Burton said he looked at the commemoration service as an opportunity for healing and reconcili- ation. He said the group chose to perform the song, ‘There Is A Balm In Gilead’ with the hope that ‘as people listen they will hear that God is willing to heal, forgive our sins and make us whole.’ Robin Taylor- Hunt, the great, great, great grand- son of William Wilberforce, in a letter to The Times newspaper, complemented ‘the wonderful A news roundup of special events staged in Britain to commemorate the bicentenary of the singing of the black Adventist Abolition of the Slave Trade Vocal Ensemble’ as part of ‘an by Victor Hulbert, Communication director, BUC outstandingly nuanced, balanced and creative act of worship’. dventists believe in freedom of ‘Amazing Grace’ in real life. reality of how Britain was a ‘major This followed a special edition of and the bicentenary of the Historic Westminster Abbey beneficiary of slavery’; yet it was Songs of Praise two days earlier in Abolition of the Slave Trade hosted a service on Tuesday, 27 also the British who ‘led the struggle which the Ensemble joined together AAct on 25 March 1807 gave March to commemorate the bicente- to abolish the system’.

She had cursed him and his descendants, yet in a recent visit to Gambia had met up with Andrew Hawkins, a descendant of the infamous sea captain.

  • “Amazing Grace” Starring Ioan Gruffudd, Albert Finney, & Michael
    “Amazing Grace” starring Ioan Gruffudd, Albert Finney, & Michael Gambon, 2006, PG, 118 minutes Major Themes: Slavery Freedom Perseverance & Faith Justice & Reform Politics Interesting info: Tagline – Every song has its story. Every generation has its hero. William Wilberforce (1759 – 1833) was a very gifted statesman, a social reformer, a philanthropist and an evangelical Christian. As well as working to bring about the end of the slave trade, and then to abolish slavery itself, he was concerned about mistreatment of animals (he was a founder member of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, later to become the RSPCA), education, the social impact of heavy gin drinking, and the need for missionaries in various parts of the world, including India and Africa (he was a founder of the Church Missionary Society and the British and Foreign Bible Society). Amazing Grace is the most honored and recorded song of all time. Amazon.com lists some 2000 currently available recordings of Amazing Grace. Nothing else comes remotely close. It crosses all lines—from classical to country, from rock to traditional folk. It is permanently ingrained in the culture. No other song has enjoyed such diverse rendering. He headed the parliamentary campaign against the British slave trade for 26 years until the passage of the Slave Trade Act 1807, when Parliament passed a bill to abolish the slave trade. (The film’s release is a way of marking the bicentennial of that event.) Some years later, just three days before Wilberforce’s death, slavery itself was completely abolished in Britain. Part of his epitaph in Westminster Abbey reads: In the prosecution of these objects he relied, not in vain, on God.

  • The Writings of Ladies' Abolitionist Societies in Britain, Anna Wood "In Taking a View of the Means Which May Be Employed W
    The Writings of Ladies' Abolitionist Societies in Britain, 1825-1833 Anna Wood "In taking a view of the means which may be employed with advantage to effect the mitigation and ultimate extinction of NEGRO SLAVERY, it would be unpardonable to overlook THE LADIES OF THE UNITED KINGDOM, of all classes, and especially of the upper ranks, who have now an opportunity of exerting themselves beneficially in behalf of the most deeply injured of the human race." 1 On April 8, 1825, in the home of Lucy Townsend, the wife of an Anglican clergyman, forty four women gathered to establish the first women's anti-slavery society in Britain. Its initial name was the Ladies Society for the Relief of Negro Slaves, but later adopted the name Female Society for Birmingham. This society was committed to the "Amelioration of the Condition of the Unhappy Children of Africa, and especially of Female Negro Slaves."2 This formation preceded that of the first abolition society in the United States, the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society, by seven years.3 The Birmingham society actively helped other societies form through various religious network connections. They "acted more like a national than a local society, actively promoting the foundation of local women's societies throughout England, and in Wales and Ireland, 1 Negro Slavery, to the Ladies of the United Kingdom, London, 1 824, Slavery and Anti Slavery, Gale, Wichita State University Libraries (DS 103 7001 86). 2 Clare Midgley, Women Against Slavery: The British Campaigns, 1780-1870 (London: Routledge, 1 992), 43-44. ; Wendy Hamand Venet, Neither Ballots nor Bullets: Women Abolitionists and the Civil War(Charlottesville, VA: University Press of Virginia, 1991 ), 4.

    DLG 22 Ymchwiliad i amrywiaeth ym maes llywodraeth leol Inquiry into diversity in local government Ymateb gan: Electoral Reform Society Response from: Electoral Reform Society Introduction Earlier this year ERS Cymru published ‘New Voices’ a report looking at the barriers to diversity across Welsh politics. The report examined UK Parliament, the Welsh Assembly and Welsh local government in turn, assessing the unique circumstances in each which halt gender equality and greater diversity generally being reached. As part of this work on local government we have assessed the current makeup of Welsh local authorities, following last year’s local elections, surveyed elected representatives in Wales with 224 councillors responding and undertook in depth interviews with key figures in local authorities in Wales, including Debbie Wilcox, Leader of Newport Council and the WLGA, Rodney Berman, Councillor and former Leader of Cardiff Council and Yvonne Jardine of Swansea Council. The full report can be found here: https://www.electoral-reform.org.uk/latest-news-and- research/publications/new-voices-how-welsh-politics-can-begin-to-reflect-wales/ 1. Understanding the importance of diversity among local councillors, including the effect on public engagement, debate and decision making. 1.1. At present just 28% of Wales’ councillors are women. In two local authorities in Wales there are no women at all in the cabinet. Only 30% of candidates in last year’s election were women, with a third of wards having no women standing at all.1 1.2. In our survey, which 224 councillors undertook we asked for a range of information including age, sexual orientation and ethnicity in addition to gender.

That the green wedge protection to the North of Cardiff, stretching from Creigiau to St Mellons will be reviewed as part of the next LDP.
