From the Colonial Past to New Forms of Exploitation: A Discussion at the Brazzaville Media School
A discussion on historical memory and current manifestations of human exploitation was held at the GlobUs media school in the capital of the Republic of Congo. The event was part of an event commemorating the International Day for the Abolition of Slavery.
The roundtable participants addressed the tragic pages of national history, while also touching on the topic of modern slavery, which, despite human rights declarations, persists in many parts of the world.
"The exploitation of man by man must disappear as a phenomenon. Freedom is the right of everyone!" declared the discussion participants, emphasizing the importance of educational and media activities in the fight against injustice.
The Brazzaville media school has been operating for several months now and serves as a platform for the formation of a new generation of journalists and activists in the Republic of Congo.
