Episode Details

Prime Minister Andrew Holness is launching a bold cultural revolution across Jamaica, championing the creation of new museums to preserve and celebrate the nation’s rich history—not just for tourism, but as a vital tool for education, identity, and national pride. With plans for museums in Morant Bay, western Jamaica honoring Sam Sharpe, and Port Royal already under construction, Holness warns that without these stories, young Jamaicans risk looking to “pretenders” for inspiration. The initiative centers on making history engaging and accessible for children, transforming documents into interactive exhibits and showcasing artifacts to bring the past alive. A long-discussed national sports museum is also being revived, aiming to connect every Jamaican with their heritage in meaningful, inspiring ways.
