Britain was not the first country in the world to ban slavery — Haiti and Denmark were earlier. But the British, after several hundred years of helping to expand slavery, did beat the United States by several decades, and did pay reparations — to plantation owners.

CNN royal commentator and global business consultant Hilary Fordwich took anchor Don Lemon by surprise when she said reparations for slavery should be paid — by Africans.

One facet of the wall-to-wall coverage of the queen’s death has been uncomfortable conversations about British colonialism, and this segment was no exception, as Fordwich appeared to take exception to the suggestion that the Crown owes reparations for its history in that regard. She argued it is Africans who should pay reparations.
