AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Reparations Push: Jamaica’s slavery petition to King Charles III is packed with decades of research, including estimates of millions forcibly transported to the Caribbean, as Caribbean leaders gear up to press the case in major international forums. State Care Shock: The CPFSA says a 16-year-old ward was impregnated by another ward while in State care, after “unsuccessful” separation measures—sparking fresh anger over communication and oversight. Court Win: A Westmoreland woman was awarded $11m after immigration authorities allegedly violated her constitutional rights by removing her from a flight and holding her passport for months. Drought Pressure: In St Elizabeth, prolonged drought is hitting farms and schools alike, with parents struggling to keep children in class as schools ration water and truck supplies. Back-to-School Support: Farmer’s Heights families in St Ann received books, supplies and food ahead of the new term. Health & Faith: Jehovah’s Witnesses eased rules on medical use of donated blood products, while keeping bans on whole-blood transfusions. Culture & Music: Patra says she’s regained “freedom” as she returns with fresh momentum, while dub poet Sheldon Shepherd released Give Thanks ahead of Earthstrong. Education Focus: Top educators returned from the ASCD conference ready to reshape teaching, with renewed emphasis on literacy and classroom transformation.
