How dare you, Ms Walcott?

Dear Editor,

The letter in the Jamaica Observer dated Wednesday, October 1, 2014 titled 'Ja's hypocrisy in the Mario Deane case', is evidence that ignorance is still rampant in Jamaica.

For the writer to even suggest that the outcry for justice for Deane had anything to do with the colour of his skin or even the fact that he had a job is ignorance at its very best.

As one of the many people who gave a voice in seeking justice for Mario Deane, I am asking Miss Walcott what she has done in order to make a change, rather than dare to be critical of those who did.

Those who raised their voice in unison asking for justice for Deane did so because they were simply tired of the injustice being meted out to our fellow citizens by those who have sworn to serve and protect. No one gave a thought to his skin colour or the fact that he had a job.

I would suggest to Miss Walcott that instead of sitting in her little corner and being critical of those who gave a voice to cause change, that she gets up and become the change she wishes to see.
