STUDENTS ACT OUT THEIR HISTORY

CHANNEL 7 BELIZE NEWS -
SJC: Taking The Mystery Out of History posted (April 17, 2015)
"A people without the knowledge of their past, history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots." That's the well-known black consciousness mantra of Marcus Garvey and they were brought into harness and currency today at the St. Johns' College 4th annual Reading Fair.

Probably the most roots revolutionary of the area representatives elected under the PUP banner in 1961 was Jesus Ken of Corozal South, a man who was descended from a leading family of the Santa Cruz Maya of the southeastern Yucatán, the bravos who had fought so bitterly against Mérida and the ladino power structure of the Yucatán.

His presentation came at the right time since SJC is now in its 2nd year of a new history program integrating the teaching of African and Maya history in our curriculum.
