‘UNINFORMED’
The Global Afrikan Congress (GAC) is demanding an apology from parliamentarian Everald Warmington for his “uninformed assertions” that Black Africans who sold people into the transatlantic slave trade should be held more accountable than Europeans buyers. In an open letter to Warmington, the GAC – an international Pan-African organisation of people of African descent across 35 countries – also urged the St Catherine South Western member of parliament (MP) to undertake necessary research to correct his “colonial miseducation”.

‘Jane Doe’ solidarity posts flood social media after Cornell rape lawsuit
NEW YORK (AP): It was one woman, then another, and another, until a trickle became a flood. Countless women, and some men, posted on social media that they were Jane Doe in support of a young woman using that name to file a lawsuit against Cornell University and seven fraternity members she accuses of raping her. For many, claiming the name came with sharing personal accounts of sexual abuse and assault, joining the wave of solidarity that has surged since journalists at the college’s independent student newspaper reported on the lawsuit filing late last month.

‘AI false positive becoming more common in music’
Artificial intelligence – referred to as AI – and its implications have been dominating the chat in the entertainment industry, whether it’s Hollywood or the global music industry. Recently, dancehall veteran, Papa Michigan, took to social media to “challenge AI” after one of his songs was flagged as AI by music distributor, TuneCore. Michigan, in the social media post, showed the studio and the musicians who played the live music on the track, and emphasised that he did not use AI at any stage of the production.

Editorial | Education reconstruction
Education Minister Dana Morris Dixon’s establishment last month of a committee to monitor the rehabilitation of schools damaged by Hurricane Melissa has not halted criticism by the teachers’ union of the pace of the reconstruction. Given the scale of the destruction left by the category-5 storm, more than 600 schools were damaged, over half of them severely, so, it would be unreasonable to expect that the education facilities would be restored in less than a year.
