THE QUEEN from Page 40

Frustration with the Queen and colonialism also grew palpable.

“I think most Antiguans would want to replace the Queen now,” historian Ivor Ford told BBC News during the celebration.

“Young people can’t relate to the Royal Family; they don’t understand their purpose. Even older people like me would love to see us become a republic. The head of state should be someone who is elected like in America,” Ford concluded.

Antiguan businesswoman Makeda Mikael recalled how as a child, she atthat focus on threats to democratic institutions in the United States.

Topics can include, but are not limited to, voting suppression; misinformation and disinformation; intimidation of election officials; politicization of election systems; political violence; dark money; and extremism/militias.

“We value data, investigative, and accountability journalism projects that tackle systemic issues and hold to account powerful local figures,” officials wrote in a release.

They said all journalists, including freelancers and independents, are welcome to apply for grants.

“You decide what underreported stories your community needs to engage with, and we support that reporting and champion it, including creating educational materials and organizing events to expand the reach of your stories and the conversation about them,” officials wrote.

“As a scholar, I feel challenged in bringing the normal paradigms and theoretical frameworks we rely on in political science to understanding the conditions that we face right now in the U.S because so many of the assumptions that typically ground our thinking have been upended,” Political Scientist Claudine Gay told the Harvard Gazette earlier this year.

Gay, the Edgerley Family Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and Wilbur A. Cowett Professor of Government and African and African American Studies, said it all crystallized for her as she witnessed the aftermath of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

“Here was a moment when thousands of people turned against American democracy itself, choosing violence as the way to achieve their aims,” Gay said. “I thought a threat that profound would shock and unify us. But it, instead, has generated as polarized a response as any other issue or event.

“That reality has disrupted my

tended ceremonies that celebrated the Queen against her will.

“We didn’t know as much about our history then as we do now,” Mikael related.

“In school, I wasn’t taught African or Caribbean history. So I knew everything about British and European history and nothing about ours.”

She told the BBC she and others would continue to demand reparations.

“England has enjoyed the benefit of our slave labor right up to today, and they need to be honest, admit it, and find a way to reconcile,” Mikael insisted. thinking and it forces us all in the discipline to consider anew the basic norms, values and institutions that we’ve taken for granted as stable (and stabilizing) features of American political life,” she said.

Earlier this month, ABC News reported that sporadic and groundless claims of widespread election fraud had been made since the country’s founding but in modern times they have never been made more consistently.

The news outlet noted that polling suggests a full third of the electorate thinks President Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory was illegitimate. Much of it is tied to Trump, experts say, after he made the fraud claims a litmus test for GOP candidates and the heart of his platform.

“And while there have been decades-long disputes over how relaxed or restrictive voting should be – flaring during the civil rights movement, for example – experts say the lack of faith in today’s elections and state legislatures’ efforts to clamp down on access to the ballot is unique,” the outlet concluded.

It’s among the reasons The Pulitzer Center aggressively seeks journalists and newsrooms to uncover and report on threats to American democracy.

To apply, officials ask candidates to describe a proposed project in no more than 250 words, a preliminary budget estimate that includes a basic breakdown of costs and a compelling distribution plan.

Applicants typically will receive a response within two weeks.

“We aim to support teams that reflect the communities they report on. We hope this grant can help our partner organizations advance their diversity, equity and inclusion goals and commitments,” Pulitzer Center officials wrote.

“Most people couldn’t care less if [Elizabeth] is head of state or not. The Queen is not a significant part of anybody’s agenda.”

With a reported net worth of nearly $12 billion, Elizabeth has never publicly spoken about reparations.

“Along with a number of colonies in North America, the Caribbean formed the heart of England’s first overseas empire,” explained David Lambert, professor of Caribbean History at the University of Warwick.
