Development aid is yet another mechanism through which to enslave the political, social and cultural agency of a population, rendering them complicit. It perpetuates dependency and stunts the consciousness of the masses against using civic revolt in protest of imperialist, undemocratic politics. “Our constant search and struggle for development resources is linked directly to the historical inability of our nations to accumulate wealth from the efforts of our peoples during slavery and colonialism,” said Baldwin Spencer, prime minister of Antigua and Barbuda, in July this year. Reparations, he said, must be directed toward repairing the damage inflicted by slavery and racism.
