Event

International Day for Reparations is marked on Monday, October 12. What does that mean for us in the Caribbean, the birthplace of the triangular slave trade? In an era of the Black Lives Matter movement, we are presented with an opportune moment to further examine this contentious issue.    

The NGC Bocas Lit Fest hosts virtual Bocas Talks Reparations for Slavery with The UWI Vice-Chancellor Professor Sir Hilary Beckles, Chairman of the Caricom Reparations Commission and Professor Andy Knight, former director of the Institute of International Relations.

Don’t miss the one-on-one conversation happening on Sunday, October 11 at 11:00 a.m. (EST) on Bocas Lit Fest’s YouTube channel and Facebook page.
