Isn’t Jamaica a majority black island? But where are the wealthy black families?

[@saranwright7113]

There are all kinds of different people in Jamaica

[@lenox4166]

Racism...there are none

[@uncommonsense996]

@@saranwright7113 You’re literally not answering the question, don’t worry I’ll do it.

[@uncommonsense996]

Yes it is a majority Black island. I think you know the answer to the second question already, COLONIZATION. This is another example of disgusting oppressors grinding Black people to dust.

[@saranwright7113]

@@uncommonsense996 yes Jamaica is majority black. And I’m sure there are wealthy black people but just not shown here.

[@ianjustin4389]

Haha and you all thought Jamaica was a black country! Black populated but not black owned! Much like the ol'days....

[@Claribelle401]

Jamaica is a black country; however, like any society, there is a ruling class with money and influence. For example, look at your family. Some have, and some don't. It's reality. In a government, the wealthy and elite are not good at sharing. We vote for politicians in this group thinking they will distribute resources and adopt policies to help everyone, but that's not reality.

[@uncommonsense996]

@@Claribelle401 A majority Black island but colonizers control all the wealth. You said this was with any society, I beg to differ. Funny thing is; the reverse doesn’t exist. There’s no place where the majority is non-black, but all the wealth is controlled by a few Black families.

[@davidfrederick4530]

​@delvafreeman9859 The reality is black Jamaicans makes up the majority on the island and yet you don't even control your economy.The one who control the economy of a country,controls everything in it including its politics and people Can you see this is a form of neo colonialism?

[@anneerust4622]

​​@@alexskatit4188They not as dumb as we are, they understand Nation Building, Group Economics and don't allow foreigners 'to run' their country economically for their own generational wealth. If there are 3/4 generations of Chinese in Jamaica, their origins are still CHINA. The rich white folks in this clip are European. Based on their origins, some of their forefathers owned plantations. They keep the wealth in their family ensuring that the European face will always be forefront in Jamaican economy!

[@lilmizzije]

Bruh no black families, yet Jamaica is majority black. ‘One of many people’ my backside. This is a disgrace.

[@zsavior4535]

It is actually a disgrace you not lying.

[@ashdontre14]

It’s a real disgrace!

[@aem870]

When Black men get money, they are more likely to marry out though. That is a fact which prevents generational Black wealth.

1 black female doctor..didn't you see?

Be thankful for the good herbs and music , aka The big come up .

[@exquisitecaribbeanqueen7198]

And we say there's no racism. Jamaicans are delusional, none of these Companies have any generational legacy or anything in thier will and trust other than their family interests......take a look thats why we need to rise up and realize, we must not sell our lands and learn businesses and develop them. This was as a result of " Colonization " no hate, but its time black Jamaicans rise up equally.

[@MarjorieWong-ym3ft]

A painful result if colonialism.That woman’s family was gruesome slave owners,and they are aloof and racist.Stop believing the philanthropist label.These people dont possess any outstanding entrepreneurial visions.This is the same in racist Brazil

[@shanicebrown1585]

There is no racism Jamaica . The black family and black people are their own down fall . Black people always play the blame game and take no responsibility.

Indeed

these are the 21 Families who owned Jamaica elite. Who’s benefited from colonialism, slavery, and merchant middle classes. These are similar to especially in south Africa and black America. There’s even old money blacks but their own and control the wealth, position and resources of it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5anoJKhmaxkrbc

[@UpParkCamp]

How about Dr. Blossom O'Meally-Nelson's Family? Are you defining "Black" as 100% negro? A few mentioned on the list, noticeably had Black heritage.

[@JordanEbanksLive]

@@UpParkCamp still bad that she is the only one tho

[@RationalRealmYT]

I thought there were 21 powerful families in JA This list is missing a few important names

They have money, but not this lists type of money

[@suzettescott7484]

This list is full of inaccuracies. It has popular Jamaicans, but not the richest Jamaicans. Wayne Chen has nothing to do with Super Clubs, that’s the Issa’s. Even the photo of Wayne looks wrong. Please do proper research before posting.

[@lionslove779]

Jamaicans have never left the plantation. The plantation owners got wise and decided to change the format.

[@colourcubeforme]

This is a one out of ten.

[@Dsbg247]

Like all other countries ruined by colonizers, Jamaica still is suffering the consequences of Colonization. This is proof. 🙄🤬😤

wtf is danny wegman doing with Paula Kerr-Jarrett???

[@tavincampbell6545]

Blackwell discovered Bob!!! was he lost???

[@aem870]

Hmmmmm

[@alanmarkfoster1862]

I do not think Wayne Chen is owner of Super Clubs But he is a younger brother of billionaire Michael Lee Chin I would think Michael Lee Chin, the Butch Stewart family and the Matalons and Issas are the wealthiest though I think Mr Lee Chin is a Canadian citizen of Jamaican heritage

[@4evahodlingdoge226]

The thing with the Stewarts, Matalons and Issas is that the main head of who started the companies they built is dead and now their offspring runs the companies hence individually their wealth is diluted, as a family they're the richest but individually Wayne Chen, Michael Lee Chin and others are probably more rich.

[@alanmarkfoster1862]

@@4evahodlingdoge226 I think Wayne Chen was owner of a chain of grocery stores but are they still operational?

I dont remember seeing matalon on the forbes list,he is wealthy but not on that level

Matalon was 2. Makes no sense though because they have more than Chin.

What about the Tony Hart

[@GRAZIOSI32]

He was a great business man

Yes you are right, Tony Hart family should be on list also.

The stoll you used if Wayne chen is NOT actually Wayne Chen. It's a photo of an Asian man and family. But that's defo NOT Mr. Chen

[@jacinthdonaldson2230]

Not comprehensive enough...more homework is needed. Glaring omissions!!

[@normagabriel4894]

What you need to ask...is why they are making this known, it certainly isnt to empower the black people of Jamacia thats for sure...more likely to leave you feeling wrothless. Sad😢😢
