What a well-told Jamaican Reggae story!
Bob Marley One Love is a very good film and I was happy to be at its premiere at Carib this evening.
It’s a must watch for lovers of Reggae and Marley. So please plan to see it when it goes on show in your area.

(1/2) This is what you call the strength of a Jamaican. An injured Tajay Gayle with his last jump, his leg heavily strapped, has qualified for the final of the Men's Long Jump with a leap of 8.14m. Wow. That's the heart of a Jamaican champion.
