PM Mia Mottley Reparations Speech:
Barbadian Prime Minister Mia Mottley has made a strong call for reparations, emphasizing that an apology alone is not enough to atone for the brutality suffered by ancestors during the transatlantic slave trade.
At a regional forum, Mottley argued that reparations must be structured to tackle economic injustices and systemic inequalities that still impact Caribbean nations today. She urged former colonial powers to take responsibility and commit to meaningful financial and developmental programs to uplift affected communities.
With growing global discussions on reparations, Caribbean leaders continue to push for compensation, framing it as a necessary step toward economic justice.
Antonio Dey has more on this call for action.
