[@fairmontfriends3176]

Adele was simply soaking up the good feelings generated by the positive side of our culture, and showing her appreciation of it in the clothing she wore. The "dawg in the manger" types who selfishly clutch their jamaicanness to their breast, afraid it might rub off on anyone else, do not understand what it truly means to be Jamaican. They do not understand that we Jamaicans are so powerfully confident in who we are, that we lovingly embrace anyone who shows love for anything Jamaican, and are not threatened by that love. That is what visitors to our island have always felt/sensed. That is why they keep coming back and are drawn to Jamaican people and things Jamaican around the world...wherever they find them. They sense our powerful sense of self and innate ability to love others not like our self without capitulation and surrendering who we are. Every time I go back home and observe the latest generation of young people, who treat you like you are a guest they invited in their home, and without the servile attitudes that mark so many other tourist destinations. I am proud. I remember a Jamaican gentleman named John McInnis, who brought dignity to the job he did, and was not looking for the job to bring him dignity. He had the natural demeanour of a kindly king who wanted to make sure his subjects were well taken care of and happy. No vanity, no ego, no false humility. Just a simple pride in doing what he did and taking it to a new level of excellence. Real Jamaicans "Bring dignity to what they do, and are not looking for what they do to bring them dignity". I coined that phrase when I met Mr McInnis, and I have mentally used it in my evaluation of a prospect when hiring anyone to do any job of any kind for me. Those are the best and most rewarding people to deal with. Jamaicans have that dignity and regal mentality naturally. That is why we generally do so well no matter where in the world we find our self transplanted. Without vanity, I proudly say we are truly unique, and everything we breed and create is unusual and special. Nuff said.

My twins look more black, Indian and Chinese. They get so much flack and questions at school, as to where they are from. Their hair flows down their back. They have had students try to touch their hair. Teachers not understanding their level of cultural diversity. I experienced that too, but to be honest our grandparents never identified with where their heritage was from. The struggle of migrating to other countries was overwhelming. They were not defined by their appearance. As said out of one many ppl❤

I like that he speaks his mind. I sort of agree about the cancel culture comments. If you ignore history and pretend it never happened the way it did, you are doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past. Tearing down a statue of someone who did bad things is ensuring that we forget the historically bad mistakes of that generation, and some unknowing or calculating idiot in some future generation is going to have the historical room to re-create them to our detriment. Rather, I suggest we at least collect the statues in a "Garden of History" and tell the stories...good and bad about each character so future generations may move forward equipped with the knowledge to help them avoid repeating the mistakes of the past. There is a jamaican saying I live by. "MI naw wuk fi nuh big finnaral!" Which means (loosely translated) "I will speak my mind weather you like it or not, and if you do not like what I say, you do not have to come to my funeral, because I am not campaigning to have a big funeral when I die" He seems to be the same type. People are quick to label you because you have an opinion dissimilar to theirs. Get your head out of your a-s and understand that people have a God given right to have their own opinion and to be authentically themselves. Societal values change on a dime like the latest fashionable colours to wear. People who remain unapologetically themselves are gold. Keep it up White Yardie. Most of us Jamaicans love your unapologetic, authentic, truly Jamaican outspokenness. "Jamaicanness" 😄

I'm born and raised in Jamaica. Speaking like him was not allowed at home. Proper English only. Now, living here in the US some people still won't believe that I'm from Jamaican.

Also, when someone appreciates your culture, and dons some symbol of it to show that appreciation, you do not bawl that they are trying to "steal" your culture. We Jamaicans are not insecure. We know we are unique and are confident in that uniqueness. That is why we impact other cultures every where we go. Note the evolution of rap from Scottie and others before him (Formerly called a DJay) to today's American rappers offerings riddled with Jamaican sounds, moves and exclamations. No one can "steal" our culture. It runs too deep in every one of us. It is in the soil and the water that nurtured us. It is embedded in our genes. A European/American relative of my husband observing the consistently outstanding performance of Jamaican athletes like Usain Bolt and other Jamaican athletes before and after him in Olympic track events, he soberly observed " Maybe we should send American track athletes there to train to learn the techniques and regimen. I cracked up! My straight faced response was? "Yes you can do that. They can eat the food, drink the water, breathe the air, learn the techniques. But what are you going to do about the genetics?" He conceded that he had no answer to that.
