Religious Intelligence - Caribbean Bishop calls for reparations for slave trade

Religious Intelligence - News - Caribbean Bishop calls for reparations for slave trade: "FOLLOWING his call for Britain to end its “lame, half-hearted apologies” for the slave trade, the Bishop of North East Caribbean has outlined the positive action the British Government should take.

The Bishop, the Rt Rev Errol Brooks , had been speaking at a memorial service to remember the victims of the British Empire Atlantic slave trade on HMS Albion last Sunday.

Some 500 people, including local church and political leaders, gathered on its helicopter landing deck and heard Sir Richard Cheltenham, a former Cabinet minister in Barbados call for “fruits worthy of repentance as indicated in the Bible.” "
