Laura Trevelyan leaves the BBC to campaign for Caribbean reparatory justice

📅 16 March 2023 📍 Grenada

The Guardian reported that Laura Trevelyan had resigned from the BBC to work full-time on reparatory justice advocacy after her family's Grenada apology and £100,000 contribution. Trevelyan said she intended to support wider Caribbean claims and encourage other families connected to slave ownership to confront their histories. The development extended the Grenada apology into a broader organizing effort, but individual advocacy and private donations remained distinct from negotiations with Britain or reparations by governments and institutions that profited from slavery.
