One thing I learned by getting older is not to judge others because I, too, have done things I wish I could undo. I believe Mrs. Manley-Duncan and appreciate her honesty. One thing I know as a Jamaican is that we are secretive, and the truth is something that we hide. No matter how adverse the condition, we choose to suffer in silence; at least, those people from my era did that. Her approach to marriage isn't typical of Jamaican women of the 60s and before. This strong, intellectual woman inspires me to walk into my truth, even if it means walking alone. Thanks for all you did and are doing for my beautiful isle. May Jamaica rise above her struggles.

What a phenomenal woman yet again she left me smiling. So down to earth, raw, authentic with her truth. I came away feeling bless to have heard her story. She was open and had a lot of humour in her delivery. You could not helped but warm to her. She comes across as a woman who lived her life the best way she could and had a fulfilling life. Yes her life was not perfect but she presents as happy with no major regrets. She was able to do a lot in her time but she has not seen much major shift presently, in the life of the people she spent the most of her life looking out for. Regardless she stood up for others and worked to bring about change for women. She was and is a forced to be reckoned with. She is not your typical Jamaican woman who at her age would be trying to hide the not so good things of her life. She spoke her truth and that’s all you can do. She was unapologetically herself witty, without any heirs and graces. Very insightful. Last but not lease she is ageing well like fine wine such beauty.

Am sorry, but Bev is no damn force to be reckoned with. Those messy infidelity is nothing to be gracious about. Especially when you become a public figure. To much is given, much is expected. We need to hold the people who lead to high standards as the decisions they make can make or break. How can we have a prime minister cheating on his wife and his wife in return cheating on him, especially with someone in his own cabinet, and talk about she's a force to be reckoned with? That's madness. Now i know why Jam is struggling so much and have not shown any sign of recovery. Bad leaders from the start..

@@ripqueenelizabeth8617Oh so when someone is a public figure they fall outside the realm of being human. Bev showed that she was human and had substance. She was not one of those typical “fool fool”Jamaican woman who in those days would sit powerless and let their husband walk over them. She did what pleases her and what made her happy. She lived her truth and her best life. Had she not, she would now be looking broken and beaten down. You can see she lived her life well. How many 80 year old women in Jamaica looks well like her. A part of that is the fact that she did not sit and subscribe to the traditional patriarchal nonsense that she would have come up against. Whilst infidelity can be and often is devastating it has been around since the start of human existence so she would not be the first and the last to have had an affair. I bet if she had been a man admitting that he had affairs whilst being married no one would bat an eye lid. However as she is a woman she is seen in a different light. What an adult chooses to do in the confines of their bedroom has nothing to do with the quality of work that they are able to produce. What some people need to understand is that the work title or office that a person holds does not stop them from being human. A job title/position doesn’t make you exempt from the reality of life. So whilst her life was not the ideal that you would have expected she lived her life the way she wanted and not sat back like some poor thing feeling sorry for herself. I say kudos to her for being who she wanted to be and having the guts to do so amidst the noise. As a result look how happy she looks. Does it look like she is bothered about you and others hypocrisy? I hardly think so. He/She who is without sin cast the first stone!

Excellent docu series. Thank you to the Powe siblings for giving us a timely wake up and reminder. The question of the hour really asks me to come home and fight alongside my people. "Where we go 1 we go all".. style. A kind of do or die because it really has come down to this on every land mass globally. Sovereignty and patriotism need to be refueled with good old time values that really did us no wrong. It is why Jamaica has made a name on the world stage. Jamaicans just need to be Jamaicans to spark a fire of joy and happiness wherever they go. That comes from elders/ancestors who taught us resilience in the face of any hardship; survival in the face of war; chill vibes in the face of adversity. Jamaica is going thru the dark night of the soul and I am sure that we will pull through. How? Good question. If we look to the music of Bob, we will see that the natural mystics ( us Jamaicans ) flow and adapt. We also see that destruction is necessary. The great reset is a time of destruction, chaos and rebirth. The snake eating its tail; the Ouroubos; the cycle of birth, death and rebirth. We are in it to win it. Eyes open, no fear, be safe everyone.Much love

I searched for this final segment of the series, was somewhat disappointed when I could not locate it. I'm so happy that it is now released. I remembered clearly Beverly Anderson on JBC radio and when Michael burst on the political scene. I was very young at the time and was really pulled to his ideology. I was annoyed at people who criticized his choice of Beverly Anderson. I liked that she was a darker shade and Jamaica was being taken into a new era of having a dark skinned woman as First Lady of the country. Things were changing!!! The 70s through the 80's were definitely challenging times - so much misunderstanding, and undermining. I wonder where Jamaica would have been today had Michael won the 1980 election. I love Beverly's honesty in sharing her narrative, she was willing to risk all for DK (ie his philosophy) but he was not willing to do the same for her. ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥

May he rest in peace ✌️ when he lost the election that's when his wife should stand by his side as she said "where though go I shall go" I like that she was or maybe still an advocate for women

Thank you for producing this very informative series. And although the history of Jamaica and her people is so dense and complicated, this series explained a whole lot.

She strikes me as being as real as they come and real a woman cannot simply side-step a real man...a "Man's Man." She would have to run, hide and stay hidden. I have a strong feeling that inspite of her many disappointments about the state of things in Jamaica, given the opportunity, there is not much that Beverly Manley would change about her life. 🤔 Big Up & Bless-Up to Beverly!!

I thank you for this informative series. I was never a fan of Beverly Manley , however hearing her in her own words allows me to have a lot more respect for her. I grew up with my family highly politised, with one part being JLP and the other part being PNP. My father was campaign manager for Michael Manley in Central Kingston, and a cousin was later a minister in the JLP. Looking back I see it was mostly vanity, with the slogans, gangs, payoffs, and rhetoric. Had all of these intelligent Jamaicans put Jamaica first over their political asperations and selfishness, Jamaican would have been a much safer and better place. There is still hope for Jamaica but it continues to fade with every passing year.(Of course the rich and privilege in Jamaica will still think everything is fine)

I am not condemning Ms Manley Duncan but I'm very disappointed that she would do that to a man who gave her the opportunity to be first lady or Queen a most Honorable position one could ask for and especially at that time in our history light complexion and prime ministers would not even think to marry a black woman and with all the backlashing he got. People were saying he the PM did that as an example that all people are created equal and that's good but but all kinds of negativity which they make not even been aware of among locals people as well. I was happy for her but what a shock especially when she is gifted with brilliance and the luck of finding someone who handled it so well. Her life could have been snatched away am glad it wasn't. 😢

I so agree with Ms. Bev on this. Was saying that to a friend this morning. How can we be comfortable in a society with so much inequity??? My father (God rest his soul) asked PJ the same question when they were thinking about building that cricket ground out in Westmoreland for Cricket World Cup. Sadly like DK my father felt that his life was wasted bec he couldn’t get to complete the Vision. And yup I will be using the same song fir his Memorial Service bec he was one of those “People like You”. It seems to me that we have regressed so much since the 70s but I’d like to think that our young ppl will pick up the baton to help JA get back on track. I really enjoyed this documentary and thanks to Ms Bev my former tutor and lecturer in Politics for continuing to be so real and courageous.

Wow! The sacrifices we women make. So many women give up their own futures to then find the man they stand behind has betrayed them in one way or another. Beverly engaged in the relationship, gave her heart, then, had to contend with the person she fell in love with not following through with their initial agreement. Wow! True love. Like Camilla, she got her true love in the end. This is a tale of two different but true loves. I understand where Mrs Manley Duncan is coming from. Micheal was older, from the elite class loved listening to classical music but, most of us women, tend to truly love dih ragamuffin, dih one who is jus' like the ones we admired from afar in our neighbourhoods. Dih one wih can share we rockers wid an' laugh dat - "Mih get whah yuh ah seh." laugh. A beautiful true portrayal of a great woman. Nuff respec'!

In 1983 when the the Coup d'etat took place in Grenada, I was in my penultimate year of high school and a very keen student of world affairs. Along with some of my colleagues then we did a comparative analysis of the Jamaican situation in the closing years of the PNP administration in the late 70s into 1980 against the backdrop of the Grenada Coup. I was our considered view that the same thing could have happened in Jamaica, given the fault lines that existed (as confirmed by Ms Manley-Duncan) in the party. Having said that, as progressives we were very much in tune with the vision of the then Government of the People's National Party - the whole ideology of import substitution and self-reliance. Ms Manley-Duncan's closing statements are really apt, and can be posed as a question - where are we now?

The eagerly anticipated Part 4 (and series finale) certainly did not disappoint. I’ve watched and waited till the end of this episode before commenting but first I have to say congratulations on producing such an amazing and gripping documentary … well done!! As a young teen growing up in Kingston I certainly remember when the vibrant Beverley Anderson started her broadcasting career. I was an admirer. I also remember when Michael started to emerge as the leader of the party following the death of his father. It’s difficult to describe the power of his magnetism on the young generation of that era but it was undeniable. When I reached the age to vote and could dip my finger into red ink for the first time, that vote was for Michael Manley and the PNP. I remember how proud and excited I was, going to the polling station and voting for the very first time. Sadly, that pride and excitement didn’t last long. In a short span of time - a year and a half, two years perhaps, the bubble started to deflate. The anger, bitterness, rhetoric that began to emerge from the party and its leadership, and the spillover to and winding up of the citizenry, was frightening and alarming. I recall Michael addressing the nation and, for the first time, angrily and passionately raising his arm and pumping his fist - as he lit the fire as it were - while stirring on the masses about the haves and the have-nots. For me the dye was cast … there would be no turning back. Around 1975/76 Jamaica was no longer the Jamaica I knew. At the time Jamaica hosted the Commonwealth Heads of Government meetings I happened to be working in the centre of the meeting places. Party strongmen (spies in reality) were everywhere; nowhere and no one was safe. I saw with my own eyes atrocities, many falsely accused, searched and dragged off, some even disappearing never to be seen or heard from to this day. Violence and fear were widespread. I left Jamaica shortly thereafter. Getting older myself I don’t get back as regularly anymore but I’m in constant contact. I appreciate Mrs. Manley-Duncan’s honesty and bravery. She is still as vibrant and captivating as ever and I suspect she has many stories left to tell (teach). One thing I’m struck by - in the beginning Beverley describes Michael as her soulmate yet I’m saying to myself, not so … her true soulmate? DK I would suspect. Again, congratulations on a fabulously produced mini-series!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

@@AdtelligentTV Thank you so much for your reply. Absolutely, yes! without a doubt there needs to be a discussion (at the very least) into that period of our history. Half a century on and where do we find ourselves … pretty much stuck right where we were at that time. Along the way we have progressed but I think as a society we have digressed badly, especially in areas of crime and violence, education, healthcare (creating and maintaining a caring social framework for seniors, orphans, indigent), not to mention strengthening and developing our natural resources in order to be less dependent on foreign largess. Unless we’re willing to openly and honestly speak about that period of time, to see it for what it was and how it continues to frame who we are as a nation, we will not be able to move beyond that point to truly grow and develop into the people we are meant to be. Jamaica, I believe, is a unique (and blessed) nation with the potential to influence and lead the globe in many positive ways (we are much more than sun, sea and rum, reggae, weed and Rastafari).

What a gift this documentary is to our recorded history! My mom and her brother were, as young people and all through adulthood members of the PNP party, and lived in a JLP strong hold community. I have always been politically aware and had a sense of the unequal and class system that existed. If I remember correctly Michael won his first election for Prime Minister when I was 12 yrs old. I remember the excitement and feelings of hope and change. Remember when a minimum wage was established. When domestic workers were no longer maids but helpers. My mother a single parent could have never paid for my very smart younger sister to attend UWI. Michael Manley made that possible and now I know the part Bev played in that! I remember how outraged many were when he married her. The things that were said but it made every women of the darker hue felt validated. Not just because he looked “white” but more because of the remnants of the British class system that kept us in “our place”. She made us proud because she was educated, smart, strong, beautiful and embraced her blackness like the queen she is. She made no apologies for being black in the way she cared for all Jamaicans, especially the marginalized. The way she carried herself, the Afro, head wraps and grace. We migrated in the very early 80’s. To be honest I never knew the details of the breaking of their marriage and felt disappointment because Michael was hurt and because I have so much love and respect for both. But, as I listened to her and remembered that we did not hold him accountable for his indiscretions and the pain it must have caused her. Even though she said he loved and treated her well. It must have been damaging and hell to live through. I have to put it all into perspective and let it not diminish the work they both did to make life for the average Jamaican better. The dream they had for a just and equitable society! It was a great time to be a young and progressive child/teenager/young adult. Michael Manley is responsible for my political awareness and awakening. Bev showed me I was valuable and could accomplish anything. A force to be reckoned with. Thank you Ms. Bev for sharing your truth. For all you have done for women and children. For setting the bar high. Nuff nuff blessings!❤️
