  1. History of the British West Indies

    Use dmy dates date November 2010 The term British West Indies refers to the former colonies and present possessions of the United Kingdom in the Caribbean . In the history of the British West Indies there have been several attempts at political unions. These attempts occurred over a period of more than 300 years, from 1627 to 1958, and were carried out, or sometimes imposed, first by the English and then the British government. During this time, some of the attempted unions were true federations of colonies and others involved attaching various colonies to a major, nearby colony for the purposes of cheaper, efficient government or because the attached colonies were too small to justify a separate government. The initial federal attempts never went so far as to try to encompass all of the British West Indies BWI , but were more regional in scope. The historical regional groupings were the British Leeward Islands , British Windward Islands and Jamaica with other nearby English British colonies such as the Cayman Islands, British Honduras and the Turks and Caicos Islands. note the original wording referred to historical regional groupings of nearby colonies which would encompass the Cayman ... would re appear during the life of the Federation of the West Indies .

  1. Emancipation of the British West Indies

    Unreferenced date December 2009 The Emancipation of the British West Indies was proposed as early as 1787, but was not achieved until the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833 effective 1834 . The United Kingdom British were the first to attempt to abolish slavery in the Caribbean during the early 19th century, but complete abolitionism emancipation took a lot of time and effort to achieve. Many people, primarily in England , began to view slavery as cruel and unjust as The Enlightenment swept across the nation. The global economic changes taking place during this time period created a decline in the need for slavery in the Caribbean as the industrial revolution and free trade began to take shape and products could be created more cheaply elsewhere. Religious efforts aided in this oppositional movement by taking a strong stance against slavery during the Methodist movement and New Protestant Evangelism . The Roman Catholic Church also played a crucial role in slave uprisings, mainly because it was the primary religion in the area that would recognize slaves as members of the church. Uprisings such as the Haitian Revolution and the Baptist War reinforced the British attempt to abolish slavery by forcing Europeans to focus their attention on Caribbean affairs. A significant event in the campaign was the preaching by Beilby Porteus , Bishop of London , of the 1783 Anniversary Sermon of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts SPG , an occasion which he used in order to criticise the Anglican Church s role in ignoring the plight of the slaves on its Codrington Estates in Barbados , and to recommend means by which the lot of slaves there could be improved. It was a well reasoned and much reprinted sermon, preached before forty members of the society, including eleven ...
