African group of 54 nations to investigate US

The U.N. Human Rights Council resumed this week with what it billed as an “urgent debate on racism, alleged police brutality and violence against protesters.” The African Group, a U.N. regional body composed of 54 African member states, requested the meeting, saying it would be “inconceivable” for the council not to address what it described as a worldwide problem.
African countries are reportedly also circulating a draft resolution that demands an investigation into U.S. police violence and racism. 6-17-20 https://thehill.com/policy/international/503202-george-floyds-brother-calls-on-united-nations-to-study-police-brutality
