Final thought on JA Independence

So the 45th anniversary of Jamaica's independence is gone and the celebrations that follow have tapered off. But, there are still some issues that will remain for a while for the Diaspora. This is evidenced by the comments and reaction stemming from a Sun Sentinel article written by Alva James Johnson. View article here.

After reading view comments here.

I will choose not to comment much except to say that for us in the Diaspora we have to concern ourselves with affairs in the home country and also issues in the communities that we live in.

More importantly, much recognition must go to Jerk Machine for the part that they are playing in the community. From the celebration that was referred to in the article to various events involving the Jamaica USA Chamber of Commerce that I have attended on occasion, Jerk Machine seems to be heavily involved in community affairs and much love go out to them for this.

True example of a business looking to be involved in the community it serves.
