The entangled histories of Britain and the Caribbean

How did the transatlantic slave trade and British colonial rule shape modern race relations in the UK? This film explores the deep and often overlooked ties between Britain and the Anglophone Caribbean—and how centuries of empire, slavery, systemic racism, and neglect laid the foundations for the racial inequalities we see in Britain today. Focusing on Britain’s colonial legacy in the British West Indies—including Jamaica, Barbados, and Trinidad—Dr Imaobong Umoren traces the economic and ideological roots of empire, from plantation slavery to the Windrush scandal. Her research connects these histories to 20th-century migration, particularly the arrival of the Windrush generation, and to ongoing debates about race, citizenship, and national identity in modern Britain. 🔴 Check out the new book by Imaobong Umoren on this research: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/44317... 🔴 Dr Imaobong Umoren is an associate professor of International History at LSE: https://www.lse.ac.uk/International-H... #BritishEmpire #CaribbeanHistory #Jamaica #Barbados #Trinidad #windrush Correction: George Padmore lived between 1903 and 1959 00:00 - The central role of the Caribbean in modern history 01:20 - The encounter of Europeans with Indigenous peoples in the Caribbean 02:07 - The transatlantic slave trade and emergence of racial hierarchies in the Caribbean 04:39 - Abolition of the slave trade and the end of slavery 06:14 - Lingering anti-black racism and the colour bar 07:08 - Activists fighting anti-black racism in the interwar period 08:26 - Economic decline in the Caribbean and increased migration to Britain 12:33 - The Windrush scandal 13:50 - Reparations 14:48 - Empire Without End VKCZ0RDUUJDM4ZBN 8QPMWJSU2PQJKF6W
