Like... I have heard that the Bajans think they are more educated than the rest of us...and therefore...
Well, they do have a high literacy rate but ...does that make them more educated? Hmm...
Trinidadians have about 23 islands in their archipelago on which to frolic and have fun.
I did not even know that until now...oh dear!

Did you know that jamaica has many more than that?
well over a hundred some even have wild goats that fisher men go and hunt and sell.You probably know of Pedro cays, which is quite afew.there is a fishing village there complete withpost office and coast guard station.Then there is aonther group of islands called Morant Cays. those are a few miles off shore and there are a number of Islandsa closer to shoer. One is Lime cay,but there is gun cay,goat Island navy Iskland,and too many to remember. If you come in contact with maritime navigational chart of Jamaica. you will probably be surprise that jamaica has so much land that no one claim.
I know about those; yes...but mi neva think about dem like dat. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/704555_dwl.gif[/img]

They are all Jamaicans when it benefits them.
They also are always quick to try and rush in for th ebenefits when Jamaicans fight for equality.
Like in the farm work program in south Florida.
The jamaicans usually get more favorable treatment than th eother islanders,because they refuse to stand up for themselves.
They are usually grumble about the disparity,and nothing is ever done about it.

It is kind a logical if yoy know that nation of Islam is the successor to Marcus Garvey's UNIA. And many of the members trace their lineage to members of that organization.
Just like how many of the Apallo Theatre's current exesutives can trace their lineage to immigrants from Jamaica tgat was involved in the black renisanse of the time
