This was the view expressed by Senator Harcourt Husbands, Parliamentary Secretary in the Ministry of Education, Science, Technology and Innovation, as he spoke at an Official Book Launch Ceremony to celebrate the work of author Dr. Dan Carter, who wrote “The Story of Society Primary” to capture the prestigious history of the school, which was the first elementary school in Barbados for Blacks. Speaking directly to the work of Dr. Dan Carter,Senator Husbands, himself a former teacher, noted that it was during a recent debate of the Cultural Industries Bill in the Senate that he predicted that there would be an explosion of talent in the literary field, with a number of writers coming to the fore. Already, he said, there are numerous local writers who have made a mark on history’s page and the quality of their contributions cannot be overlooked in favour of musicians, artists and other cultural practitioners. “I also made the point that the contribution of our writers is overlooked and musicians, especially calypsonians (garner) the lion share of the public’s attention. At that time I noted a number of individual writers whose work I said had impressed me.I mentioned “Whispers of Peace to My Soul” by Ralph Thorne; “Listen to the Hills” by Cynthia Wilson; “The Shuffler’s Tale” by Sir Carlise Burton; “Eye Witness to Order and Disorder” by Harold Hoyte; “The Encyclopedia of Reggae” by Michael Alleyne; “Bengal to Barbados” by Sabir INDEPENDENT WOMEN: Women Entrepreneurs of Barbados’ (WEB) Technical Advisor, Undine Whittaker ad- Nakhuda and Andrea Stuart’s “Sugar in mires the wide range of items on display by WEB member Leona Lampkin of Caesar L.L Variety in time for Independence the Blood”, Husbands pointed out.

Speaking to the media recently at a press briefing regarding the new traffic lights at the Westmoreland junction, Minister Hinkson also used the time to encourage Barbadians to be prepared for the hurricane season. “The reality is that we are very far from the height of the season and that Barbadians and residents must remain vigilant as to what can happen and nothing beats preparation,” stated Hinkson. The minister highlighted that for the first time, Barbados would be preparing for the season in the midst of a global pandemic. He explained that the current administration, through the National Advisory Committee, has been making preparations for the hurricane season and the committee has met five times over the last six weeks. “We would have met with social welfare, whose responsibility it is to ensure that people are protected socially, the most vulnerable. We have been involved with the Ministry of Agriculture to ensure that there will be food supplies to each area of Barbados in the event that any district in Barbados is cut off and that there would be sufficient food channelled to that area,” explained the minister. Hinkson also mentioned meetings with the Housing Ministry where stronger arrangements were made for the supply of building material, if there is a need for swift repairs for the houses of any residents impacted.
