One of the many things I love about JA is knowing the pulse and rhythm of the country run deep...from dancehall nights in Kingston to summer festivals in London and Toronto.

Feel the pulse & lively up yourselves. 🇯🇲

We need more heroes like Marcus Garvey these days.

He was a global voice for Black pride and unity...from Jamaica to Harlem to Martha's Vineyard - his legacy fuels what we must stand for today.

Celebrate greatness & gratefulness.
