Sam Sharpe, truth-telling and repair

Updated 8 October 2026

Sam Sharpe was born into enslavement in Jamaica around 1801. Grounded in Christian faith and a profound belief in equality before God, he challenged the inhumanity of enslavement and became a leader of liberation, resilience and collective action. This Black History Month, I want to reflect on Sharpe's life and witness: his faith, his leadership and his enduring legacy for all who seek truth, justice and repair.
