@julietcuthbert Always been

[Mia Amor Mottley @miaamormottley]

Jamaica has lost one of its great builders of sport, and the Caribbean has lost a man whose work gave all of us reason to stand taller.

Stephen “Franno” Francis helped turn talent into discipline, promise into excellence, and Caribbean speed into a language the world could not ignore. We saw the athletes flying down the track, carrying Jamaica and the region with them. Behind those moments were the early mornings, the hard truths, the science, the standards and the belief of a coach who helped make greatness possible.

Barbados, too, felt his hand through our own Sada Williams, whose journey at MVP helped carry her to historic heights for our country. For so many boys and girls across the Caribbean, his work proved that small islands can still shake the world.

On behalf of the Government and people of Barbados, I extend deepest condolences to his family, the MVP family, his athletes, the people of Jamaica, and all across the Caribbean who mourn him with gratitude.

May he rest in peace, and may his legacy continue to run in every young athlete who dares to believe.

45 years ago today... on May 21, 1981, Bob Marley was laid to rest.

In keeping with tradition and the artist's personal passions, five symbolic objects were placed in his coffin:

A Gibson Les Paul guitar – his favorite, iconic musical instrument.

Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made it possible for evil to triumph.”

@ingridriley It is also refreshing to have a "new" face discussing these issues rather than the gatekeepers of culture

[SHANE REACTION @imshanereaction]

There's just something so endearing about the disdain Maggie Smith had for being famous and the contempt she felt towards Downton Abbey for getting in the way of her quiet life.
