@Diva2022 [Ms Trevelyan said that in 1834, the Trevelyans received about £34,000 for the loss of their "property" on Grenada - the equivalent of about £3m in today's money.
"For me to be giving £100,000 almost 200 years later... maybe that seems like really inadequate," she said.]
- She's absolutely right: it is inadequate! Her personal net worth is £5m, so she both could and should do better.
She can't repair what's been done, but she should pay reparations.

@Diva2022 Throwing pennies at a massive problem their family helped create. Pfft...Anything under a couple mil is just tokenism.

@Diva2022 Apologetic words from colonizers, who exploited ppl & their lands/waters, are empty without aligned reparation actions.

@Diva2022 I feel similarly when govt politicians do shallow land acknowledgements but don't put forth any actual landback actions. They'll do that lipservice but keep sending corporate mercenaries to invade unceded native lands. It's vile.
