  • Lemon interviewed Hilary Fordwich last week, in a clip that went viral on Tuesday

  • But Fordwich questioned his reasoning and placed the blame on African leaders
  • She argued that any reparations should be paid by descendants of 'African kings'

CNN anchor Don Lemon was at a loss for words after a royal commentator told him slavery reparations are necessary - but said they should be paid by the descendants of 'African kings' who sold their own people into slavery. 

Lemon interviewed Hilary Fordwich on September 13, following Queen Elizabeth II's death, and suggested the British royal family should pay reparations for the trans-Atlantic slave trade.

In the interview, which went viral on Twitter this week, Fordwich responded by arguing that African leaders were responsible for supplying millions of enslaved people to European slave traders, saying that reparations should come from African nations.

Mar 11, 2018 1789 SPEECH ON SLAVERY by William Wilberforce - FULL AudioBook | GreatestAudioBooks - A powerful speech by the masterful orator and British parliamentarian William Wilberforce through which he reveals the truths of the slave trade, rebukes those who advocate the practice, and vows to end it.

William Wilberforce (24 August 1759 – 29 July 1833) was an English politician, philanthropist, and a leader of the movement to end the slave trade. A native of Kingston upon Hull, Yorkshire, he began his political career in 1780, eventually becoming an independent Member of Parliament for Yorkshire (1784–1812). In 1785, he became an evangelical Christian, which resulted in major changes to his lifestyle and a lifelong concern for reform.
