WHITE RACISM in Barbados PART III – Interview with SAM HEADLEY
The denials about white racism at Lodge School orchestrated by Richard Hoad and people like A. White and other whites in the press, where Trevor Marshall and Peter Simmons were subject to “Liar! Liar!’ are hoaxes. There are always whites, who are not like that. “The headmaster reverent Harry B. Gooding was a Christian-minded intellectual, who had been a lecturer at Oxford or Cambridge. He was not a local narrow-minded white. He evaluated the results of the exam and I ended up being nominated to the vestry by the staff at Lodge for a scholarship. A black man was on the vestry but the vestry did not nominate me.” Sam Headley - first black head boy of Lodge School ...

CABLE AND WIRELESS – The Slimey Limies!
To Do With
People
We live in
a post colonial slave-minded society and we must get out. We appear
at least to be literate and if we say we can read, we can. We
can reason and if we cannot reason we can count the money in our pockets
and if we do not have any we want to know why and it is because we are
deprived of our natural right to earn a living. Not many are barefooted
nowadays but the barefooted must look on their feet and walk with dignity
for we ask none for favours we demand our rights. We know what
our rights are and they know what our rights are.
