One Caribbean Nation.                Deryck Thomas                                                 By William Skinner Sweet Drinks: A High School Friendship and Memories Back in the sixties, while a student at the famous Modern High School located on Roebuck Street, Deryck Thomas and I developed a wonderful friendship that remains wonderfully intact. Deryck’s father, worked in a managerial/ supervisory capacity at what we called the Coke factory, which was situated extremely close to our school.

One Caribbean Nation. UN slavery resolution hailed as reparations campaign watershed By Ricardo Roberts Ambassador to CARICOM David Comissiong has hailed a United Nations resolution describing the transatlantic slave trade as a "grievous crime against humanity" as a landmark victory for the global quest for reparatory justice, saying it cements the Caribbean's case for reparations on firm legal and historical ground. The resolution, passed by 123 member nations on Wednesday, calls for the return of stolen cultural artefacts, the establishment of a global reparations fund, and increased public education through agencies such as UNESCO. The United States joined with Israel and Argentina to vote against the resolution while 52 other countries, including all of Europe's former colonial powers that captured and enslaved millions of Africans, abstained. In an exclusive interview with Barbados TODAY, Amb Comissiong emphasised that while the journey began in earnest at the ...
