This film builds on recent work by historians about the role of Scots in Caribbean slavery. It focuses on the Gordon family of Cairness near Fraserburgh in Aberdeenshire in the late eighteenth
and early 19th centuries and describes the links between Cairness House, one of Scotland’s greatest neo-classical country houses and the Georgia sugar plantation on the island of Jamaica. Cairness House and many other country houses in Scotland reminds us of a dark period in our history and of our common, shared heritage with people of West Africa and the Caribbean.
