There may be some benefit, but bottom line is I now realize that the cost to Jamaica far exceeded the benefit and from our personal standpoint we are all a little richer materially and less so spiritually. The vacuum created from the best and brightest leaving has been replaced by hollow vessels, the Jamaica ship is taking on water fast and the leadership cannot even understand what's happening, how to plug the holes, how to row the boat, how to even understand where to go from here, nothing but here and now decisions.
We as a diaspora group are scattered and dispersed and our efforts have little synergy beyond our own personal input.
A di truth I know it hurts but is reality. I see so many solutions yet there is no movement on any of the simple things that need to happen, just the opposite, we are well on our way to losing the most important thing we have ever had, a unique, grounds, spiritual, yet very competitive culture.

Talking firebun on this website is not putting fire to Babylon anywhere. True firebun is economic empowerment from the heart out, it is not hot-air, it is not military and it is definitely not reparations!!!
As to bunnin....mi bun Babylon, all inquity werka & all backward elements whe ah hold back di Black Nation...as mi si fit. Bunnin dem ting deh nuh tap mi from performing works...as mi very limited capability allows
Re leffin' Yaad...That does not have to be a negative. In fact it can (for some evolved folks) be converted into a huge positive. Living abroad gives you broader perspectives, experiences and relationships one can leverage as well as being relieved of the petty/small-minded, stultifying environment in JA... That nexus can spark Big Ideas and change in Jamaica
Stoni that is exactly how the self-government movement got a spark out of New York City's Jamaican immigrant community, the Jamaica Progressive League etc. When that was linked with NW Manley & his Drumblair/JC Crew...Self-government was achieved...then Independence (sorta )
NYC is also where Garvey was able to flower into a worldwide phenomenon and Lion of the Black Nation...until crucified by Babylon
So Stoni living abroad is no impediment to contributing to JA....and can be a BIG ADVANTAGE...That's where the incipient STEM Revolution currently flowing out of NYC comes into play. I would have though a man of your exposure & perspicacity would have realized this...mah bad
So this thought of yours is extremely misguided...it was a mistake for so many of our best to have left ja and now our contributions are just merely dried candlewax, hardened and immobile.
As Madiba said: It's in our hands.
Now go forth...and sin no moreLast edited by Don1; October 24, 2015, 09:58 AM.

...Workers run di cut... Cause we've got no time to lose... Time too serious now
Hats off to all who are activists in the cause of uplifting the Black Nation by going out in our communities and working in the trenches... whether done publicly or privately
However when one is trying to spark a Revolution...remaining silent is not an option...Broadcasting The Message in all fora is part of The Mission. That's how people are informed, mobilized...then organized. It's not about personal profit or self aggrandizement..it's about The Mission
Spreading the message of the Revolution over the hills, valleys and plains of the Black Nation is what is indicated...and is what we're taught to do from school daze.
Marcus also teach wi dat lesson ..and teach wi to be prepared for the Fifth Columnists, Yappers & Empty Vessels the Black Nation is so infected with. That set is a HUGE part of our problem
Suh folks fi get used to D1 The Loudspeaker...Impervious to any negativity from Yappers, Poseurs, Empty Vessels & BadMinded FolksTags: None
