Welcome

Welcome to the A Jamaican For Justice blog! So many times we have ideas and we set goals but somewhere along the way the we get cold feet. We think "does this really make sense?", "how will I get it done?", "am I in over my head?" 

At the dawn of each new year most, if not all of us, feel confident, buoyant,  re-energized for the road ahead. I've decided to harness this optimism for 2009. Will I be able to accomplish what I set out to do? Of course! I believe my goals and ideas are reasonable and attainable. And this is the fuel that sparked the fire that provoked me to start this blog.

A Jamaican For Justice is simply weekly commentary on the social and political framework of Jamaican society, with reference to a particular story, situation or idea that may surface in the media. Overtly displayed, or not, injustice - any form of wrongdoing - is reprehensible. Every day there is something that reminds me of how far we have allowed our values, our morals, to fall. We all have a voice, no matter the pitch, that can be used to bring about awareness, inspire insightful conversation, encourage transformation. I hope to achieve this through my blog. Keep your eyes peeled every Friday, beginning January 9, 2009, as I raise my voice on the issues and share my concerns. Enjoy!
