WASHINGTON, DC – From January 19th to the 29th, the United Nations Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent is visiting the United States on a fact-finding mission concerning the human rights of people of African descent. This is the second visit from the Working Group, who also visited the U.S. in 2010. The Working Group experts will be meeting with government officials, non-governmental organizations, and people of African descent to examine and make recommendations on the situation of people of African descent in the United States. The Working Group visit comes before the United States undergoes a follow up review by the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD) in April 2016. http://www.ushrnetwork.org/resources-media/ushrn-press-release-unwgepad-visit
