Laura Trevelyan on the Importance of Reparations
17m 36s
In a historic move, former BBC journalist Laura Trevelyan and her family recently made public apology for their ancestral ownership of more than 1,000 slaves on the Caribbean island of Grenada. Trevelyan, now a full-time advocate for reparative justice, has offered a £100,000 donation. She joins Michel Martin to discuss the importance of reparations.
