#Repost @rebelorisha ・・・ from @jamaicagleaner - The history books are explicit in their narratives about the total genocide of the Tainos in Jamaica. Yet, it is a fact that the Taino DNA had survived through interbreeding, and there are many Jamaicans, some of whom are academics, who have laid claim to their Taino ancestry and preserving Taino heritage. Robert Pairman is one of the people who are active in preserving the Taino heritage in Jamaica, and recently he was enstooled in an elaborate ritualistic ceremony as kasike (cacique) of the Taino Tribe, Jamaican Hummingbird (YukayekeYamayeGuani), inside the Asafu Yard at Charles Town Maroon village in Portland.

The Government is being encouraged to create targeted programmes to involve more women in technical vocational education and training (#TVET). The call came from members of the Young Women in Leadership House of Representatives, who had their first sitting on Tuesday. Arguing that access to TVET programmes increases formal employment earnings, human capital, and one’s ability to navigate the modern workplace, Sandrine Morris, who represented St Catherine North Central, lamented that women in rural areas especially have limited access to these institutions.
