UN classes slave trade as 'gravest crime against humanity' The UN General Assembly has passed the resolution on transatlantic slavery despite opposition from the US and European countries.

The UK & EU abstained from the #UN non-binding (!) resolution on recognising the trafficking of enslaved Africans as the "gravest crime against humanity”. As if this had nothing to do w/ their #colonial and enslaving history & legacies.

The US, Israel and Argentina even voted against it!

Eswatini: Mill Workers Fight Back On 29 March 1963, 150 sawmill workers at Peak Timber in what is now Eswatini went on strike demanding more pay. A further strike erupted at the mill on May 28, when 300 workers at the mill went on strike for a few hours in protest against the retrenchment of five workers after a small part of the plant was closed. There was further unrest on June 17, when workers gathered in support of a strike of workers at the nearby Havelock mine, after which 63 workers were arrested.

The Puritan Twins | Lucy Fitch Perkins Audiobook | Colonial America, Pilgrim Life & Historical Adventure for All Ages ✝️ Catholic Star-Rated Review ★★★★☆ (4 / 5 Stars) In The Puritan Twins, Lucy Fitch Perkins presents a charming and educational glimpse into early colonial New England through the eyes of two children. The story highlights daily life, hardships, and the strong sense of community among the Puritans. From a Catholic perspective, the book offers valuable lessons in discipline, family life, and perseverance. While the Puritan worldview differs significantly from Catholic theology—particularly in its austerity and theological framework—the emphasis on moral formation, obedience, and industrious living resonates in many respects. Accessible and engaging, this audiobook is especially well-suited for younger audiences or families seeking wholesome historical storytelling with moral undertones. A gentle and informative introduction to early American life.

When this staff finial was made, the Congo was ruled by a rapacious colonial power, Belgium. Belgian rule in the Congo (1885–1960) began with King Leopold II’s brutal, private "Congo Free State" (1885–1908), notorious for atrocities, forced labor, and millions of deaths for rubber profit. It became a formal Belgian colony in 1908, marked by a "colonial trinity" of state, missionary, and corporate control, focusing on resource extraction until independence. The tribes of the Congo were in turn ruled by their own leaders who demanded regalia to assert their power and authority over others by the use of chief staffs, etc. This is one example of such artwork.
