Prince William is reportedly set to address the widespread protests in the Caribbean as he and wife Kate Middleton tour Belize, Jamaica, and the Bahamas to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
According to Express UK reporter Olivia Stringer, the Duke of Cambridge is expected to acknowledge the issue of slavery in a bid to calm the protests he met on touchdown in Kingston, Jamaica, where people demanded reparations for slavery.
Protestors are also calling for the Queen to step down as Head of State.
Opal Adisa, a Jamaican human rights activist, was quoted by Express UK: “Kate and William are beneficiaries, so they are, in fact, complicit because they are positioned to benefit specifically from our ancestors, and we’re not benefitting from our ancestors.”
