    Damn right. My grandmother also. I was born at home, and didn't see a medical doctor till age twenty. She knew the medical value of every plant. My granny did it her way. She was the go-to person in the community. For example , if someone dies, sick, born, resolving disputes, etc. The baddest hoodlum, on the darkest country road, would, straighten his back, tuck his shirt in, and politely say "howdy" upon realizing that was my grandmother approaching... that is if he doesn't want to be clobbered with that walking stick, and sent home. Caution: Argue with her at your own risk.

    I wish y'all would stop acting like Garvey wasn't a traitor. He never stepped on African soil. He came to the US with those same talking points. And he was being paid by our government to get us to give all that we built in this country to the white man, while we go to Africa. That wasn't going to happen. And after years of failing to do what he was paid to do, they trumped up some charged and deported his behind. Even then he didn't go to Africa. He went to the whitest country in the world, ENGLAND. He never visited the African continent.

    @@everythingtv2325 yeah I’m not sure why ppl think Jamaica is close , but yeah, originally ppl from Angola and Congo taken in usa, but they brought over their language, culture and spiritual practices & used that to “harm/unalive” whte ppl, so after that no more African culture was allowed in usa. They took some ppl from all different parts of the Caribbean (Nigerians, Ghana, Togo, etc) so they couldn’t speak the same language and communicate, and brought them to the USA & told them , even young teens to have many babies as possible, then the babies was taken away from the mothers. The goal is to make sure no culture or shared language in USA to pass down to Africans American so they can’t unite and fight back again. (Google stono rebellion, Gullah Jack, etc) the Congo and Angolan ppl were fighting too much. Thats why most Africans and Caribbeans can’t connect with African Americans .

    @@Justafox305 The same thing that happened in the US happened in Jamaica, so there’s no excuse as to why black Americans are culturally different, other than they don’t want to be and that they assimilated more into white culture and languages. Babies were taken away on each plantation, and it wasn’t just one group of people; it was different groups from different parts of Africa. Culturally, the most dominant culture on the plantation would take over, then the most dominant culture would take over the country. As far as African culture here is different because the mindset of the Africans who came here changed over time; they wanted to be a part of white society, whereas in Jamaica and Haiti, we wanted to be separated. Black Americans fought for equality and unity amongst other races and to integrate; Jamaicans and Haitians fought for land and to be separated, so the values are different. Over time, white culture won over African culture in the US.

    Most Jamaicans wasn't proud to be an African only the Rastafari people in Jamaica embraces Africa and are proud of their African culture and heritage not until the rastas in started to preach about Africa and start telling Jamaicans that they are Africans and to look to Africa not Europe and America...Rastafari musicians were the only ones singing about African and fighting against slavery and apartheid so believe it are not most Jamaicans are not 100% into africa most of want to go to Canada England and America...only rastas want to repatriate to Africa...

    Are you Jamaican?, what type of Africa you guys see on tv and what type of Canada or Europe you see on tv?. Do Jamaicans see them as apart from Africans or do they thing the are related tov Europeans. These questions will help me form my understanding of the Jamaicans you are talking about.

    Who wants to own it are not, 95% of Jamaicans are of African ascendance. The blood of the fore-parents flows through their veins. While Jamaica isn’t in Africa, Africa is in the hearts of all the melaninated people.

    If you do your research. Africans were transported to Jamaica as Slave labor. The original indigenous people were Taino Indian peoples under the rule of Spain. Also, African culture and traditions are not consistent with Jamaican culture, tradition or belifes. Additionally, Reggae Music is a movement influenced by the Rastafarian movement which began in the 1930's with the coronation of Halie Selassie from Ethiopia; the AFRICAN country reggae artist are singing about.

    We’ve been in Jamaica for a few hundred years. We were in Africa for hundreds of thousands of years. Africa is literally in our blood. We’re walking around with African haplotypes and Benin sickle cell traits in our blood from the forest regions in West Africa. There’s nothing in our blood that ties us to Jamaica. Jamaica is what’s part of our story. Africa is our foundation, however, whether we acknowledge it or deny it.

We are a hybrid people- a new ethnicity who rose out of slavery, then encountered others who came to the island through indentured servitude and other immigrants. It's a fusion of cultures.

Also all the blacks in the americas are Americans unless you do your genealogy/ personally have a African parent from the continent of Africa you aren’t an African..I knw it’s a shock, it was for me too but truth is truth we are different ppl even Malcolm X told us this before he passed away that we here in the Caribbean, North,south and Central America are indigenous and are family sigh 😢but yawl will still promote all this b.s because y they teach it in school knw yourselves or ppl will choose something for you just knw that even Asia and Europe were riddled with its own indigenous black population but don’t take my word for it
