ACS Arizona: Britain’s Slavery Debt, Reparations and the Responsibility of Universities

In his book, Britain’s Slavery Debt: Reparations Now! Michael Banner argues that Britain owes reparations to the Caribbean for the period of enslavement and colonialism. In this talk he will briefly outline the argument he makes, while focusing on the particular responsibility and opportunity which universities may have in advancing the case for reparations. He will relate this discussion to similar proposals in the United States.
