Trigger Debate: 'Should Britain pay Slavery Reparations?' - Comment your questions
In Partnership Hypnozio
Tomorrow, we’re very excited to be hosting a debate on whether Britain should pay reparations to it’s former colonies and those alive today who’s ancestors were affected by Britain’s involvement in the slave trade.
Rafe Heydel-Mankoo and Professor Kehinde Andrews will be going head-to-head against each other, with Konstantin moderating, on why they think Britain should or shouldn’t pay slavery reparations.
Professor Andrews will be arguing that Britain should pay reparations, while Rafe will be arguing that Britain has no reason to do so. It will be a battle between two formidable debaters.
There will be a chance for some of your questions to be asked during and after the debate. Put them in the comments!

I am not guilty for the sins of my forefathers, therefore simply no reparations, my own ethnicity has also been subjected & suppressed through slavery most notably via the Romans, then the Vikings then victims of the Barbary slave trade into the Middle East. Given that Black Africans also participated in this trade for their own benefit the argument is baseless especially given the number of our sailors killed ending the slave trade. So NO reparations.

But haven't Britain already done that? It loaned the equivalent of 40% of the GDP to buy the slaves free from all their "masters" throughout the whole of the empire's territory. And most importantly : Britain invented the whole abolition of slavery. A society without slaves was not an idea before Britain began forbidding it. If there's a country that should be scrutinised more, it is France. It still leaches heavily from their "previous" colonies
