#Reparations
I would have stayed in school if this man or someone like him was my teacher! I fled school because of my lack of connection to the instructions and the brutal, savage corporal punishment that was the culture in kindergarten and primary school at the time.
Magnificent, a Master Class!🖤👏🏾
Sir Hilary Beckles, I'm beyond honored to have discovered your voice & message today! Being Bajan Canadian, having won a math and science scholarship to college at 8yo & an executrix of land in Barbados, it's long been my desire to utilize the inherited land in a manner that might uplift and better the lives of youth. Thank you!!! I hope to be fortunate enough to meet you one day, Sir.
One of the greatest presentations I've ever heard.,heartfelt is the word.
Impressive library !
Are you related to Lorna Beckles that grew up in Birmingham, UK in the 1970s?
She is about 64 years old. I believe she or her parents are from Barbados. My parents are from Jamaica.
Great lecture, thank you.

Dude has books. Damn. And a posh Carib accent.
As America and the World became less dependent on manual labor American Descendants of Slavery(ADOS) working poor are becoming massively illiterate with extremely poor health,and the inability to pursue community economic development in an orderly sustainable fashion.
The only way we are going to have a sustainable truly upward mobile “Black” society, especially Black(ADOS), presence in the US is by developing an unapologetically Black economic system financed collectively by the Black Neighborhoods,
Due to the enormity of our sustainable transformative agenda we need to have a buy-in by a cadre of Black professionals willing to use their expertise gained in building America to roll up their sleeves and step up as in-kind Servant Leaders and reimagine systems designed to support a democratically run cooperative with employee runned businesses jointly owned by the employees and Tru X, Federation of cooperatives.
In 10 years Tru X will be a nation wide interwoven fabric of horizontal, vertical, and complementary networks of cooperatives that support each other and join communities logistically and economically.
