SVGSPN, S2E10--Marlon Alex James: A Legend Away From Home. Marlon Alex James is a retired professional footballer from St. Vincent and the Grenadines who played in Trinidad, Portugal, Vancouver and became a legend in the Malaysian league. But no one in St. Vincent really knows this. Young players back home who want to achieve what Marlon did in football don't know his story enough to use it as inspiration or a guide post. After a year in which St. Vincent's volcano erupted, displacing 20000 people out of their homes, where Covid-19 is still at pandemic level, where kids are not in school, not playing football, Marlon's story offers a reminder of what's possible for a Vincentian who wants to go farther than the limits, issues or problems in our country.
