Barbudans are being denied access to their public beaches, intimidated & cut out of planning processes while developers like Robert De Niro exploit their lands for 'private, luxury escapes' & run puff pieces in Travel Weekly & Travel + Leisure. crowdjustice.com/case/save-barb…

#Barbuda win! Privy Council Rules In Favour of Mussington antiguanewsroom.com/privy-council-… via @Antigua News Room

#Barbudans can celebrate today as the Privy Council has ruled and agreed that We do have a say on what goes on in our country! #Barbudastrong!

So pleased for our brave clients that the Privy Council has allowed their appeal. They have been fighting long and hard for the right to challenge the construction of an airport on Barbuda and to protect the island’s fragile ecosystem from the impact of the development.

#Barbudians can exhale for a minute.

On Clash! Voices for Caribbean Federation from Below, I shared a cache of declassified documents related to the Barbuda Secession Movement in the 1960s. I trace the subordination of Barbuda by Antiguan political elites to this moment in which Barbudans exposed the fraud of “independence.” medium.com/clash-voices-f…

The contradictions of the entire Caribbean political class will be on display in Antigua from May 27-30. CARICOM leaders plead “vulnerability” to appeal for “green” capital while dispossessing working people in their own territories like Barbuda. medium.com/clash-voices-f…

The Antiguan Government’s adjudication of Barbudan land is naked cronyism, an attack on the rights of ordinary Barbudans for the benefit of billionaires and career politicians. It must be fought and stopped and we wish all the best to our colleagues in Barbuda as they go forward.

#Barbudians have been increasingly targeted by the current government of #Antigua, using its judicial system. The crime rate in Antigua has risen but is not addressed, yet it has found efficiency in the use of its power to threaten the people of #Barbuda. We are not intimidated!

Barbudan John Mussington spoke powerfully The ABAS for Stronger Caribbean Together: Our conditions are not inevitable...communities across the region continue to be assailed by the impact of disaster capitalism...it's happening right under our noses here in #Barbuda tinyurl.com/SIDS4

This is the greenwashing agenda in Barbuda. Billionaire developers constructing golf courses on protected wetlands are credited with environmental restoration—the land defenders from Barbuda are called poachers and mercenaries. Say the names of the real poachers and mercenaries!
