    This was a great interview. Kudos to the interviewer for clocking the appalling stupidity of people who bought into the political bs into perpetuity. Mr. Wales was so interesting to listen to.

    Josie Wales is one of the main characters in Marlon James' "a brief history of seven killings." An amazing narrative about the political violence created in Jamaica

    The most important part of this interview is at 5:30, with the interviewer clocking the absolute stupidity of the political "admirers". "People seemed very smart". "Seemed" being the operative word. My dad wrote in his journal just before we left Kingston in 1970: "And now, so begins this country's long, slow, undignified slide into its place as an international joke." West Kingston was a Machiavellian's wet dream. A captive, overpopulated populace with rural, uneducated socioeconomic backgrounds, paralyzed by their ability to accomplish nothing, looking for the next political/don "saviour" to visit the ghetto and fling out free eat-a-food at the residents, not grasping that in taking the "magic bus" to come to town without reading, writing and numeracy, they were basically exchanging the agrarian sugar cane plantation for the urban political one; with effectively the same result. When that willful ignorance became ubiquitous mindculture across the island, it was game, set and match. Jamaica became child's play for the far more cynical and sophisticated United States government and its military-industrial complex. Now, the U.S. is geopolitically done with Jamaica, but the dumb fuckery prevails. It is not a coincidence that Jamaicans overseas form one of the largest, most highly-skilled, intelligent and ambitious diasporas on the planet. Jamaican pilots flying planes for other countries, Jamaican educators acting as deans at Ivy League universities, Jamaican physicians practising in foreign hospitals, Jamaican nurses basically predominating in the U.K.'s NHS, Jamaican lawyers and legislators sitting in Houses of Commons in other countries, Jamaican bankers and economists holding executive positions at financial institutions in Canada and the United States. Anybody who didn't buy into the political freeness bullshit got on a plane to go hustle opportunity "a forrin". Obika Gray wrote about the power of lumpenproletariat culture in Jamaica. That culture literally alienated and eventually drove out the country's very talented social and economic capital. What is now left are crafty rich politicians/dons and their affiliates, and the impoverished residents who are willing to act as their constituents as long as there is a tin of mackerel in the exchange. Smh

      From 1963 when JLP build the 1st 3 garrisons started the division. Before that PNP and JLP supporters live side by side, no areas then could be called a PNP area or a JLP area.

    I live through those days as a young woman seeing Tony Spaulding, Tony Welch and all those rude boys from Kingston 12 and 13. Honestly, the general aptly described the life it was like bitter tamarind. Things and sounds of bullets I would like to forget. Worst decade of my life!
