RE: Explore the history of the slave trade and its deep impact on the history of Mauritius

It looks like it will be a national treasure for all to learn and be guided by. When you say that all citizens, no matter the nationality, live in harmony there, it's a testament to the efforts of all concerned to foster peace and acceptance. All humans are equal. No matter what. As a descendant of slaves brought to the U.S. during the Atlantic Slave Trade in the early 1800s, it's important to see recognition given to those group of people here and elsewhere and never forget they were taken and forced into servitude.
Take care.

I too believe it will be a national treasure to the island. I come to Mauritius each year and will visit again next year to see how it developes. It's such an important isue. The decendants of the slaves really deserves this recognition.
Throughout the years, various organizations have asked for reparations, but that will never happen.
