Jamaican Till I Die!

A series of unfortunate events, Brexit and Trump has played right into the hands of both Russia and ISIS. EU president: Donald Trump's election has placed America's relationship with Europe at risk, EU president Jean Claude Juncker has warned. In a series of blunt and forthright remarks on the shock winner of the US elections, Mr Juncker accused the new President-elect of ignorance and said he must be taught "what Europe is and how it works". Russia supported Brexit because Russia wanted the UK out of the European Union, they were happy like a pig in slop about the outcome of the Brexit vote. The United Kingdom was like a thorn in the side of Russia because the UK would use her position as a top member of the EU to counter and block Russia's moves. On top of all that the UK was the eye, ear and mouthpiece of the USA in the EU, they both would work together to influence the EU activities, countering and blocking Russia. In fact Russia also wants the Europe

The more I travel and the more I communicate with people in different countries both in person and online, and the more I explore global news and current affairs as it happens in countries around the world. Is the more I have grown to appreciate my Jamaica and my Jamaican people even more.  I am not saying we are better than anyone. I am not saying we are superior to anyone and the fact that for the most part we do not think on those levels make me appreciate us more. As a matter of fact most of us Jamaicans know our limitations and enjoy our mediocre simple life. I will go even further to declare simplification of life is a much better way of living than an overly complex life. Simple things make my day and life worth living. Like finding a big East Indian mango, golden in colour, ripened to perfection and sweeter than sugar and it is big enough to be a single meal. I spent one part of my life chasing the dreams of my parents, thinking about corporate ladders, having sle

Jamaica’s Food Security and safety depends on our integrity, morality, self-respect, respect for others, personal responsibility and basic human decency. We are simply at the mercy of each other, especially since our food supply system lacks a standard nationwide process to protect us. Anything can be injected into the food supply at any stage of the process and we would not know. When it comes to food import we have no control, we gave all control to the exporting country and we are totally at their mercy to eat what they want us to eat. BRASÍLIA, Brazil (AFP)  – Salmonella steaks? Carcinogenic chemicals? Lying labels? Brazil, the world's biggest beef and poultry exporter, has been hit by stomach-churning allegations of corrupt practices in its meat industry. Police have halted exports by 21 meat processers suspected of bribing inspectors to issue them bogus health certificates for rotten meat. Brazil's rotten meat scandal: what we know Jamaica's food security a s

An American tried to explain to me that Obama being President of the United States of America proves that the USA is not a racist country. In 2012 Obama won 65,915,795 of the popular vote with 60,933,504 voting against. I believe that racism has gotten worse in America because a black man became president. There is nothing like the feeling that you are losing control, losing your position of power and status in life to push a person to over compensate for that perceived feeling of lost of power and status. Ever since slavery was abolished white people has been suffering from this perceived feeling that they are losing power, control and status. As a result of Barack Obama becoming the first black president of the world’s most powerful country, white Americans and a lot of white people globally doubled, if not tripled their racist efforts to prove that they like He-Man still have the power and status and when confronted, use the fact that they have a black president as the reason
