Sweet, Sweet Jamaica 50th Independence Celebration Independence is to black, green and gold as Jamaicans living abroad are to holding on dearly to their culture. If no other group of people is known all over the world for their global influence on music, food, fashion, and sports, it is Jamaica and the Jamaican Diaspora. As I reflect upon Jamaica’s Independence celebration in 1962, I am reminded of the high-spiritedness that accompanied it. Streets were filled with police and soldiers, marching bands and hoards of people on the sidewalk waving them along with their free black green and gold flags on a day that did not allow for rain, only for the hot, tropical sunshine.

Blake’s Road To London Via Adidas Grand Prix Although I booked a ticket for London at the end of April, it was not until the Adidas Grand Prix held at Icahn Stadium, Randall’s Island, June 9, 2012, that my “official” road to London began.  Watching Olympics 2012 in the US was a definite and resounding, “NO WAY!”  A refrain I’ve been muttering to myself for the past four years.  I hoped for months that it would be London, maybe Jamaica and possibly Canada.
