did king's college own slaves

King’s College

A substantial amount of wealth derived from slavery in the Caribbean underpinned the foundation of King’s College London in 1829. Should King’s follow the example of the University of Glasgow, which in August 2019 announced it would commit 20 million pounds to reparations? What are the arguments for reparations? In what creative ways might King’s meet this challenge and acknowledge its debts to the Caribbean, Africa and the African diaspora? Join the conversation!
