Thank you, this was excellent! I watched this with my mum who grew up with many of the people in the video. So grateful to my grandfather who was a fisherman, he sold a lot of his land in West End but insisted he was not selling all because he wanted to leave each of his children a piece of land.

The story of my Family, from West End and little by little had their beachfront land where they were born n lived n loved on for time eternal (were Carib Arawak as my GrandDad called his Mama n nem) sold away and squatted on by people from ‘foreign’. My GrandDad like his Granddad were ‘seamen’ built boats, sailed boats, pit jerked thee BEST chicken n fish and made n sipped that ol rum in a jug lol. Light to their Spirits. This is a beautiful documentary! Gratitude for this project, WE must tell OUR stories so the generations after will know their legacy. Blessings💛🐚🍍

Excellent!!! Big Up Negril (been there in 1995-when there was not that much development, only 1 two story Hotel!!! I stayed in a tent on the 7 mile white sand beach owned property by a Jamaican couple who made their money in England and returned to Negril, bought beach front property and property across the road and built a nice house, built one bungalow on the beach next to where I pitched my tent, and they made a good life for themselves!!! They were very kind people and my rent to pitch the tent and has access to the bathroom and shower was only $15 US per day!!! I am a Caucasian American from California and they treated me very well, cooked for me, drank Red Strip and white rum and smoked with them and ate at the "Country Cafe" every morning-Ackee and no salt fish, fried dumplings, Callaloo, fruit salad and Blue Mountain Coffee!!! Delicious!!! I drank fresh live young Coconut Juice straight from the Green Coconut!!! Rented a run down bicycle and rode to the Negril West end Cliffs for a dive and snorkeling, had fresh orange juice and bought some fresh psychedelic mushrooms, went to a Reggae concert by the band called "Indica" on the beach at night, drank rum punch, smoked spliff, ate Fish Tea and Rice and Peas all with the Local real Jamaicans!!! No racism towards me!!! I even took a 2 hour Bus trip to Sandy Bay Montpelier is located near the western boundary of Saint James Parish, Jamaica, approximately 10 kilometres from the parish's capital Montego Bay. I stayed in the hills and mountains there with the Don of the Parish and a good farmer of Plantain, Yam, Ganja, Sugar Cane, Breadfruit, his name was "Paco" his wife "Millie and their many children who live in a run down 1 bedroom shack in the Mountains. They even had Goats and Chickens. Paco bought me a Nyabinghi drum from the Montego Market so i could get a better "Jamaican local" price-$60 US!!! I bathed in the mountains in a spring and drank fresh clean spring water, "Millie" cooked me breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday!!! It was so nice and Irie!!! I loved it and I long to go back but money and passport are blocking me right now to return to Jamaica. Maybe one day JAH will bless I with the resources to return to my favorite Country of all time!!! May the real Jamaican citizens get Equal Rights and Justice and economic improvement and freedom!!!! One Love from Humboldt County North West Coast of California!!!🙂🙏✌🔥❤💛💚✝✡

This is fantastic. Please do more. This could be a wake up call to folks and teachable information. Sadly without infrastructure then and none now, there cannot be any real growth and enhancement for citizens and economy. An economy that satisfies not just Negril, the surrounding areas, Westmoreland and the parishes and Jamaica as a whole. Myopia and lack of sophisticated exposure to "real world business development, infrastructure and innovations." Stop depending on the government, come together and also VOTE for the issues you want and need - healthcare facilities, educational institutions, employment opportunities beyond "tourism," security, and other types of industries. If it is not happening, vote them out. You cannot be held prisoner to a party or color when your lives, future and legacies are being destroyed. Oversight committees that are accountable and responsible for ensuring that the important aspects are created from those hotels and tourism owners. Even if the (foreign) investors bring money, there should be informed and educational negotiations between all who will be impacted and are stakeholder in the community. Investment should mean all benefits. Who builds on the beach - Jamaica is the only country in the world with such idiocy!!!!!! Very laughable. There has to be a willingness to consider all aspects and negotiations, move as one not individually since you see what you are up against. Ask New York, Miami, Hollywood, London, Paris, Istanbul, etc. how do they do business and ensure that there is positive infrastructure growth and opportunity - they did this sans money at time as well as investment options. No more duping of the people because of money, exposure and influence perceived by the "outsiders." Jamaica is still acting like they are under colonial rule and are being held down.

I stayed at grandma's on my first visit to Negril im thinking 1975 or 76- the rooms were just being built some of them, and we entered the room in the dark- and I put my hand up to the light switch and it was a big wire sticking out of the wall it threw me across the room! zzzzzz! I have had a passionate and intense relationship with Jamaica and Jamaicans ever since. We slept in tents on the property of Maurice Lynch , and we full on took on the Rasta Ital lifestyle. Big influence. #0 mpoeple from the Island of Newfoundland off the east coast of Canada with dreadlocks in our usually straight hair! Ha!! When we visited e would buy big papayas way down in the original market, and try to get all the way to the west end on foot without eating it. Impossible. walking in the hot sun. The best place on Earth.

Crime is a biproduct of poverty. In my limited experience only living here two years, no one is paying a livable wage. IF they can get jobs they’re given $15,000 ($100US) per week…..to me that is the obvious culprit of why crime is the way it is.

Research has shown that socioeconomic disadvantage, including poverty, can contribute to higher crime rates due to factors such as lack of economic opportunities, inadequate education, and limited access to resources and support systems. While poverty alone may not directly cause crime, it can create conditions that increase the likelihood of criminal behaviour. I’m just saying 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤨💭🙇🤔🧐

AWESOME job, Dwight!! The end section needs to be viewed by the politicians and developers alike!! You have done a TRUE SERVICE by recording these voices - not only for posterity, but for those involved with Negril’s current development! Spread the words of wisdom!! Thank you for your effort!!

The video was shot outdoors for the most part. Can’t control the environment
