 Western countries increase support for slavery reparations, Ghana says Ghana, which has led a campaign for reparations for the nearly four-century-long trans-Atlantic slave trade, said on Wednesday that support ​is growing among Western countries for the effort. The campaign's first focus is ‌on restitution of looted artifacts, Ghanaian Foreign Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa told an event on reparatory justice co-hosted by Ghana, Germany and France on the sidelines of the UN General ​Assembly on Wednesday. Later stages could include formal apologies, debt relief and ​financial compensation under a 19-point plan adopted by the African Union ⁠and the Caribbean Community Commission on Reparatory Justice at a conference in Ghana ​in June. The UN passed a resolution in March recognizing trans-Atlantic slavery as "the gravest ​crime against humanity" with 123 votes in favor and three — from the US, Israel and Argentina — against.

 Los Angeles County declares emergency over immigration enforcement raids

Los Angeles County officials voted Tuesday to declare a state of emergency in response to ongoing federal immigration raids.

The declaration allows the county to provide financial and legal assistance to residents affected by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) actions. Introduced by Supervisors Lindsey P. Horvath and Janice Hahn, the measure passed 4-1, with Supervisor Kathryn Barger opposing.

Los Angeles County, home to more than 3 million immigrants, has seen widespread fear from the raids, according to supervisors. Officials said the operations have disrupted workplaces, local economies, and essential services, including schools, hospitals, and places of worship. Provisions in the emergency declaration include rent relief for tenants impacted by the raids and funding for legal aid and other supportive services.

The vote allows county leaders to mobilize resources, request state and federal aid, and expedite contracts to address the crisis. “What’s happening in our communities is an emergency — and Los Angeles County is treating it like one,” Horvath said. “Declaring a Local Emergency ensures that the full weight of County government is aligned to support our immigrant communities who are being targeted by federal actions.”

ICE raids began in Los Angeles in early June, prompting demonstrations, some of which turned violent. While officials initially said the deportations would focus on undocumented immigrants with criminal records, recent data show an increasing number of migrants without criminal convictions have also been arrested.

“For months, families have lived under threat and workers have been taken from job sites,” Horvath added. “This proclamation is about action and speed — it allows us to move faster, coordinate better, and use every tool available to protect and stabilize our communities. We will continue to stand with our immigrant neighbors — today, and for as long as it takes.”

The emergency declaration will remain in effect until the county board decides to end it.
