From the outset the process for renaming Dundas Street was flawed and so too is the final outcome.

Sankofa Square? Toronto Square? To thousands of us, it'll always be Dundas Square!

All blacks in the service of the King were free, putting the Army at the forefront of abolition. This meant that the 10,000 men of the West India Regiments were undeniably free, 27 years before the slave population of the West Indies as a whole was freed.

Ironically it was Henry Dundas who played a major role in eliminating slavery in Scotland.

In Toronto they’re erasing his name from streets and squares. They’re renaming them to honour the Aken tribe of Ghana who coincidentally were major slave traders.

We are rewriting history as we speak. I will remember the truth.

@overlandertheb1 Henry Dundas was responsible for introducing the 1784 Bill to restore Jacobite estates forfeited after the 1745 rebellion. Also the repeal of The Act of Proscription on 1 July 1782, a date that was celebrated in the Highlands as a return to cultural freedom.

Dundas was an ardent abolitionist.

Reform UK has announced a policy to stop issuing visas to citizens of countries that demand reparations from the United Kingdom for its historical role in the transatlantic slave trade.

Toronto and Edinburgh Council have been misled.

Plaza Sankofa, el parque Berrio de Toronto, nombre de Gana, como reivindicación a la lucha antiracista. Antes se llamaba Dundas Square, Henry Dundas retrazó los logros de la abolición del comercio de esclavos en Norte América.
