About this user
My passion is youth and ensuring that they get the best education possible so that THEY can change the world. I have been an educator for 22 years and am blessed everyday to work with children....they are our hope and our future! I have two amazing children, a son who is 19 and a daughter who is 17. They are my pride and joy! I was born and raised in Kingston, Jamaica, and was transplanted to the US in my teen years. I now call South Florida home, however, I am Jamaican to the core. I love my cultural heritage especially the music and the cuisine of Jamaica. Some of my heroes include Nelson Mandela, Marcus Garvey, Martin Luther King, Mahatma Ghandi, Mother Theresa, BOB MARLEY, Rosa Parks and anyone who stood for equality and social justice through peaceful means (NOT BUSHISM).
I ask that each and every visitor check out my playlists as they are very carefully chosen videos!
I apprecilove people of all races, colors, classes and religions as GOD loves all of HIS children!!!!!! A person should be judged not on the color of their skin, the origin of their existence, but on the CONTENT OF THEIR CHARACTER!!!!!
I DESPISE WAR, RACISM , RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION AND CLASS PREJUDICE!!!
WAR
by H.I.M Haile Selassie and sung by Bob Marley
Until the philosophy which holds one race superior
And another
Inferior
Is finally
And permanently
Discredited
And abandoned -
Everywhere is war -
Me say war.
That until there's no longer
First class and second class citizens of any nation
Until the color of a mans skin
Is of no more significance than the color of his eyes -
Me say war.
That until the basic human rights
Are equally guaranteed to all,
Without regard to race -
Dis a war.
That until that day
The dream of lasting peace,
World citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued,
But never attained -
Now everywhere is war - war.
