    Salute to a great man, even though he's not amongst the living anymore but having come to learn about his awe inspiring legacy he has left Jamaica in particular and by extension the British West Indies is testament that great men are few that walked the earth...God must have had his hands on him.
    I wish this interview was about 3 hours long.
    He's indeed the father of the nation of Jamaica similar to our father of the nation of Guyana 🇬🇾, Dr. Cheddie B. Jagan.

    After watching interviews with both Norman and Michael I'm more drawn to Norman. He seems more charismatic and so funny lol 😂 when he spoke about that Cuban Dandy thing he had me rolling lol. He was such a handsome guy too Edna truly had a good one👏🏻.

      Kary Babii there is a quiet mischief behind his eyes and that smirk. But as far as charisma, all accounts say he was extremely shy and reserved, and was only loud and outspoken when in court.

    Many J'cans say that Norman M was less radical than his son Michael - that Michael was reckless & his dad was more studied & stable. I disagree. Daddy Manley was just as radical, becuz u have to be in order to get freedom.

    • @StrongCaramel
      @StrongCaramel Před 5 lety +1

      Paul Haye I agree. He was just far less in the spotlight than his son. A quiet fire behind the scenes. But that entire family were troublemakers. Even Bustamante was quite radical. Baring your chest in front of British soldiers daring them to shoot you, in what was a state of emergency, is also a radical act of defiance.

    Manley was a man of considerable intellectual depth, wiser than his son Michael who was articulate but lacked his father's depth. Manley, excusably, overstates his 1938 role. The interviewer is not intelligent and goes all over the place, does not take a logical chronological approach and fails to fully examine important aspects of his career like the founding of the PNP, the federation and his relationship with Bustamante. Still it was a pleasure to watch. I like the Manley credo of having complete confidence in one'sself.
