Christmas means LOVE for all

Petchary's Blog

Christmas is about joy, being together, having fun, eating and drinking excessively, and probably just being lazy. However, it’s not just about loving one’s family and friends and enjoying a nice meal with them. I always try to remind myself that there are many people who are not so privileged, who are not basking in “good vibes,” and who are wondering what the future (or even the present moment) will bring them. So I found this release from Stand Up for Jamaica (SUFJ) very touching. It is very easy to forget about those incarcerated in our prisons: out of sight, out of mind?

Special “big ups” to Sandals Foundation, Lasco Foundation and the University of the Commonwealth Caribbean (UCC) for supporting the dedicated people at SUFJ in this effort. Nuff love to all!

The Speaker Speaks

Filosofa's Word

Last evening, the January 6th Committee issued to the public its final report after nearly two years of delving into the who, what, where, when, why, and how of the insurrection and attempted coup on January 6th, 2021.  The Executive Summary, which I downloaded on Tuesday, is over 150 pages and I’m still working my way through that, and the full report is said to be 1,000 pages, give or take.  Much of what’s in the report we have seen in the hearings, but no doubt there is additional detail and analysis.  From time to time, I may write about one thing or another that stands out, but I have no intention of boring you to tears by sharing the entire report or opining on every detail.  You can download the report yourself if you are interested … and I really hope you are, at least those of you who…
