The Jamaica Cultural Development Commission has earmarked the month of September to celebrate the life and work of Hon Dr Louise Bennett-Coverley OJ, OM.
.
The amazing Miss Lou was born on September 7, 1919. She was a Jamaican poet and activist for the Jamaican language and is described as Jamaica’s leading comedian. Miss Lou has been lauded as the only poet who has really hit the truth about her society through its own language. She has managed to capture Jamaican thoughts, feelings and lifestyle through her poems in the vernacular. This has been done through masterful taste in use of the dialect which is acceptable to and appreciated by all in Jamaica and the Diaspora.
.
.
In September, Jamaica Cultural Development Commission (JCDC) staged a series of activities across the island. St. James hosted ‘MoBay Ring Ding’ as part of the celebrations.

‘MoBay Ring Ding’ is a mini concert with a mixture of poems and storytelling. This year the National Exhibition
