I was debating whether to share this but I’ve worked too hard to hide my success.
Between my depression, anxiety and the pandemic…it’s commendable that I even finished the degree.
I’m most thankful for the community that helped me make it through the last three years. 🙏🏾

The Barbados Constitution is to protect the interests of Barbadians. That includes Muslim bajans, queer bajans, white bajans,black bajans,rich bajans, poor bajans.
It’s not a Constitution for Christians only.

Ngl, as a foreigner I was surprised to see my name on the wall but, it just shows how connected we are across the region.
This is why xenophobia in the Caribbean makes little sense. Our histories are too connected for us to be this disjointed. Let’s fix that.

Don’t get sidetracked though, Barbados will always be home. If anybody asks, my first response is “I’m bajan”. That’s where my cultural identity was developed and the place that poured the most into me. 🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧

Last year we were all forced to isolate to keep safe, and experienced how difficult it is to survive; cut off from friends, family and resources.

We need a mandatory reporting protocol for child abuse. Too many persons know of children who are being abused and say nothing about it. It should be mandated that if you see something, say something.
Silence cannot be an option when a child is being raped, beaten, neglected...
