She soundly defeated the British and is an inspiration for many of the maroons. IF you go to Maroon town you can hear them speaking with great praise of this woman. Truly Jamaica’s only heroine.

I was doing some research on the author and came across this. I find it highly offensive that someone would state "that black people don’t read books". I am glad that he has gotten out there on his own and doing the right thing. I have a friend who has highly recommended his book. I was doing some research on the author and came across this.

Seeing you over the past two decades and knowing you indirectly growing up round town, to know what you have turned into as a young black man is heart warming. Keep up with the good work, you never know we might meet one of these days as I am also trying to break into this field as a young black woman from around the way.

Its very challenging for young black authors to get signed up. I suggest black authors use lulu.com and self-promote. Success no longer depends on a publishing deal. Von Mozar has done well.

By now I saw it three times, the last time I watched it was with my two teens, I broke it up one hour per week, they were almost moved to tears, even my son! The film documents why we as brown people are in such horrendous conditions. If you ever wondered why the people in New Orleans during Katrina didn't just leave, this film will bring you overstanding. Prepare your self, this film take you on a mental journey like nothing you have ever seen before. If you have any preconceived notions, that this will be the "same ol same" Masa slave story well, your wrong, and you will miss out a film that prehaps could change your life, or better yet your childrens lives. This film was made for the world NOT just brown people.
