This week we hosted @Blackstarjus in Parliament for a packed out event, discussing everything from critical race theory to racially conscious environmentalism. It is important to promote international dialogue on true reparative justice for Africa and the global diaspora.
"No slave system that we understand thus far has ever had that deculturalisation process embedded". @kwamekweiarmah on deculturalisation, the power of narrative and the case for #ReparationsNow #UKReparationsConference23
Thank you @BellRibeiroAddy for tabling this Motion regarding our recent report on returning African artefacts & ancestral remains, noting the UK's slow progress on this, and urging government to work towards restitution and enact its key recommendations. edm.parliament.uk/early-day-moti…
The agreement forged between African & Caribbean heads of state in Accra is a significant development in the global struggle for reparative justice. Political leaders in former colonial powers can no longer ignore the growing call for reparations. theguardian.com/world/2023/nov…
At last week’s African Union Reparations Conference, African & Caribbean leaders formed a new alliance to campaign for reparations from former colonial powers. They have sent a very clear message that the case for reparations can no longer be ignored. theguardian.com/world/2023/nov…
Hundreds of people joined our inaugural reparations conference to send a message to governments of the world and institutions that profited from enslavement, colonisation & neo-colonialism: reparations now. voice-online.co.uk/news/world-new…
Hundreds of grassroots activists from across the global African diaspora gathered at the recent @appg_ar UK Reparations Conference to amplify calls for reparative justice. Thank you to everyone who contributed to an energising and engaging discussion.

Happy 40th Independence Day to Kittisians and Nevisians. On this day, in 1983, the twin island federation of St Kitts & Nevis 🇰🇳became independent of Britain, becoming the last British slave colony to do so. I am proud to be the first UK Member of Parliament of Nevisian descent
As Black Maternal Health Awareness Week begins, Black women in the UK are: 4x more likely to die from pregnancy or childbirth 2x more likely to face stillbirth 80-83% more likely to have a near miss 50% more likely to face neonatal loss 43% more likely to miscarry #BMHAW23
The "Illegal Migration Bill" would remove the 72-hour time limit on detaining pregnant refugee women, prolonging the trauma of women who have already fled some of the world's worst horrors. Not even mothers and babies are safe from this Government.
Fantastic to host the Society of Black Lawyers in Parliament this week to celebrate fifty years of breaking down barriers, working to overcome racism in the legal system and fighting for justice #NoJusticeNoPeace
