Too much bad news. Here is a kitten playing with paper.

My friend Juleus Ghunta has written another book. My children still love his first book, Tata and the Big Bad Bull, after many reads. (I wrote about Juleus 9 years ago now, check it out here.) Juleus is a remarkable person and his new book is compelling reading for just about anyone who has suffered trauma, or knows someone who has. It has a unique perspective I’ve never come across that will appeal to many different people. Its perspective is also specific to the Caribbean, which one can argue, holds collective trauma in its heart and mind that urgently needs healing. The illustrations are beautiful as well. Check out the links and you can pre-order the book.

Not much partying going on here these days…many people are looking forward to its resumption.

Preserving for posterity just in case. OZY seems to have run into some problems lately…

Vaccination advances at a glacial pace in Jamaica, not for lack of effort. The National Stadium was not that full when I went on Saturday and things were moving quickly. I appreciate the efforts of all involved. Everyone is working very hard.
