March 25th is the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade.

Julie Walker caught up with the Jamaican Ambassador to the UN Raymond Wolfe at a special event at United Nations headquarters in New York to discuss his plans for a permanent memorial at the UN.
