"England Enslaved by Her Own Slave Colonies" is a powerful address delivered to the electors and people by James Stephen. This work examines the complex relationship between England and its slave colonies, particularly in the West Indies. Stephen argues that the economic and political systems supporting slavery have effectively enslaved England itself, creating a dependence that undermines the nation's principles and prosperity. Drawing on specific examples from Jamaica, Barbadoes, and Demerara, the author critiques the influence of West Indian interests on Majesty's Government and the House of Commons. He discusses the impact of figures such as Ralph Woodford and Earl Bathurst, and references historical events like the Peace of Amiens and the situation in Port-au-Prince. Stephen's analysis provides a compelling look at the moral and economic costs of colonialism and the slave trade, urging reform and a reevaluation of England's imperial policies. This address remains a vital historical document for understanding the legacy of slavery and its far-reaching consequences.
