now this one for my ready when I heard
about the story
om in it hit very close to home for me
some folks who don't know but my parents
from Jamaican descent on this story
happened in Jamaica
om but I gotta tell you folks
in there's not
there in there's not enough law the only
we're going to save this world
is true love and celebrating
difference and this story is the lack
thereof
it's about the Wayne Jones in on
now the Wayne Jones in arm went to high
school in was teased
because the who he chose to love in his
sexuality and sexual preferences
on or made matters worse about this
whole story is that his father
and look at the model house age 14 arm
but also helped jere helped jeering
neighbors
push the youngster from in from the
rough to make an slobs where he grew up
so
in
this individual in
doing in spot there
the guy who gave birth 10
kicked him out of the house and then
hope the neighbors
jere his son because the who his son
chose to lover of how his son identified
in that make this story gets uniquely
worse from there see you imagine
to Wayne being down on his luck back
against the wind trying to make it
and there's no way to win so
at 8:16 in he decided he was gonna
you know in take on his identity in
you know present as a female and
attend the party a straight party you
sending a street party
the mistake that DuWayne mean that night
in
he decided to tell one of his straight
friends he was attending this party for
the first time in his life any was going
as a woman not clearly this person was
in a friend
and as a result of that om
in to Wayne was beaten
stabbed shop in and ran over with the
car
in because a because he decided to go to
a party
in and be who he really was a woman
he was killed in al makes matters even
worse
as such the situation gets no better and
doing has friends Chloe and Kiki
oMG who live their lives in %uh
squatters house
and Kiki says in her in
in the story that you know should be
cooking in the kitchen so the Wayne are
you hungry and sometimes all sitting on
the whole mattress
she says I miss him sometimes I see him
but down the hall is the wayne's
anti-russian
except for the think window curtains
decorated with roses
with his favorite flowers in to win lost
his life
because of who he chose to be in
when I heard this story in II
I gotta tell you I was taken aback
because I am very proud
in to be %uh Jamaican descent
in and one thing that I always remember
and I grew up in a very to make
community is one thing and one thing
that's making the pride themselves is
the back
at the new the motto of the country is
out of many
one people in when did that motto
become so blurred when the lines become
so blurred
where did the many in
disappear because it doesn't matter who
you are
whether you choose to be a may I will
these be a straight man or a straight
woman
or lesbian woman or a gay man or a
transgendered woman or transgendered
Mandurah bisexual woman or a bisexual
man
it should not matter because out of many
one people in jamaicans
we can do better we can do better
why must another young person have to
die
because of how they choose to identify
why what's one fear for their own life
because of who they choose to love when
will we start to understand
we need to celebrate difference me to it
knowledge
difference in we to put the path we need
to put the whole idea love hatred
and discrimination behind us
why in there should be no more bloodshed
because the who you choose to love now
understand this issue goes far beyond
just in DuWayne because
the former partner the former in
Prime Minister of the country not occur
promise to the former
wouldn't allow so you identified as LGBT
in their cabinet this is the country is
not too far for america there's a lot of
Jamaica to the right here in America you
sure those same type abuse
and same type a values and to them
tonight's
in if they're watching this I wanna call
them
out wanna call them out
those Jamaicans that both those who live
in Jamaica and those that live right
here in America
who think it is okay to hate somebody
because that's who they choose to love
or threaten to kill somebody because of
who they choose to lob
or who they choose to be understand this
one thing to be true
in you
your mother motto of the country says
out of many
one people well dull when does that many
stop
where does that many lives and there is
no end to many
it means a plot the rock all lot
multiple
you can't count them there are
innumerable their differences are
unalterable so stop it stop this ideal
other hitting somebody because the who
they choose to love
this is not your it's not your life if
their life
right it's not your life it is there
life
is their choice to live there life
not yours dictate how they live their
lives or take their life away from them
in it's about celebrating difference
folks
celebrating different so there's any
Jamaican watching and that's the view
that you choose to have
I'm calling you out tonight I'm calling
you out
and i'm saying that you are fraud and a
shame to perpetuate and pledge to the
Jamaican flag
or the Americans I for that matter
understanding that the motto the
country's outta many
one people welcome
now
