Michelle Obama delivered a searing denunciation of Donald Trump on Saturday in Michigan and challenged voters to support Kamala Harris as the United States’ first female president.
“By every measure, she has demonstrated that she’s ready,” the former first lady said. “The real question is, as a country, are we ready for this moment?”
It was Obama’s first appearance on the campaign trail since she spoke at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago over the summer, and her remarks were forceful and passionate, even vulnerable.
She said she fears for the country and struggles to understand why the presidential race remains close.
“I lay awake at night wondering, ‘What in the world is going on?’” she said.
Her voice vibrating with emotion, Obama warned that Trump’s potential return to the White House would undermine women’s health and reproductive freedom.
“I am asking y’all from the core of my being to take our lives seriously,” she said.
The rally in Kalamazoo followed Harris’ visit to a doctor’s office in Portage to talk with healthcare providers and medical students about the impact of abortion restrictions. One of them said they have patients visiting from other parts of the country where there are strict limitations on abortion, and another said she’s worried that people won’t want to practice in important areas of medicine because of fears about government intrusion…

Under the theme “One Love, One People, One Heritage,” Jamaicans celebrated their Heritage Week from October 14 to 21. It’s an annual observance that precedes National Heroes Day, where numerous celebratory events — culminating with the National Honours and Awards Ceremony — centre around the lives and legacy of the island’s seven National Heroes.
Speaking from Morant Bay in eastern Jamaica, where National Hero Paul Bogle led a rebellion in 1865, Prime Minister Andrew Holness’ message stressed the need to build on the legacy of Jamaica’s forebears. Soon afterwards, he took to social media to make the announcement that Jamaican poet and cultural activist Louise Bennett-Coverley, and revered reggae musician Bob Marley would be the first recipients of a new national honour:
The “Order of National Icon,” Holness noted, was a “most well-deserved and long overdue recognition of Marley and Bennett Coverley’s legendary contributions” to Jamaica’s cultural heritage. He described them as “towering figures” with an “immeasurable” global impact.
In an interview at the premiere of the Marley biopic “One Love” in January, the prime minister had noted the long-running public discussion about making Marley a national hero, hinting: “The conversation has so far evolved to have a category that identifies iconic personalities — people who have added great value to our country — so there may be a designation.”
Opposition leader Mark Golding held a different view. In his National Heroes Day message, Golding advocated for Marley to be named a national hero:
I continue to call for Robert Nesta Marley, who more than any other has made our music an inspirational force of liberation, justice and equality for all the peoples of the world, to be recognised as the National Hero he is. His greatness is embraced in all corners of the earth. He gave us the enduring power of One Love, which is drawn on by the theme of National Heroes Day 2024. Time come for his status as a Hero to be formalised here at home.
The concept of another national honour was first raised in 2007 when then Prime Minister Bruce Golding (who had himself refused the Order of the Nation award automatically awarded to prime ministers) appointed a committee to review the system of national honours and awards. The committee, chaired by the late cultural powerhouse Professor Rex Nettleford,recommended a new honour, the “Order of Jamaican Heritage,” suggesting Marley and Bennett-Coverley as examples of “individuals who made significant contributions to Jamaica’s heritage over an extended period of time.”
A subsequent sessional committee of Parliament, appointed by a new political administration in 2008, “strongly recommended that, as far as possible, individuals must be awarded or honoured during their lifetime once they meet the relevant criteria.” Despite these deliberations, no action was taken until Culture Minister Olivia Grange noted, in 2019, that she would be reviewing the Rex Nettleford Committee report.
In 2021, Opposition senator Floyd Morris presented a motion for four new national heroes to be announced for the island’s 60th anniversary the following year — Bob Marley, Louise Bennett-Coverley, Usain Bolt, and Jimmy Cliff. This took place just a few weeks after singing sensation Rihanna had been made a national hero in Barbados on the occasion of the island becoming a republic.
Now that the “National Icon” process is in train, however, many academic and cultural commentators are not sold on the idea. Influential Garvey scholar and professor emeritus at the University of the West Indies (UWI), Rupert Lewis, asserted that both Marley and Bennett-Coverley should be National Heroes since the basis of Jamaican cultural identity “has been the contribution from the grassroots like Bob Marley through the establishment [of] a global presence.” He went on to suggest that if the prime minister was “seeking a compromise … this is not a compromise that is acceptable.”
Meanwhile, popular storyteller Amina Blackwood Meeks observed that both Marley and Bennett-Coverley are already icons and wondered what contemporary Jamaicans understood by the term “national hero,” a question that came up during several media conversations…
