COMMENT OF THE WEEK

INDEPENDENCE AFTER 52 YEARS WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

07/13/25 10:08 AM

Down in Exuma, the southern island in The Bahamas, the Bahamian flag fluttered in the breeze at Regatta Park as it rose just before midnight on 10 July 2025.  This was the date 52 years ago that Lynden Pindling and his colleagues chose to lead the new nation the Commonwealth of The Bahamas into independence. The ceremony in Georgetown, Exuma was replicated around the country, even though the rain threatened to spoil it in Nassau.

It is an emotional moment for most Bahamian citizens.  On that morning and during the day, flags were flying throughout the country.  Bahamian music was being played exclusively on the radio stations.  People gathered in their homes dressed in national colours and everyone spoke Bahamian.

It was like time out from the divisions of other parochial matters.

On 11 July though, we get back to realty pretty quickly.  The fact is that our neighbours to the north are acting in ways that we find quite odd and contrary.  We are a majority black nation and as we watch things unfold, we are not quite sure that we as black people or even white Bahamians are welcomed into a land called America that we helped to build.  Today many of our citizens and their descendants of our citizens have lent their intellectual talent to the building up of that country. But it appears they have now descended into the madness of anti-immigrant fervour that catches both legal and illegal.

To show the tenor of the times: white  farmers who helped to maintain the racist state of apartheid South Africa are being welcomed into the US as victims while Haitians whose society has descended into chaos, largely because of American made weapons, and are legitimate refugees, are being sent back home.

Independence is an emotional step.  It is also a legal step.  We have the right legally to decide what we want but the practical reality is that most of our choices are dictated by the real politic.  We depend on the neighbour next door for our food, for our medicine, for our psychological well-being.  So we are in a strange positon practically speaking. What does keep us alive though is that emotional legacy bequeathed to us by our founders that we are a free an independent people and we will use what we have to maintain that freedom.

Number of hits for the week ending Saturday 12 July 2025 up to midnight: 1,378,286;

Number of hits for the month of July up to Saturday 12 Julye 2025 up to midnight: 2,133,841;

Exuma’s Next Generation

07/13/25 9:02 AM

It’s a long story but he is one of the youngsters who took the picture with me at the Junkanoo shack last Christmas in Exuma. He and his friends. The photo was enhanced and framed by Ambassador Jamaal Rolle. I wish Kaiden Burrows well. He came by to say thanks. I presented them each with the framed copy of the photo and a gift certificate to show my appreciation for their civility and sociability. I hope 50 years from now he remembers what he used to look like. Today’s photo was taken independence morning 2025 on Regatta Park in Georgetown, Exuma

THE ANTI IMMGRANT FEVER REACHES THE BAHAMAS

07/13/25 10:04 AM

The late professor of the University of the West Indies Rex Nettleford used to call them “ladies of quality”.  These are black and mulatto upper and middle class women in CARICOM societies that feel they are the cat’s whiskers and could pronounce with harsh judgments their social policies upon the world.  They have strong opinions.  These ladies of quality these days together with some rogues are engaged in a vile and nasty campaign against Haitians in The Bahamas that is led by prejudice.  Every day there is some screed on line about how Haitians are taking over The Bahamas. They are not.  Every day there is some cry that Haitians should be thrown out of The Bahamas. They glory in what is being done in the United States next door to us where short shrift is being made of legal processes and people willy-nilly are being picked up and abused and sent back to their home countries, countries to whom they no longer have any connection.  The language is most vile in Harbour Island. The claim is that young Bahamians cannot get work in that island because of Haitians. The facts show that the population of The Bahamas declined by rate of natural increase over the last ten years. Bahamians are not having enough babies. We are therefore not able to sustain a workforce. The facts also show that the work ethic of those who are available in the Bahamian pool leave a lot to be desired. They just don’t show up to work. Ask any contractor if they can find Bahamian labour and the answer is no. Yet the call for getting rid of Haitians persists. The Bahamas will not be the only country in the world where immigrants outnumber natives.  We need the Haitian labour. It’s as simple as that or the economy of the country, the very wealth that supports the ladies of quality will evaporate otherwise.

THE DEAL FOR THE HOSPITAL WITH THE CHINESE

07/13/25 9:57 AM

Congratulations to Health Minister Michael Darville and Prime Minister Philip Davis for getting the 200 million U S dollar loan from the Chinese across the line to get the new hospital in New Providence built. This was a signature promise of the last campaign and we are in the midst of the next campaign.  Not a moment too soon. The loan was signed over the objections of the United States who were first asked to provide the money but could not.  The structure is to be built by Chinese money but the equipment it appears may be financed by the Americans.  We shall see. Let’s hope that shovels are in the ground sooner rather than later, and the hospital is a reality as soon as possible. The signing took place on Friday 11 July 2025 at the office of the Prime Minister.

THE U S DOES NOT WANT US TO SIGN THE DEAL

07/13/25 9:50 AM

Before the Prime Minister of The Bahamas looked to China to get the money by loan to build a new hospital in Nassau, he asked the foreign ministry to look to the United States to provide the 300 million dollars that the country needed. The United States considered it then came back and said they could not provide the loan. Now the loan agreement is signed with the Chinese who will provide 200 million dollars to build the structure. The U S objected privately and have been on a campaign throughout our country to prevent the country from buying Chinese equipment and taking Chinese money.  It is quite sad that things have come to this.  Money knows no colour.  We need the hospital and we need to get it as quickly as funding will allow.

THE ANTI IMMGRANT CLIMATE IN THE U S GETS WORSE

07/13/25 9:46 AM

There is an odious media commentator by the name of Ann Coulter on Fox Television in the United States who said in a social media post that in America they just didn’t kill enough of the Indians. She was referring by Indians to the native Americans who were displaced by Europeans when they landed without an invitation in what is now the United States of America.  The irony is that the democracy that they founded did not consider all men equal.  They had black slaves who worked for free. Women could not vote. They killed the aboriginal populations at will and removed them from their lands without regard to legal provisions.  This is what people of colour face in the US today.  You do not know who is going to jump out at a black person or brown person and kill them on the streets of America.  All nations black and white have warned their citizens that people are being removed from the US and sent back home without regard to legal provisions that prevent abuse and protect the rights of individuals.  It is a very difficult time. The Bahamas government has warned its own citizens to exercise extreme caution when in the United States.

CARICOM ON WORLD PEACE AND ISRAEL AND GAZA

07/13/25 9:45 AM

The CARICOM Heads of Government meeting wrapped up its 49th session in Montego Bay, Jamaica on Tuesday 8 July 2025.  The conference was headed by Prime Minister Andrew Holeness of Jamaica. While much of the conference focused on internal CARICOM matters, the conference was most concerned about events in Gaza where killing and genocide of Palestinians continues apace without any let or hindrance.  The conference called for an end to hostilities and asked that peace be restored to the region within a two state solution where Palestine would have the right to its independence and sovereignty.

THE NATIONAL HONOURS ARE ANNOUNCED

07/13/25 9:43 AM

Now declared a National Hero, Pompey Rolle of Steventon, Exuma

Government House has announced the names of those honoured in this year’s National Honours announced on Independence Day each year.  Heading the list is Pompey the slave who led the revolt in 1830 from Steventon, Exuma who is now declared a national hero of The Bahamas. The entire list follows:

OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR GENERAL

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, MOUNT FITZWILLIAM

BAILLOU ROAD AND DUKE STREET

NASSAU, BAHAMAS

PRESS RELEASE: 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

In accordance with the provisions of the National Honours Act, Her Excellency, the Governor-General, The Most Honourable Dame Cynthia Pratt, O.N., G.C.M.G., Chancellor of the Societies of Honour, is pleased to announce the 2025 conferral of awards under the National Honours Act to Citizens of The Bahamas. 

Order of National Hero 

  • Pompey Rolle 

Pompey’s Revolt

In 1830, 77 Slaves on Lord Rolle’s plantation in Steventon, Exuma, were given only one week’s notice that they were going to be relocated from Exuma to Cat Island. The Response was a rebellion initiated by a 32 year old slave name Pompey. The enslaved African men and women fled to the bush rather than be moved before they could harvest their crops. When provisions ran out, 44 of them returned and seized Lord Rolle’s salt boat.  With Pompey at the helm, they headed for Nassau, hoping to appeal to anti-slavery Governor, Carmichael Smith. Apprehended en route, they were thrown into the Nassau workhouse, tried, and found guilty.

Being appalled by the harsh treatment the slaves were receiving, and learning that the move had been illegal in the first place, the Governor had Pompey and his followers returned to Exuma where they were greeted with mass celebration.  Further disruptions by the slaves led to the Government making an example of Pompey and publicly giving him 39 lashes.

Today, only a few walls of the jailhouse remain as a reminder of those dark days at Steventon, Exuma.
