Description

As Barbados marks the Season of Emancipation, this episode of Jus’ Ah Conversation brings the conversation full circle — from colonial history to contemporary calls for justice.

We explore the Caribbean’s ongoing push for reparations from former colonial powers, asking what reparations truly mean in today’s world. Is it about money? Apologies? Institutional reform? Cultural revival? Our guests unpack the moral, legal, economic, and emotional layers of a movement that continues to grow in strength and urgency.

🎙️ Featuring:

  • Ambassador David Comissiong – Barbados’ Ambassador to CARICOM and a key voice in the regional reparations movement
  • Trevor Prescod – Cultural advocate, parliamentarian, and longtime reparations campaigner
  • Rodney Grant – Community leader and creative activist

Together, they dive deep into:

  • Why reparations matter — and to whom
  • What form justice could realistically take
  • The intersections between history, power, and lived experience
  • How the Caribbean can shape the global reparations conversation

This is more than just reflection — it’s about reclaiming legacy, truth, and dignity.
