Three Jamaican women who worked for women and the most vulnerable

Petchary's Blog

International Women’s Day was a bit of a blur for me, as I was so busy. It was warmly embraced by many. Social media was swamped with memes, videos, and photo-ops. My bank gave me a lovely cup cake. WhatsApp was filled with empowering messages. There is certainly plenty about Jamaican women to recognize and applaud.

This reminded me that for some time I have been meaning to write a little tribute to two women who stood for justice for men and women, at home and sometimes abroad too. Now, sadly, I am going to add a third Jamaican woman.

“Florida’s Don’t Say Gay Bill Will Hurt Teens Like Me”

NANMYKEL.COM

Will Larkins is a junior at Winter Park High School in Winter Park, Florida.

“I have come to realize that those who have been so openly hateful toward me often knew little about the queer community — they thought being L.G.B.T.Q. was a conscious choice.

No sé si habrá un después, un mañana, un porvenir. Todo parece incierto. Estamos en tiempos de guerra, odio y violencia. De lo que estoy convencido y seguro es de que los crímenes que atentan contra la humanidad-entiéndanse coronaviris y lo otro- y la guerra que amenaza destruir el planeta, no apagan mi voz ni me atemorizan; al contrario, me fortalecen para dar lo mejor de mí, vivir con equilibrio y respeto, hacer el bien y cultivar amor. No me he rendido ante los intereses de un grupo ambicioso y despiadado. Si anhelo la luz, no importa caminar entre los fantasmas que alguien, y otros más, han creado con la intención de romper y dominar a la humanidad.
