International Day of Slavery Remembrance 2011

Tues 23rd Aug 2011 was International Day of Slavery Remembrance, but you wouldn't have known it - not from the BBC anyway.

BBC Points West seemed to be the only BBC news broadcaster that made mention of it. And even then the mention was more a promotion of the new museum exhibition in Bristol than a focus on the day as such.

I didn't hear it mentioned on any of the BBC Radio 4 news programmes, not even on the Today Programme (6am to 9am).

Was it mentioned? Did I just miss it?
