(Jamaica Gleaner) Jamaica’s first track and field star, Isis Clarke-Reid, died at her Port St Lucie, Florida, home on Monday, June 8, after a brief illness.
Reports in the local media around the time the former track star celebrated her 100th birthday on November 18, 2019, stated that the family’s only wish was that she be recognised publicly by the Jamaican Government before she passed.
SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECOGNISED SOONER
Nonetheless, the friend believes that with the family emphasising Clarke-Reid’s frail health in November, greater effort should have been made much earlier to recognise her place in history.
“(Clarke-Reid) and Gertrude Messam were the first women to represent Jamaica in track and field,” said David last November when he spoke with the media ahead of his sister’s birthday.
Last November, as she reflected on her time on the track eight decades earlier, Clarke-Reid said: “It was great.

We failed the people of Malawi when Africa, through its observers, gave the election of 21 May 2019 its blessing.
The African Union election observer mission reported that \"the elections took place in a peaceful, transparent and orderly manner, and thus met national, regional, continental and international standards for democratic elections... \".
Fortunately, the people of Malawi were saved by their courageous Constitutional Court which declared in a unanimous judgment the election null and void and ordered that a new election be held in free and fair circumstances that would guarantee a democratic outcome that would reflect the will of the people.
The legitimacy and success of Malawi's election is essential if we are to strengthen the movement towards democracy and legitimate governance on the African continent.
We should start by making sure that the Malawian election is free, fair and the result reflects the will of the people as an example of how democratic practices should unfold under this pandemic.

Although Uganda began to relax some of the lockdown rules last week, including allowing private vehicles to return to the roads, the country faces an uphill ride back to economic normalcy, a wide-ranging survey by this newspaper shows.
Mr Jean Byamugisha, the chief executive officer of the Uganda Hotel Owners Association, an industry lobby group, estimates her 500 members across the country will lose about $900 million (about Shs3.4 trillion) to the pandemic and the resultant lockdown.

Opinions are the writer’s own and not those of Blavity's. ____ Every summer, it feels like clockwork. A spike in violence, tough news cycles, politicians claiming to have the “answer” to decrease crime and keep communities safe. As a Chicagoan, I know how this story plays out. We throw money into crime “prevention” programs, hiring more police officers, putting more guns on the street to protect us from the guns in the hands of the “bad guys.” It never works. Yet, we still hope for a different ending. President Biden recently visited Chicago. His administration has called for five new strike forces to curb illegal gun traffic, increases in police hiring and violence intervention programs to kick off in 15 cities across the country. They’ve also encouraged cities and states to use COVID-19 relief funds to meet this...
