supposed to listen to the views of people from towns and communities across the Vale to decide a way forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In November 2020, First Minister Mark Drakeford ordered an urgent audit of statues, street and building names to address Wales\u2019 connections with slavery and the slave trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The audit identified 209 monuments, buildings or street names, located in all parts of Wales, which commemorate people who were directly involved with the slavery and the slave trade or opposed its abolition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The audit, led by Gaynor Legall, found that \u201ccommemorations of people connected with the slave trade are often shown without any accompanying interpretation to address matters of contention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWithout this, the figures are presented solely as role models rather than representatives of challenging aspects of the past.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research also found there are \u201calarmingly few Welsh people of Black or

country.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" loading=\"lazy\"

Likely named after naval figure Samuel Hood.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2021, First Minister Mark Drakeford said: \u201cWhile the tragic killing of George Floyd happened almost 4000 miles away, it sparked global action that shone a light on racial inequality in society today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat inequality exists in Welsh society too and we must work towards a Wales which is more equal. To help us do this, we need a clear understanding of the legacies of the slave trade and the British Empire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is not about rewriting our past or naming and shaming. It is about learning from the events of the past. It is an opportunity for us to establish a mature relationship with our history and find a heritage which can be shared by us all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The audit identified a number of street names in the Vale with possible connections to slavery including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Gladstone Road, Barry<\/li><li>Gladstone Gardens, Barry<\/li><li>Hood Road, Barry<\/li><li>Nelson Road, Barry<\/li><li>Clive Road, St Athan<\/li><li>Picton Court, Llantwit Major<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why do some people think street names should be changed?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A number of historic figures who have had streets and other areas named after them in Barry and the Vale of Glamorgan have been criticised by groups like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.toppletheracists.org\/\">Topple the Racists<\/a> for supporting the slave trade or failing to support the abolition movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Black Lives Matter <a href=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/2021\/03\/19\/protest-march-due-to-take-place-in-cardiff-on-saturday-afternoon\/\">protests<\/a> in the wake of the killing of George Floyd and the toppling of the Edward Colston statue in Bristol persuaded many local authorities, including the Vale of Glamorgan Council, to pledge to review the slavery links of their monuments, buildings and street names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One such controversial figure is former Liberal prime minister William Ewart Gladstone who gives his name to streets, a park and a bridge in Barry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gladstone\u2019s family held slaves on plantations in the Caribbean and he used his maiden speech in the House of Commons to support his father\u2019s interests and argue against the abolition of slavery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Gladstone\u2019s efforts failed, his family received significant compensation for the freeing of their slaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In June 2020 the University of Liverpool agreed to rename a building named after Gladstone following a campaign by students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other figures with streets named after them in Barry and the Vale include prominent naval officers such as Horatio Nelson and Samuel Hood who took part in colonial wars and failed to support the abolition movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#8216;Extensive Costs&#8217;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A 2021 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lbc.co.uk\/news\/renaming-streets-in-wake-of-blm-could-cost-hundreds-of-thousands-lbc-reveals\/\">investigation<\/a> by LBC found that renaming streets in residential areas can incur large costs to local authorities and suggested that several councils who initially announced plans to review street names in the wake of BLM protests last summer appear to have quietly shelved or delayed the plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cost can be especially high when street names are changed in residential areas because compensation may need to be paid to residents who have to change their address details for bank statements or bills for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cardiffian contact the Vale council for comment several times but it did not respond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Have your say: Do you think that the Vale of Glamorgan Council should rename some of its streets?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed
