The promise of freedom seemed tantalizing, but the cost of achieving it was a staggering multi-billion pound bailout for the slave owners, leaving the enslaved to bear the burden of their captivity. Amidst the clash of morality and cunning, two remarkable women emerged as fierce advocates for change. They navigated their way through the treacherous political landscape, challenging members of parliament who dared to deny them their rightful voice. In this thought-provoking and provocative new play by Juliet Gilkes Romero, the personal and the political collide, asking profound questions about what is the right thing to do and how much it is willing to cost. The stage is set for a gripping exploration of power, morality, and the human cost of pursuing justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 136g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 191 x 197 x 16 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781350275478                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Juliet GilkesRomero","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44100165337338,"sku":"9781350275478","price":10.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/whip","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
