The Kalinago Genocide or How Britain took the Caribbean

In this episode, we are travelling to the islands of the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean. This week we are going to see the British shift seamlessly from piracy to capitalist settler colonialism, all on the edges of the Spanish Empire. Much like the Spanish before them, the British will do this at the expense of a long-established Indigenous civilization, engaging in premeditated genocide for the sake of their fledgling tobacco plantations. In this episode, we bring together multiple sources to illuminate the life and death of the Kalinago whose people and history were intentionally annihilated by Britain's first colonists. As well as laying out the series of ill-planned, failed, British colonies, before, unfortunately, outlining how their first successful colony was spawned from a literal river of blood.
