King visits revolt site
King Charles visited Independence Park in Georgetown, Guyana, to remember the 1823 Demerara Slave Rebellion, in which thousands of enslaved people rose up and hundreds were killed by colonial authorities. Buckingham Palace said the visit offered a chance to reflect on Guyana’s history of slavery and resistance. Protesters called for reparations, but the King will not apologize or offer compensation, in line with the UK government’s position.
