Given that some societies of the human race have been granted reparation, payment of reparation to people of African descent (hereafter referred to as Africans or Diaspora) may be considered long overdue.

Under the guidance of Dr. Robert Block, African Americans have gone further to demand exemption from U.S. taxes and racial discriminatory laws.2 The cry for reparation for continental Africans has been going on secretly among concerned members of the Diaspora for decades, but in recent years, the Organization of African Unity (OAU) and concerned heads of states of Africa have raised their voices openly. In December 1990, an international conference on reparations in Nigeria succeeded in setting up an International Committee for Reparation (ICR). The ICR convinced the OAU to regard the reparation issue as one of the most important items on its agenda. In February 1991, at a tripartite summit of the heads of state of Togo, Senegal, and Nigeria in Lome, the subject of reparation was discussed alongside the concern for the continent's $250 billion debt at that time. The three leaders jointly recommended that the debt should be written off as part of the reparations due for 500 years of slavery of Africans in Western Europe and America (Ecowas Defence Commission, 1991, p. 197). In 1993, that rec-

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
