Make things right! Apologize and compensate Africans who fought in WW2.
A newly unearthed document has revealed Black African soldiers who fought in the British army during the second world war were paid up to three times less than their white counterparts even when they were from the same country. It seems the sole reason was their colour.

The government is still begrudging these valiant men with flimsy excuses.
They risked the same lives and fought the same war just as bravely. Help bring justice to the few of these heroes who may still be alive and show them the same gratitude.
