Revealing the Transparent: Stephanie Black Unveils the Jamaican World Beyond Tourism
Examining the Third World amid the process of globalism, Black found an intelligent and realistic view in the Jamaican people that is largely absent among the American public. The people who are living under the structural adjustment programs, whose lives are impacted by this everyday, who when they go take a loan out, they know the interest rates are set by an IMF policy, have this clear understanding [of the IMF's function].
Pausing, Black adds, That's what catalyzed the making of this film. Living in a country that was under an IMF program and realizing how little I knew about it, yet I came from the country that held the strongest voting power in the IMF, so where does my responsibility and culpability lie?
fabulous soundtrack by Bob Marley and other reggae artists
