    PRIME MINISTER OF BARBADOS REACTS TO CONCERN OVER DRAX HALL

  • Commenting on the findings, Laura Trevelyan, trustee, Trevelyan Grenada Reparations Fund, Honorary Associate Fellow, PJ Patterson Institute, University of the West Indies, said; "It's extremely encouraging. Polling this specific has never been done before, and as the campaign for reparatory justice grows, and awareness of the present day legacies of slavery builds, hopefully support for apology and reparations for the descendants of enslaved Africans will become more widespread. It's 190 years since the abolition of slavery in Britain - the next decade is crucial, and we must redouble our efforts to secure justice for the descendants of those who lost their liberty and all too often their lives as Britain's government sanctioned slave traders to pursue profits at all cost."

    OPEN LETTER TO PRIME MINISTER MIA AMOR MOTTLEY – “All civilian lives matter”

  • According to Ms. Mickens, sports and slavery have much in common - both built white wealth from black bodies. She noted that plantation owners saw sports as an outlet for enslaved people to suppress their anger, aggression, and hostility; they believed competition would dull their revolutionary inclination. However, for the slaves, sports, like dance, music and spiritual practices, became tools of survival to cope with a system that violently controlled every aspect of their lives.
