  • Report on the Talk by Ms Kerry Mccarthy MP
    Report on the Talk by Ms Kerry McCarthy MP Friday 18th September 2020 By Tara Arvind (Year 9) On the 18th of September, Labour MP Ms Kerry McCarthy talked to Year 9 pupils at Colston's School about Black Lives Matter. As an MP she represents Bristol East in Parliament. She was first elected in 2005 and has been elected to parliament five times. Ms McCarthy highlighted that Black Lives Matter is important for Bristol especially because of the city's connection with the slave trade, and the profit the city made from it. Firstly, she recalled that the Bristol Bus Boycott was about an 'outlawed discrimination on the grounds of race and colour'. She referred to Colston Hall, and how some bands didn't want to play there since the demonstration that led to the removal of Edward Colston's statue. She said that as society changes, parliament will need to make changes that reflect the state of society. She stated that changing the law doesn't necessarily mean anything and that it doesn't stop racism in itself but that you have to actually change people's hearts to be able to make a change. Ms McCarthy said that she agreed with BLM and she thought it was important. She thinks that people used racism as an opportunity to remove the statue of Edward Colston. However, she also feels that symbolic acts as such have more power than speeches and research. Even though it might be criminal damage, the Mayor couldn't condone the criminal damage because other people might think it is fine to choose to break the law.

  • The Fall of Edward Colston and the Rise of Inclusive Place-Based Leadership by Professor Richard Bolden
    The Fall of Edward Colston and the Rise of Inclusive Place-Based Leadership By Professor Richard Bolden Posted on the Bristol Leadership and Change Centre blog, 15/06/2020 https://blogs.uwe.ac.uk/leadership-and-change/the-fall-of-edward-colston-and-the-rise-of-inclusive-place- based-leadership/ The killing of George Floyd by a police officer in Minneapolis, USA on 25th May 2020 triggered a wave of protests about racial inequality that have spread around the world. In my home city of Bristol, UK the Black Lives Matter march on 7th June led to the toppling of the statue of Edward Colston, a 17th-century slave trader whose sculpture had stood in pride of place in the city centre for 125 years. The ironic fact that the bronze cast was then dragged to the quayside and unceremoniously dumped into the water at almost precisely the same place as his ships had docked over three hundred years ago did not go unnoticed1. Colston, who was born in Bristol in 1636 and lived there for much of his life, made his fortune as a merchant - initially trading wine, fruits and cloth before becoming involved in the slave trade. From 1680-1692 he worked for the Royal Africa Company, which held a monopoly for trading along Africa’s west coast, serving as deputy governor from 1689 to 1690. During his time at the company around 84,000 Africans were transported into slavery, with an estimated 19,000 perishing in the process2. Despite his involvement in this abhorrent trade, Colston was widely celebrated for endowing significant sums of money to local schools, hospitals, alms- houses and churches.

The Black Lives Matter protests swept the world after images of police officers killing George Floyd were recorded in the US on 25 May. They took aim at institutional racism, but also at some of the very visible vestiges of slavery in the form of monuments and statues celebrating historical figures who had, in their time, benefitted from the slave trade. In Bristol, things had been brewing for years concerning the acknowledgement of city patron Colston’s involvement with the Royal African Company.

  • Edward Colston - Timeline of Dissent and Protest 1920 to 2020
    1 Edward Colston - Timeline of dissent and protest 1920 to 2020 Summary – Timeline Post-World War I (1920-1945) 1920s 1920 – Rev. H. J. Wilkins publishes a comprehensive history of Edward Colston highlighting his leading role in the transatlantic slave trade and his political and religious bigotry. [1] 7 July 1922 – Wilkins writes to the Western Daily Press stating that “Party political considerations gave Edward Colston his pre-eminence” and proposing a general celebration of benefactors, a ‘Commemoration day for Bristol’ - not just Edward Colston. [2] 1925 – Wilkins publishes a supplement to his history of Colston exposing his role as a money-lender and criticising the “unhistorical and ill-proportioned position Bristol has given to Edward Colston”. [3] 3 November 1925 – An editorial in the Western Daily Press refers to the publication of Rev. H. J. Wilkins supplement to his history of Edward Colston. The editorial supports Wilkins in arguing that Colston Day excludes many other Bristolians “deserving of being remembered” and suggests that the day “shall be still more radically altered so that instead of being devoted to singing the praises of one illustrious citizen it shall be used for paying tribute to many who have found a place in local history”. [4] 14 November 1927 – Dean of Bristol attempts to defend Edward Colston in a sermon at the Colston Day celebrations in Bristol Cathedral. The Dean “laid special emphasis upon the necessity of placing Colston’s connection with the slave-trade and money lending against the historical background of his day”. [5] 1930s 13 November 1930 – During his sermon on Colston Day at the Cathedral the Rev.
