Let the Maroons pay too
Dear Editor,
February is Black History Month, and every year I await a properly researched paper on the despicable behaviour of the double-crossing Maroons who returned their brothers and sisters to slavery on behalf of the British. For this service they were amply compensated.
The treaty with the Maroons should be cancelled by the Jamaican Government, and they should be asked to pay reparations equal to the British.
The people of Jamaica ought to be fully informed.
