Barbados - National motto, Pride and Industry; is the esteemed home of a vibrantly proud and mentally liberated people!
By Stanley Collymore
Barbados' climate and too its slave
based plantation system, allowed
for an economic boom for sugar
production, making it first England
and then, after the creation of the
United Kingdom, actually Britain's
wealthiest colony. Our homeland
Barbados, that was evidently the
birth place, of the iniquitous and
irrefutably essentially barbarous remorseless British slave society
colonized essentially by Britain's
powerful class elites that clearly
made their enormous fortunes,
singularly from sugar produced
by enforcedly enslaved and too
the crucially "disposable" solely
also Afro-Caribbean workforce.
Indisputably, phenomenal Bajan
wealth, which secured Britain's
place as the characteristically
imperial superpower which clearly
attendantly very deleteriously and
absolutely endemically too on the
part of the British caused them to
instinctively and rather purposely
very euphorically essentially as is
still evidently the case, even now
in the 21st Century; distinctively
inflicted back then, centuries of
horrendously untold and, most
conveniently induced, amnesia
nowadays - hardships globally!

Author's Remarks:
In profound and staunch, affectionate dedication to everyone of my fellow Bajans: our genuine and discernibly quite remarkably and commendable women, men and children; the bright young and upcoming generation, significantly also our middle aged and the blessed elderly; equally our effervescent political leaders and instrumentally, influential educators; our essentially, crucially empathetic, quite distinctly dedicated health care professionals, and the dutiful agents of law and order across our country - in loving association with our blood relations across our global Diaspora - stay strong to what ancestrally we do proudly carry in our precious genes.
Always remembering that people like ourselves with self-esteem don't brag, as they don't need to! Since everyone distinctively sees our greatness and does the bragging for us!
As for me, I'm rather flattered, totally proud, immensely honoured and also profoundly grateful to be ethnically a Bajan!
