Priority for slave descendant

- Georgetown University in the US capital Washington will give priority to the descendants of slaves who were held by the university or college which has benefited otherwise.

The scheme involves apologies, the establishment of an institute for the study of slavery in the US and a monument to slavery. Also some of the university buildings are renamed, for example, a slave held by Georgetown.

Many US universities have admitted their ties to slavery and it apologized for, but a special arrangement for the descendants of slaves is unique. Critics point out, however, that its success depends entirely on how active Georgetown will look for the descendants.
