The Case for Repatriation and the Source of Racism

Jamaica is on the verge of formally asking the UK to pay billions in repatriation for those centuries of brutal chattel slavery.

In 1833, Britain used 40% of its national budget to buy freedom for all Britain in the empire and this sum was so large that it was not paid off until 2015.

Is there a global reckoning on the role of race and injustice in society?

If so, has it strengthened the call for reparations?

Two of the leading voices in the movement, Veteran Parliamentarian Mike Henry and Professor Clinton Hutton Senior Lecturer in the Department of Government Faculty of Social Sciences, U.W.I. joined the CVM Live Panel Discussion.
