Caracas, October 1 (teleSUR-RHC)-- Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said Wednesday that his visit to the United States showed U.S. citizens support Venezuela and the “campaigns of hate” against the Latin American country have failed. Maduro further praised the welcoming support he received during his stay in New York City. “North American citizens and other nationalities showed their support for Venezuela while we walked through the streets of New York,” he said. While in New York for the 70th session of the United Nations General Assembly, Maduro met with leaders from the Black community in Harlem on Monday, discussing various issues including police brutality and structural racism. During the People of African Descent Leadership Summit, President Maduro listened to a panel of activists and experts discuss the current socio-economic challenges faced by Black communities in the United States. In response, the Venezuelan leader expressed solidarity with the victims of police brutality and discriminatory policing tactics. “From South America, please believe me when I tell you, that we have also suffered along with you against this old narrative of racism, which continues to afflict our people,” Maduro stated. During his speech, President Maduro highlighted the need to form “a new radical consciousness of humanism” in efforts to combat racial inequalities. Leading up to the conference, President Maduro also took time to meet with representatives from sectors of the U.S. labor movement.
