Episode Description from the Publisher

Did you know that in England, 1% of the population owns more than 50% of the land?In this episode, UK-based writer, grower and organiser Sam Sivapragasam describes a world with land reparations. Sam explores the colonial legacies of land ownership and its impact on the health of global communities. Contrasting their experiences of growing up in both Jamaica and the UK, Sam explores how land reparations would serve as a climate justice solution that demands the remaking of the world. For Sam, land reparations offer an opportunity to repair the harm to communities descended from colonised people and to radically shift the way that power is distributed globally. For more information, please visit: www.futuresindraft.com.CreditsA World With is produced by Futures In Draft and Storythings.Executive Producer: Chris MitchellCo-Executive Producers: Emily Bromfield and Anjali RamachandranCreative Producers: Maya Minhas and Isabella PearceCo-Creative Producer: Sara BafoArtwork and Branding: Darren Garrett, Driss Chaoui and Naomi GenneryScriptwriters: Andrew Sage, Sam Sivapragasam (LION), Samara Almonte, Sara Bafo, Mohammed Elnaiem (The Decolonial Centre) and Thanu YakupitiyageVoiceover Artist for series trailers: Sara Mitchell Hosted on Acast.
