    S1 E6: Millennials are Frustrated

    We are depressed, we are jobless, underemployed and devalued by a society which has yet to consider youth development beyond one-day symposium.

    S1 E4:CRIME DISCUSSION

    Reducing crime is possible but will no be easy. Depending on the government and security forces will not work because for some it's not a priority. Jamaica will need a cultural revolution. The people will have to change some of the things they proudly use to identify themselves as Jamaicans. We will have to become disciplined. The mass will have to place more value on education and learning The culture of glorifying badness and dysfunctional behaviour will have to stop. People at all levels of society will have to be held accountable for their actions. Family life will have to fix it. The man will have to play his role in the family. People will have to be responsible when it comes to sex and relationships. Those who are not in a position to take care of themselves much less a family should not start one. Great emphasis on teaching the real history of Jamaicans. Not the part where you were slaves but the history before that. Problem-solving conflict resolution will have to be to teach. Self-governance will be needed where people are allowed to govern themselves and not politicians. Abolish political parties and rewrite the Island’s constitution. One where the power is given to the people and they are not under a foreign state. Anybody pledged their loyalty to the brotherhood or any foreign entity should not be allowed to be in any leadership position on the island. Reorganize the police force. More focus on community policing. Every able-bodied man should do compulsory military training and serve for at least three years.
