Why were slaves on the British colony of Trinidad speaking French in their objection to the governor telling them about the new law in 1834? This doesn't make any sense.--Parkwells (talk) 01:25, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They were actually speaking Kweyol. Many of them had come from the French islands.Stewart king (talk) 20:14, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Balance emphasis?

I notice that this article is almost entirely about women and slavery. This is an important topic but perhaps shouldn't so completely dominate the coverage. This is an encyclopedia - articles should try to have a very broad coverage.
