Very excited and happy to have been producing this event for one year now. It’s been an amazing thing to see the platform grow and develop into something much bigger than just an event.

The Paramount Queen of the Maroons, the beautiful and extraordinary Gaama, Gloria ‘Mama G’ Simms, Founder and Director of the Maroon Indigenous Women’s Circle, is a national treasure whose messages of National Pride ignites a flame in heart and soul of the Jamaican National Pledge itself and speaks to the very foundation of what that pledge means and our responsibility to our country to create a unified nation not just for Jamaica, but for the upliftment of the world and the entire human race.
Mama G is one of our greatest inspirations on this Journey, and a true veteran, defender, and mother to our nation. We journey with her through Charlestown and were honored to have her speak about the at our launch with
Before God and all mankind, I pledge the love and loyalty of my heart, the wisdom and courage of my mind, the strength and vigour of my body in the service of my fellow citizens; I promise to stand up for Justice, Brotherhood and Peace, to work diligently and creatively, to think generously and honestly, so that Jamaica may, under God, increase in beauty, fellowship and prosperity, and play her part in advancing the welfare of the whole human race.
