Those who want to challenge re #Manley’s #leadership, I draw attention to the #CoVid19 pandemic & how leadership matters. Manley was man enough to eventually admit his mistakes & in hindsight said would have done things differently. I was in Jamaica & lived it. Where were you? Image
Because so many have sanitized #Manley & his wrong-doings, & try to immortalize him as a Saint, I owe it to my country,my conscience & my family to speak some truths of that era. It was not a ‘walk in the park’. Many atrocities were committed, even against very black Jamaicans
My very dark-skinned, university educated, engineer Brother-in-Law was harassed by ‘Comrades’ when he tried to sell-out & flee #Jamaica during #Manley era. Man dem dressed like brigadistas jumped on a table & insisted he should give-away, not sell his hard-earned posessions.

You know what’s funny? Thinking about elected office (running) and the times. Like, for example, right now I am on city council. #mnleg #GoGreaterMN #JOETOWNROCKS (thread)
I am debating running for mayor. #joetownrocks #Minnesota #GoGreaterMN #womenswork We’ve never had a woman mayor. 😳
But then I think how I’ve also thought about running for governor, #Minneaota has never gone female before on that... but the bottom line? I don’t want to run for office to be the first female anything. #joetownrocks #womenswork #mnleg #GoGreaterMN
