A LOCAL CLERIC has issued a warning that Barbados is not immune to the kind of deadly violence inflicted on a predominantly black church in the United States last week.
Reverend Anthony Parris of the local African Methodist Episcopal Church (AME) whose sister church in Charleston, South Carolina, was the scene of mass murder last Wednesday night, put Barbados on notice yesterday.
“There is racism in Barbados. Maybe it is subsided because we have a majority black population and a black Government. But do not feel that because it happened in South Carolina that it couldn’t happen here because this thing could spark others around the world now. This could lead to what they call lone wolves who could start things in other countries,” he told the SUNDAY SUN.
