The institution is making reparations after admitting it had made £200m from the transatlantic trade
GLASGOW UNIVERSITY have announced a new programme of 'reparative justice' to make amends from profiting hundreds of millions from the transatlantic slave trade.
In a year-long report commissioned by the university and co-authored by Prof Simon Newman and Dr Stephen Mullen, they found that the institution benefited directly from the slave trade in Africa and the Caribbean in the 18th and 19th centuries to almost £200m in today’s money.
