Dear Bahama Mama Community, Since the launch of Bahama Mama in June 2018, things have been going well! I have received a lot of questions from many people saying.. "what about the men...." I was hesitant at first as I wanted to just focus on the strong matriarchs that may not get as much recognition but after some thought, I think it fair to see the other side of the story! So, am getting started on the men! I would love some help from the Bahama Mama community to find incredible men, characters and interesting patriarchs in the whole of the Bahamas. I am looking for: -Men above 65 years of age, from any island of the Bahamas, with an interesting story! Characters, fathers, kind men, humorous men, well known or not known at all All suggestions are valid. Although all men may not be chosen for the final book. If possible could you send me an inbox with the name of the person, the island they live on and a person to contact in order to meet them. Thank you for your help! Pass this message on to your family members! @projectbahamapapa

"Da teacher said don't make no noise.. When you go with God and put your confidence in him, he gonna fix it for you. I gone to sleep and da spirit of God send one man in my sleep, seven signature sharp and flat. I did love a flat, it was a lot easier, but a sharp was a serious ting. I like da flat and he teach me in my sleep ya know? And right now I got it since I was a young girl. I was a musician. I played in church. The man of God give me that. When I woke up I had it all. God give me that. I didn't learn it day by day, God gave me that."

Advice on work: "Get a farm. My son used to have a farm a couple years ago with carrots and ting... if you have corn, sweet potato, you have your watermelon, your kids can't go hungry. You don't need to worry about going to the people shop....everybody in the community used to make a vegetable farm, we couldn't give away tomatoes, everybody had their own."
