Assata Shakur, who passed at 78 in Havana after decades in exile, remains one of the most polarizing figures in history—a terrorist to some, a freedom fighter to others. We explore her legacy of resilience through imprisonment, exile, and sacrifice, and how her story forces us to question who controls history.
Meanwhile, Ghana’s president delivers a bold call at the UN, declaring the transatlantic slave trade “the greatest crime against humanity” and reigniting conversations on reparations, restitution, and accountability. Will acknowledgment alone ever be enough?
