Every year on the 25th March, I think we should have a 2 minute silence
to remember all those generations lost in the slave trade (25th March being the Slave Trade Act 1807)
Seeing as WWI and WWII were acts of Empires, so was the slave trade
I think it's only right to remember the wrongs if rememberance and respect is the key importance of today
Of course, I'll respect anyone that choses not to mark the 25th March each year without a 2 minute silence
