On Monday, The UN rights chief called for countries to do more to dismantle systemic racism against black people, urging acknowledgement and reparations for past wrongs. 

Speaking before the UN Human Rights Council, Michelle Bachalet described how deeply embedded racism against Africans and people of African descent continues to affect all aspects of their lives. 

In her report, which addressed systemic racism worldwide, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights also called on countries to confront the legacies of the transatlantic slave trade and colonialism. 

She insisted that only by facing the wrongs of the past could countries hope to “transform the structures, institutions, and behaviours that lead to direct or indirect discrimination.”
