"Repair is the most important lesson of our world..." Looking forwards to hearing from Sydni Scott today. A reminder of today's agenda: appg-ar.org/uk-reparations-c… #RepCon25 #UKReparationsConference

Prof. Gus John asks how do we repair Black British children who have been disconnected from their history? Since Labour is now doing a curriculum review they need to include material on the African Maangamizi. #UKReparationsConference

Dr Garvey on the need to build a just & equal society. Talked about the neocolonial socio-economic traps that continue to maintain poverty in Africa. ‘This system of capitalism is continued by a highly militarised group’. Need a tribunal on reparations. #UKReparationsConference

Esther Xosei (Stop the Maangamizi) - Chief Abiola helped fund Bernie Grant MP and the reparations movement. We have to be careful to safeguard and repair our own epistemology. “We cannot call it a slave trade”. It was a holocaust-genocide. Maangamizi. #UKreparationsconference

BRibeiro-Addy MP “We cannot praise the arsonist for putting out the fire”? (On Britain ending slavery).Demands for reparations are about respect/equality. CLewis MP: corporations, not constituents, should be resp. for reparations.This is a class issue. #UKReparationsConference
