Saison 2 · Épisode 10

dimanche 12 octobre 2025 • Durée 01:01:19

Barbados’ future depends on how well our education system prepares students for the realities of the workforce. In this episode of Jus’ Ah Conversation, we take a deep dive into how technical and vocational education (TVET) can help bridge the gap between classrooms and careers.

🔹 Erika Watson, Programme Manager at the Ministry of Labour, Social Security & Third Sector
🔹 Shanika A. Best, Employment Relations Advisor at the Barbados Employers’ Confederation
🔹 Dario Walcott, workforce development and certification specialist

Together, they unpack the skills mismatch between training and employment, explore the role of apprenticeships and private-sector partnerships, and discuss what must change to make technical and vocational careers more attractive to Barbados’ next generation.

🎙️ Are we preparing students for real opportunities, or are we leaving them behind in the classroom?

As Barbados marks the Season of Emancipation, this episode of Jus’ Ah Conversation brings the conversation full circle — from colonial history to contemporary calls for justice.

We explore the Caribbean’s ongoing push for reparations from former colonial powers, asking what reparations truly mean in today’s world. Is it about money? Apologies? Institutional reform?

🎙️ Featuring:

Ambassador David Comissiong – Barbados’ Ambassador to CARICOM and a key voice in the regional reparations movement
Trevor Prescod – Cultural advocate, parliamentarian, and longtime reparations campaigner
Rodney Grant – Community leader and creative activist

What form justice could realistically take
The intersections between history, power, and lived experience
How the Caribbean can shape the global reparations conversation

Saison 2 · Épisode 4

dimanche 20 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:14:59

Once a celebration of the end of the sugar cane harvest and a reflection of Barbadian identity, Crop Over has evolved into a massive commercial spectacle filled with fetes, celebrities, and corporate sponsorships. But has something been lost along the way?

In this episode of Just Ah Conversation, Aisha and Shayla are joined by:

Patrick “Salt” Bellamy, a voice of social commentary in soca and on radio,
Dane Marshall, seasoned promoter and event planner,
and Ashanti Trotman, cultural advocate and Landship Admiral,

Together, they tackle tough questions:

Are we still honouring the festival's roots?
Has the voice of the people been drowned out by big money and big stages?
Can tradition and commercial success coexist?

It’s an eye-opening discussion on culture, identity, and what it truly means to celebrate “we culture.”

Breaking Barriers: The Reality of Special Education in Our Schools

Saison 2 · Épisode 3

dimanche 6 juillet 2025 • Durée 57:03

In Barbados, the promise of education for all doesn’t always match the lived reality—especially for students with learning differences. In this powerful episode of Jus’ Ah Conversation, we take a hard look at the state of special education on the island. Are we truly supporting our most vulnerable learners, or are too many falling through the cracks?

Hosts Mikul Elcock and Aisha Reid sit down with guests who bring both professional and personal experience to the table—educators, advocates, and parents who’ve had to fight for resources, recognition, and respect within a system that often isn’t built to accommodate difference.

🗣️ Guests:
Tania Belgrave
Asha Alleyne-Renwick
Akio Nurse

We explore:

The gaps in policy, infrastructure, and training
The stigma and misunderstanding that still surrounds special education
The emotional and financial toll on families
What inclusive education could look like if we committed to change

This isn’t just a conversation about the classroom—it’s about justice, dignity, and the future of our children. If we say we believe in equity, it’s time to act like it.
