    [REAL TALK] Reparations & for what?

    Native Americans got ****ed over big time.
    Debts we can never repay or compensate adequately for their losses

    South Western native people lost everything
    — south western people are not white people

    my family lost land and everything that the treaty ig guadeluple hildago promised

    America has a gov where a President big chief makes a deal and it is law

    big chief decides serious matters
    Our presidents have often used the separation of powers to land grab and ruin lives

    my Wife is capable of interpretation and translation.

    On a general level, the difference between interpretation and translation is that interpretation deals with spoken language in real time while translation focuses on written content.​

    Jamaica is considering whether to seek compensation from a wealthy Conservative MP for his family's historical role in slavery.

    Richard Drax's ancestors were pioneers of the sugar and slave trades in the Caribbean about 400 years ago.

    The MP is facing demands to pay Barbados for harm caused by slavery at an estate he inherited in the country.

    Now Jamaica's National Council on Reparations is also examining the case for pressing Mr Drax for damages.


    Members of the Drax family were among the earliest English colonists to establish sugar plantations built on slave labour in Barbados and Jamaica in the Caribbean.

    A member of the Drax family received compensation when the slave trade was abolished by the British Parliament in 1833. Records show John Sawbridge Erle-Drax was awarded ?,293 12s 6d - worth ?m today - for 189 ******.

    Men and women "were brutalised in Jamaica" under the Drax name, said Verene Shepherd, director of the Centre for Reparation Research at The University of the West Indies.
