  • Summary

  • Clive Lewis and Laura Trevelyan have heard about the legacies left behind by enslavement in the Caribbean - but what do people in the West Indies actually want reparatory justice to address?


    In this episode, they hear about the specific needs of Grenada and beyond - illiteracy, poverty, healthcare and more. Clive and Laura visit the Grenada Community and Resource Library to see firsthand how important education resources are to the island. They speak to Arley Gill, chair of Grenada’s national reparations committee, and to Russell Fielden, a Brit-turned-Grenadian and local entrepreneur.
