How much does this "committee" get paid?

Yes lets get rid of everything related to the colonial period. Change the names of most settlements and islands, and tear down the buildings. In fact taken to its end, seeing as nearly every person born in Bahamas (black and white) is because of the Colonial period, then they too must be gotten rid of. Their parents, or their parents parents would never had met if they had never come to The Bahamas, by whatever way. I am being facetious, but the idea proposed is basically saying get rid of a major part of this nations history and only leave it with the last 50 years, which is ludicrous.

I couldn't agree more. Once you go down this road it will never end.
We should just stick to teaching history rather than trying to hide/remove all traces of it.

Some folks have nothing to do how about feeding the poor

Must be something in the water they're drinking. Look, see how woke we is! We gern change we history by removing some of our historical landmarks and renaming some buildings.
Next, they'll want to tear down all our forts and the Queens Staircase as alla dem was built during dem shameful colonial years of occupation.
With all of the myriad of real social issues plaguing our country we still have these zealots with their heads up their asses pushing their newly woke agendas while conveniently forgetting that it was colonialism that built this country.

This woke movement will be the end of humanity. Soon, we won't be able to utter the words black or white when referring to a born human.

The learned chair ought to change her last names. They will never name a road or building after her or even give her a living legend award.

She is eminently qualified for a Legend in Her Own Mind award though!

Keep the name, keep our history and give her ten shillomgs and sixpence to make her happy.

Why do they even call psychologists Doctors as they are useless in society and this proves it!!
Go get a real degree so you can make sense of all this bs woke sh-t.. We have people that are hungry go feed and help them if you care..

Keep in mind that all these historical figures referred to in this article were, as everyone is, products of their times. All the wishing, hoping and commenting cannot change history. Get over it.

Try and try again, but history cannot be erased.

It cannot be erased, but don't you think it can be correctly stated?

Yes , let us get rid of all the sir titles and all other British titles. Let's see how all the politicians and hundreds of bahamians knighted each year take that. Stop talking foolishness. Wr are whom we are. Wr are Bahamian. It is our roots and culture. Dis we tings and whom we are. You are always talking about culture and what makes us different. Here we go. This makes us whom we are. The good, the bad, and the ugly makes us whom we are. In life you have good days and bad days. Both days make us complete. We hace good history and bad history. Both make us whom we are. Get a freaking life!!!

Some one needs to send Niambi a replica statue of crippled Christopher Columbus as a Christmas gift from the Bahamian people.

It is good for Bahamians to have these discussions and continue to teach all aspects of their history as is done.

So why must this PM continue to speak such nonsensical gobbledygook?
The name within the imperial legacy has changed to mean a return to that ‘grand tradition’ of what tourism used to mean, luxurious travel, adventure, etc?
That’s how he acknowledges the irony of this moment?
If that’s how he wants to play then why doesn’t his gov’t work towards another ‘old tradition’ of tourism in the Bahamas?
Crack down on corruption in the RBPF in order to bring about a safer environment that Bahamians and tourists once enjoyed.

I too am trying to figure out what in the world Davis was trying to say in that remark. It reeks of ignorance and utter nonsense, and trying to suck up to the owners.

As this building and this business is owned by either nationals, or the government , of the Peoples Republic of China, can using such a British Empire name be described as "cultural approbation" ? Just asking.

How can a Chinese owned hotel continue to use a name such as "British Colonial", when it's imperial masters in China erased Hong Kong from its British traditions as soon as the land lease was up?

Bahamians are really strange when it comes to holding on to European ties ...... Like the OECD financial domination and Westminster political system etc.

Freeing ourselves from mental slavery begins with electing leaders who can create a true true Bahamian VISION for the way forward beyond this hollow Jubilee year.
