In the Shade of the Fire
depict the struggles of the Jamaican people's earliest beginnings and beyond emancipation of 1838.
"Sweet Island in the Sun
,"
Jamaica's beauty has been sung.
Jewel
in
the
British
crown
, the
fairest
isle eye has ever seen
and
land of wood and water,
are some descriptions of this island which I call home.
Surrounded by the sparkling azure Caribbean Sea that gives way to unspoiled white sand beaches and gentle coastlines. Abundant rivers cascade down into vigorous waterfalls, while others flow silent and lazy, offering leisure and rafting, with rugged gorges for climbing. It is truly a land of wood and water. Endowed with the lush, verdant Blue Mountains that afford beautiful views with a rugged sense of timelessness. There are bustling market towns that host some of the warmest and most hospitable people anywhere. It is a tropical island that offers its natural bounty in generous displays of the sun, sea, sand, and majestic mountains.
Flowers promenade in grand displays in any viable niche of ground. Bougainvillea spills and splashes her brilliant red, yellow, and orange hues, as lignum vitae, spreading and proud, shows off her lavender offerings that are now rewarded the place of honor, as the National Flower of the island. From lands far and near came exotic fruits like ackee, breadfruit and mangoes that now claim a place of pride, as they flourish in the abundant rainfall, and over three hundred days of life-giving sun.
Exotic Jamaica evokes a past that has tampered with human freedoms. A past where
pirates
buccaneers ravaged
her harbors as explorers extracted the resources of her fair aisle. Although these statements have lived on in infamy, there are some things, and some people too, that have slipped away unsung, with less than substantial testimony to their existence on this very land. This is an attempt to shed some light on their dubious past and come face to face with their African ancestry. From the cane fields through miles of estate lands, they survived poverty and social pressures to eventually own the lands their masters owned.
In the Shade of the Fire -
Fighting for Survival, is a story for the African Diaspora.
