Guyana president Irfaan Ali has lashed out at the descendants of European slave traders and says those who profited from the cruel, trans-Atlantic slave trade should offer to pay reparations to today's generations. Ali spoke ahead of Friday's planned formal apology in Guyana by the descendants of Scottish 19th-century sugar and coffee plantation owner John Gladstone. He said the apology should also include issues of compensation and reparative justice. (AP Photo/Kirsty Wigglesworth)
