I was amazed to read an excerpt of The Manley Memoirs by Beverly Manley in the Jamaican papers. I never realize that as a young woman she had the kind of family problems that she had. I was one of these children that grew up on a farm in the rural part of Jamaica. Due to what Michael Manley did for the farmers in the rural area and the introduction of Jamal classes for adults. Manley became my hero and Beverly Manley became a role model for me. I am pleased that she has finally written the long awited memoirs. I also was brought up in a similiar way where I was not accepted by family and was insulted most of the time. I was also told I would amount to nothing and no matter how hard I tried to please my elders the more insults I would
recieve. Like Mrs.Manley I was the more negroid one in my family, this did not fit in with Jamaica's elite system at that time. 'If yu black step back if yu brown stick around, if yu white it's alright'. I am happy to know that she over came such negativity to become who she is today. I also use that experience as a way to move forward with my life. I am proud of you Mrs Manley you will always be one of my heroes who inspire me. Peace and many blessings. Sister Nandi

This is a great read and I recommend all Patriots and wanna-be Jamaicans to read about "Joshua" and his push to make Jamaican's self-reliant by raising the standard of living for the 'forgotten' classes. Although his aspirations were misrepresented as communist, it is interesting to note that the ruling Labor Party is now trying to implement those same policies from over 30 years ago. UKshasha

I haven't had the pleasure of reading the book entitles "The Manley Memoirs", but I have read many works of Michael Manley and those referencing to his aspirations of Democratic Socialism and uplifting the poor masses. In lieu of this, I must say that Manley is one of my greatest heros because of what he had aspired and envisaged as a man coming from the developing world. He did not falter or care about the attempts to tarnish his reputation as a true believer in empowering the masses and the developing world so that those nation-states of the global south can break the dependency factor .

Seaga's work or lack there of will never amount to what Manley tried to do and did for Jamaica. God Bless Jamaica , God Bless the Queen.

Іn the home of leрer Simon, where Јesus' disciples were staying on in the city of Bethany, the lady known as Mary got an alabaster phial filled with pricy fragrance and set about to lavish it upon Christ as He reposed at the table. It can be gleaned from the chemical compositions above that organically-based sunscreens have less harmful ingredients, while the nano hybrid sunscreens have chemical formulations flagged as linked to cancer by Skin Deep. That is the obvious inclination for anyone; however, this only invites ticks to bite into juicy, human skin.
