INSISTING that the fight for reparations is a great cause that “cannot be won by doubtful men and women”, former St Vincent and the Grenadines Prime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves says he has no intention of retreating quietly from public life as he prepares to take on a more active role in the Caribbean’s push for reparatory justice.
Now approaching his 80th birthday, Gonsalves also signalled that he does not intend to encourage his Unity Labour Party (ULP) to select him for another general election, even as he vowed to remain active in the public space through writing, advocacy and regional political engagement.
Addressing a Jamaica Observer Press Club last Wednesday, Gonsalves described reparation as a defining cause for the Caribbean, while reflecting on how his decades in public life have prepared him for a different kind of leadership role.
