happy emancipation day! today we in the english caribbean celebrate the end of slavery, and later apprenticeship (which was slavery by another name). plantation owners and their families were compensated for the loss of their slaves, and the last payments to those families were made in 2015. that same year during a visit to jamaica then prime minister of england david cameron urged the country to move on from slavery and ruled out reparations. to the uk, to europe more broadly, give us our fucking money back.

here are 3 books that are on my booklist:

how britain underdeveloped the caribbean: a reparation response to europes legacy of plunder and poverty by hilary mcd. beckles

britain's black debt: reparations for caribbean slavery and native genocide by hilary mcd beckles

globalizing the caribbean: political economy, social change, and the transnational capitalist class by jeb sprague

‘Black women are four times more likely to die from childbirth than white women.’

Racism within the UK’s institutions is something that is being reported on more and more in the UK. The Casey Report highlighted disparities of how black people can be treated compared to white people within the police force but the NHS, another British institution, is unsurprisingly also having issues.

The Met dubbed ‘institutionally racist’ again. This time, they are urged to accept it.

Much has been said about the Casey Report, released earlier this month by Baroness Casey of Blackstock DBE CB March 2023, which details the acknowledgement of institutional racism within the Met despite the Police commissioner, Sir Mark Rowley, refusing to use the word ‘institutional’.

The report discusses the Met’s leadership, recruitment, vetting, training and culture communications. As well as the kind of support that the public should expect from the Police. And a key element is police corruption.
