Many of these ‘masters’ use bully pulpits of authority to sow seeds of doubt in the minds of those easily fooled but thanks to you, each new attack brings forth acknowledging that there must be some hidden reason why I am repeatedly targeted without evidence of rational justification – A few are already realizing that this is not really about me but about them - about you.

As a gullible people we wish not to believe that the lasting effect of ‘hand me down Colonialism and Slavery’ teaches us to distrust and despise one another - They see themselves as the chosen and us as nobodies… As a result, they despise their own people so it annoys them that I not for sale and impede their mission to make us their 21^st Century slaves in their rush for power and money.

They regard the Sound of our Silence as Sweet Music for their Oppression:

They see it as ordained to keep us as silent sheep in the Biblical/ Slave mentality, where numerical minorities employed force and ignorance as means of subjugating numerical majorities in order to empower and enrich themselves… Of course, they still have willing victims who support their own demise without questioning the damage done to their civil and human rights.

History shows we are even programmed to destroy those who will save us… I have been there and seen there… It is no secret that I could have got whatever I wanted just by begging or selling you out and many cannot  understand why anyone would chose to endure ridicule and beatings even if it means tomorrow’s children learning from today’s Lessons – We do think it matters.

Some good men 50+-years ago felt the same and while I am no Mandela or Martin you have seen the trend – You may not know of every attack because the mission is to explain and not complain… However, you already know of several such incidents which the perpetrators were unable to justify while you can easily check and verify the accuracy of my claims… Example:…

Forced Retirement as Senior Radiographer at Government Hospital:

No Official Reason was ever given because they had none whereas I publicly stated that this was due to my refusal to go along with apparent corruption within the Public Medical Services

Removal as Minister of Health, Education & Welfare

No Official Reason was ever given because they had none whereas I publicly stated that this was due to my refusal to chase dollars or go along with systemic incompetence and corruption.

The Blocking of the B&F Building Complex’s Building to better serve the People

No Official Reason was ever given because they had none as a result, not only was this eventually approved by the Premier but we won our case in court – However, unreasonable court delays on a separate matter continued to block progress… As a result the public perceives this as nothing more than envy, greed and corruption within individuals and associated systems.

The Indulgence of Squatters Claim to Ownership of My Registered Property:

No official reason was ever given because there was no justification and we remain in limbo as the squatters continue to abuse my rights… Again public perception of this is nothing more than envy, greed, corruption and bad-mindedness within persons and associated systems.

The undue Blocking of Work Permits and Registration along with Removal of Staff

No official reason was ever given although those involved appeared to have given themselves the power and authority to make and break laws… This mal behavior emanates from Labour Dept, Nursing Council, Allied Health Council, Medical Council and the Health Authority among others.

This sends a message of acute envy, greed, corruption, incompetence and bad-mindedness.

Our people are hurting badly and good leaders would seek ways to help and not hinder… For them to become fixated on personal vengeance and malice in their mission to shut us down rather than acknowledge that robbing our people via an ill-advised Health Insurance Scheme in order to pay for a misguided hospital and incompetent Health Service Authority simply multiplies the problem.

Furthermore, the level and frequency of such malicious behavior suggests members within these groups are allowing personal greed and interests to override the public’s interest to the point of doing major harm to the people and territory as a whole - Not only are they stifling the economy but they are denying BV-Islanders the right to meaningful employment in their own country.

It is becoming evident that attacking me is proving counterproductive because an informed public is already realizing that any Governmental effort to destroy us as a  Private Health Care Provider - so that the ‘NHSA & NHIS’ twins will survive - serves more to expose their own Deviousness and Inability to manage our National Health Service or Health Insurance Scheme.

The ongoing intent of Radio & Courts to silence me by Dismissal, Threats & Incarceration

Again, official reasons range from none to ‘my failing to abide by antiquated slave laws’…

This may have merit for there is no doubt that uninformed and voiceless people can never be free… The fact that I speak truth in refusing to chase the dollar or go along with injustice and corruption renders me ‘Not for Sale’ and makes oppressors and slave masters quite unhappy.

In fact this marks Week #60 since being thrown off ZBVI Radio because masters appear to dislike truths I tell and would rather keep children as victims of systems where forces of evil build courts and jails for descendants of slaves… Again thanks to ZROD, ZVCR, Virgin Islands News Online, BVI News Online and Island Sun Newspaper, Truth for the Youth survives.

However, with so much still to be done, let’s not be fooled into believing we can win without a struggle… We can only succeed when freedom overcomes fear and wisdom overcomes war… Today, we have seen what can be done as voices of the people forced Prime Ministers and Presidents to change course… We too can make a difference by standing up and speaking out.
