Change agents vs agents of publicity
THE EDITOR, Sir:
Recently I watched an interview with Marlon 'Kiprich' Plunkett.
At the end, he prayed a prayer for the misguided youth of this country. Primarily, that they change their errant ways and seek God's guidance. I was spellbound and in awe. Never had I seen an international recording artiste, who is non-gospel, pray. The only exception being Lady Saw, now Minister Marion Hall.
There is still hope for this country. Thinking aloud, I wonder if he is the son of Sis Plunkett she had a great singing voice.
Contrast his message and utterances with another recording artiste, Kanye West.
I am still pinching myself. The transatlantic slave trade and the enslavement of Africans on white plantations was by choice? By choice we subjugated ourselves to degradation, debasement, abuse, torture and brutal death at the hands of the slave owners.
Father God, help! By choice, the Jews experienced the holocaust?
By choice, millions live under despotic, tyrannical rulers, where attempted freedom of speech is met with imprisonment or death? By choice, millions are the victims of organised human trafficking?
Mr West, I pray for you.
