How WE are portrayed? That video does not portray me or anyone else I know in Jamaica. If its anyone to blame, start with the dancehall artistes who make these gangsta videos wid di bag a man line off pan graffiti laced concrete wall a smoke weed an play wid weapons wid dem screw face.

The fact is that most tourists are aware of the fact that Jamaica has certain spots that are violent and most avoid those areas. I don't think this video does a disservice to our <span style="text-decoration: line-through">impeccable</span> already marred reputation.

The reputation of any group is decided by the action of those Which belong to It and have the ability to mold such reputation.

It is the so-called educated who are always too ready to blame the less educated instead of using their initiative done by the educated members of groups with stellar reputation.
All groups have members who make SN industry of tgr lesser quality of their members.
What these groups Do not do is to dot by snf blame their artistic members.
They simply use the media And every avenue to announce the positive activities.
But not Jamaican intellectuals.
No they proclaim that we All should face It And justify the label simply because some unfortunate members do these acts.
Then the give themselves accolades for being honest.

I think they should unstressed see themselves for who they are.

And it is not a very positive term either.

Education is certainly wasted on the majority of black people.

They dont really know the real potential of it.

That sounds like it can have a racist interpretation Doc. Shouldn't it read:

The 'mis-education' of the majority of black people has been certainly efficient?
