This web site is dedicated to the millions of Africans who contributed the centuries of unpaid labour upon which the Western World advanced, which countries repaid the slaves and their descendants with hatred, discrimination, and contempt. In the West of Africa, the Atlantic African Slave Trade, and in the South of Africa, Apartheid, were crimes against humanity. Both these crimes inflicted harm against the Black Peoples of Africa and of African descent, which had as a prime supporter, Britain, and other states which profited from these criminal enterprises. The sufferings and consequences continue to this day. Shackling of an African Slave Trade descendant occasioned under British Jurisdiction.
Colonialism is dead and buried.
It is alive and well in a few far flung corners of the world still under British colonial subjugation. From the Pitcairn Islands in the Pacific, to the Turks and Caicos Islands in the Caribbean, colonial neglect and abuse thrive to this day. The majority of the people of the Turks and Caicos Islands are descendants of African slaves. The status of the majority population, from the standard of education to the economic location of the people of African descendant relative to the least of minor British civil servants sent to govern the colony, is that of second to third class citizens. Three million pounds was donated by Britain in the early 1990s for the building of a new prison, in the capital, Grand Turk.
