Pennant money reshaped not only Jamaica, but also modern Britain. In Wales, it financed the vast Penrhyn slate quarry, built villages, and paid for the castle that April-Louise visits alongside her father, Gil. Together, they face the portraits of men who enslaved their ancestors, and ask what it would take for Britain to stop looking away.
