Louise Simone Bennett-Coverley or Miss Lou,, was a Jamaican poet, folklorist, writer, and educator.
Writing and performing her poems in Jamaican Patois. Born on September 7, 1919, Miss Lou is seen by many as the “mother of Jamaican culture” due to the efforts she made in popularizing the Jamaican Patois and having it recognized as a national language in its own right.
Miss Lou challenged that and even influenced other Caribbean authors and poets such as Linton Kwesi Johnson, Mutabaruka and Paul Keens-Douglas to avoid writing in the language of their colonizers.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISS LOU 💓 heaven must be celebrating today (Sept 7th, 2022). The Ring Ding show was never missed as a child growing up in Jamaica. The Annansi stories were my favorite. Then I moved to Canada, and many years later I had the esteemed privilege of meeting her when she lived in Toronto; I started out in Theatre as a young adult, and she watched me performed on stage at the JCA centre, Toronto. I was in awe then, and still is. Her presence was magnetic, and her positive energy profoundly inspiring. Truly a cultural icon indeed!

Afro-Americans have never really tried to get to know and allign themselves with their diaspora. Hence their African traditions are lost

[@TRUTHTEACHER2007]

Garbage! You have your beautiful traditions too. You just need to find the people out there who have preserved them. You're not going to find them on T.V. like that, but trust me, they are there, they are all over the country. Seek and ye shall find. Trust me on that! The problem is people in the cities turn their backs on folk culture. This is a problem all over the World. Even Jamaica has this problem. If you want to see the real culture you have to go to the rural areas.

I fondly remember, as a youth, seeing Ms Lou standing just outside walls of the Ward Theatre being completely surrounded by a crowd of people; we were all captivated by her stories, full of laughter and joy. I believe if anyone is deserving of the status of national heroine, it is Ms Lou. She has nearly single-handedly giving a nation a sense of pride in itself, by removing the shame that was placed upon our cultural identity by the colonial masters, that continue to reverberate to this day. The initiative by the government to establish a republic at its fruition, should culminate with the declaration of National Heroine status for our beloved Ms Lou.
