This is why history of our people in the diaspora needs to be told again and again because the younger generation do not know our history. Thank you!

Africa Aware :
Did you know the UK government was paying off debt for "slavery reparations" until 2015? But the money didn't go to the victims. Speaking at an Intelligence Squared debate, Kehinde Andrews breaks down a staggering historical reality: when Britain abolished slavery in 1833, the government took out a massive loan to compensate the slave owners for their "loss of property." That debt was so large it wasn't fully paid off by the British Treasury until 2015. This means generations of everyday taxpayers including the Windrush generation and the modern-day descendants of enslaved people were effectively footing the bill to enrich former enslavers for over 180 years.
