I am pleased to be speaking about the land-focused #PlanetRepairs activism of the #ISMAR as part of a panel discussion on 'Land as #Reparations & How to get there' for the #JusticeHub at the Oxford Real Farming Conference @ORFC today...
"Both (@LauraTrevelyan @LabourLewis) are considered experts" on #Reparations according to this article in the @NewStatesman. Really???
#EducationIsPreparationForReparations They do NOT speak for us!
Should Britain pay slavery reparations? @NewStatesman reviews the new podcast Heirs of Enslavement by @persephonica and asks the same question @labourlewis and I are exploring. newstatesman.com/culture/202…

A must read thread. There is a lack of critical analysis to the @CariReparations @CARICOMorg approach to #Reparations. Many if us big it up as the way forward w/out realising it's something about us without us! #EliteCapture #Counterinsurgency Support @STOPMAANGAMIZI instead!
Yes but reparations to whom? Reparations 4 existing Caribbean states or Afrikan people that were trafficked to the 'Americas' & elsewhere. In under 10 years what has ALWAYS been a #GlobalAfrikan claim has been reduced to a 'Caribbean' one which excludes #AfrikanHeritage Diasporas

Unfortunately when we ovastand the nature of Global white hegemony, it's far from shocking. Question is, what do we do about it since our protestations have fallen on soft white power deaf ears? Are we ready to build our own Higher Ed Institution as part of #Maatubuntujamaa UK?
Shocking news about Prof @hakimadi1, PhD supervisor of my research into the history of the International Social Movement for Afrikan Reparations (#ISMAR) in the UK see this video for an ISMAR analysis! bit.ly/ProfHakimAdiPA… @ParcoeInfo @STOPMAANGAMIZI @ReparationMarch

Having been involved in co-organising London's first marking of the 23rd of August in between 2003 & 2007, it was an ancestral duty to participate in the @MayorofLondon & CAG organised commemoration of this key date in the commencement of the #AfrikanRevolution in #Haiti
Today City Hall marked the UNESCO Day for Remembering the Transatlantic Slave Trade and its Abolition. This cross-party event provides an opportunity to reflect on the injustices of the slave trade, while recognising those who resisted & helped bring about justice & change. 1/2

Kidnapping is also a relevant term here where Genocide is a consequence. #Reparations education in UK is woefully low and minimised to finance and apologies. Pls invite our spokesperson @Xosei to set the record straight on your show. Come on 1st Aug to Windrush Sq to learn more!
@mrjamesob don't dehumanise us further by referring to our people as slaves or descendants of #Slaves. We're Afrikan people.Trade implies consensual equitable exchange.This wasn't that! Transatlantic Trafficking of Enslaved Afrikans is a preferred term.
Emancipation Day shouldn't be marked in the UK because it is a fallacy. It is not even an aspiration. Ways of bondage have evolved & not been eradicated. We do not celebrate but see 1st Aug as a day to elevate calls for a #Reparations Commission of Inquiry & work we do on #repair
When #Reparations isn't really Reparations:
"Rather, the practice of “repair” will be extended only to the elite cadres of private sector financiers, consultants, and scholars. Perhaps more than a top-down model — in which paltry “benefits” purportedly trickle down to the masses"
Today, for @CaribbeanClash, I wrote about the unseemly collaboration between the CARICOM Reparations Commission and Digicel founder Denis O’Brien. I trace the origins of O’Brien’s fortune, his ventures in Jamaica and Haiti, and his turn to reparations. medium.com/clash-voices-for-…

This is how you do it! @LauraTrevelyan @HeirsofSlavery
As a member of the Unlearning Racism Collective attending the Reparations Training Weekend with RJN’s patron @Xosei
Maia, one of our co-ordinator learnt more about how white people can engage in and support the Pan-Afrikan Movement for Reparations.
Here’s just a few of them ⤵️

Dr #WalterRodney quote is relevant to the struggle 4 #AfrikanReparations: "A struggle doesn’t drop from the sky; it has roots, it has been going on for years; people’s energies, their consciousness, their organizations have evolved in response to specific historical conditions"
