I have been spending my nights reviewing the legal frameworks that govern our land because we cannot afford to let our inheritance slip away any longer. While the silence from the government remains deafening I am encouraged by the private messages from so many of you who know exactly what is at stake for our future.

Seeing this level of backing proves that my neighbors feel the same heavy weight of watching our islands' wealth slip away. This momentum confirms that we are finally ready to demand what belongs to the people of this country.

We owe this stance to our future generations, as we implore the government of The Bahamas to give what is rightful to the people of The Bahamas, by ceasing the need for foreign investors to claim rights to our aragonite.
It's about time we all (Indigenous Bahamians) benefit from our Natural Resources!
Time to take a stand! Sir Lynden said if we’re not prepared to fight for our country then we don’t deserve it. When I die, I need to know that my children will be ok!
The government is there to work for the people, but it seems to me that they've been filling there pockets or someone's pocket. Please let's get to the bottom of this.
Would love to learn more about this; on the surface sounds like it’s truly time for our nation’s Natural Resources to be guarded and managed.
