Curves will get you into the Queen book!

It is really beautiful to see how much recognition black women are getting now a days for the beauty of their skin and hair. However, I've noticed that when it comes to body types women who are more curvy with big breasts and bottom are the ones who used to represent what a black queen represents. I'm wondering what about the women who aren't so well endowed don't they qualify as queens? Pushing only this type or mostly this type will leave so many of our beautiful queens feeling inadequate. Our women are already left with images of what the perfect female looks like on social media instead of having the support of the black community women are left feeling the same way.

We need to remember that just as our black women come in different skin shades they come in different body types. A queen should be known as a queen by the way she speaks, the goodness in her heart, her knowledge of self and the natural beauty she has. Our women can also highlight their natural attractiveness without being completely naked. Why is it that the black community will attack a white woman for dressing revealing but embrace a black women for doing the same because she was created to be at one with earth and embrace her nakedness. Come on if we are going to speak out against something do so without any hypocrisy. Queens have small bottoms! Queens have small breasts! Queens are straight! Queens have relaxed hair! We can educate without discriminating! Let us educating all our queens about their roots and show some appreciation regardless of the exterior. We have enough divisions in this world we need more unity in our black community.

Reimagining the Big Screen: How Palace Amusement Can Level Up the Jamaican Movie Experience

As a Digital Marketer in Jamaica, how would I revamp Palace Amusement? Here are some of my ideas: 1. The History of Palace Amusement - Create a campaign highlighting where the company is coming from, where it is now, and where it will be. Speak to grandparents who visited at the start, and have each group share their experience. Tie these experiences in with a film of the time. 2. The Love of Palace – Many couples have had their first dates at the movies, sparking relationships that blossomed into marriages and lifelong love stories. This campaign will highlight some of these real-life romances using a black-and-white aesthetic to evoke nostalgia and emotional connection in a visually captivating TV commercial, which will also be promoted across digital platforms. The campaign will culminate in an in-person event where couples with similar love stories will be invited to a special screening of the romance movie currently showing. Brands will be invited to partner in creati...

The Young are being murdered

The death of the young By:©Saccheen Laing I put on my uniform Armed with books I set out in search of a good education. Streets lined with the blood stains of those who fell on the way I'm determined to live to see another day But I have no control over those who believe they can have their own way. Armed with guns and knives They attack me, They assault me, They abuse me , Because they believe they have control over me Because of guns and knives in hand. In my hands I write my plans A singer, an actor, a doctor, a fashion designer or a police man I clench my fist as my blood runs to join those who fell before My plans remain in my hands Never to be realized I am young but that means nothing on this land. The blood of the young will replace the ocean that surrounds and beautifies the land How many more shall die before you answer when I ask why? My mother shall cry and bury her son before he becomes a man My brot...

New Look, Same Tastee: Creative Digital Rebrand Ideas to Revive the Brand Online

My first patty love was Tastee Patties, and to be honest, it is truly disappointing to see that they have failed to capitalize on and take the brand to new levels. In this blog post, I will break down some of the ideas that I would implement to revive the brand in the digital space to surpass what competing brands are currently doing. The First Bite In primary school, Tastee Patties felt like a reward; our end-of-week treasure after saving a few dollars from lunch money each day. That first bite was more than food; it was joy, friendship, excitement, and pure Jamaican childhood wrapped in a flaky crust. The First Bite Campaign will tap into that shared memory, reconnecting generations to the Tastee moment they’ll never forget, while also introducing younger Jamaicans to the brand in a way that feels timeless, cultural, and deeply personal. Tastee Canteen Makeover Challenge Tastee Patties has been a staple of school lunches across Jamaica for decades, sponsoring canteen areas and m...
