UK: British Museum Faces Renewed Calls to Return Cultural Relics! (7.9.2023)

“They are the subject of loot. They were illegally taken out of the country,” Tijani said. He demanded the British Museum give back the Benin Bronzes, which British forces took in 1897.

“It is irrespective whether they are safe there. That is not an issue. The issue is that these are stolen artefacts, and they should be returned to Nigeria to the communities that they belong to,” he added.

The Case of Judge Tracie Hunter! (12.7.2023)

This lady possesses the education and status that working-class people do not – and has been able to defend herself in a manner that the average worker would be unable to do. She has stood her moral ground when the entire ‘White’ system was against her! Today, the KKK, White Lives Matter, the Aryan Brotherhood and the New Patriot Movement, etc, (all comprised of a small bigoted ‘White’ minority from South Texas), have replaced the noose for collective physical and online action!

Nuclear Water Discharge: IAEA Denies Endorsement of Japan “Fukushima” Discharge Plan! (5.7.2023)

The IAEA will have a continued presence at the Fukushima Daiichi plant site to review, monitor and assess the discharge activities for decades to come, Grossi said, adding that whether to allow other countries to participate in the supervision is a decision to be made by the Japanese government.

During Grossi’s press conference, a group of protestors gathered outside the Japan National Press Club to voice opposition to Japan’s ocean discharge plan, shouting “The sea belongs to mankind.

At the invitation of Japan’s foreign ministry, Grossi started his four-day visit to Japan on Tuesday, including a trip to the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
