Reparations Utilizing International Instruments with Siphiwe Balenta

Human Rights and Justice host Nkechi Taifa dives in with Siphiwe Balenta, President of the Balenta Society in America, on intersecting issues of international law and diplomacy, reparations, DNA and justice.  Baleka, amongst other international instruments, is using the mandate of the Permanent Forum on People of Africa Descent to request an advisory opinion from the International Court of Justice on the status of Black people as Prisoners of War under the Geneva Convention, with a remedy for repair being reparatory justice. A graduate of Yale University, Siphiwe Baleka’s rich history in preserving his ancestral culture and language in Guinea Bissau stands on the shoulders of his career as a World Class swimmer as well as Fitness Guru to the Trucking Industry.
