QUESTION #1: What's your Nationality?
QUESTION #2: What color or shapes are in your Flag?
QUESTION #3: What do they Mean?
DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER?
If you know Nothing about your culture, it's useless.
It's not enough to say that you are Jamaican, Trinidadian, Haitian, etc...
REAL example:
Me: Where are you from?
Person: "I'm from JAMAICAAAAAA!"
Me: "Whats the capital?"
Person: "um....Port au Prince?"
Me: "That's Haiti."
Not knowing SIMPLE stuff like that makes you about as Jamaican as this guy...
...Or...
CALL MEH NOW!!!
Your history is a part of you, It is your HERITAGE and you should think it wise to learn something about it.
What do you know about where you come from?
New Yorkers come out in MASSES for the West Indian Parade, but a good percent don't know anything about the places of the flags you wave on Labor Day.
Everyone who knows me, knows my about my INTENSE love affair with My Nationality and its Culture
I'm from a Sweet Little Caribbean Island Called Barbados
this is my flag, the blue represents the sky and the sea, the gold is for the sand of the beaches and the symbol in the middle is a broken trident (NOT A PITCHFORK!) and it symbolizes breaking free from England's rule.

Before you claim you are from somewhere, know something! BE PROUD & DO SO WITH SOME KNOWLEDGE, so that this year when you are
"JUMPIN' UP BEHIND DE TRUCK, CHIPPIN' DOWN DE ROAD, WAVIN' YUH FLAG, PELTING YUH WAIST, WHINNIN' DOWN, WUKKIN UP, or just LIMING..."
...you will be doing so with respect for your heritage.
