Robeson Remembered

The US Embassy in Kingston, Jamaica has named it`s Information Resource Centre (I think that`s what the rest of us call a `library` !) for Paul Robeson after running an essay competition for the island`s school students during 2011.

Winning entrant Kathy Smith focussed on Paul Robeson in her essay The Soul of a Continent. Ms Smith has now left school and is a first year law student at the University of the West Indies.
