Tim Hector Would Love J-Truth

By Makeda Mikael

Tim Hector and J-Truth are cut from the same rebellious cloth, exposed through two different ages, where the language and methodology to deal with repression and oppression of our island people are totally different!

The fact that Tim caused the government forces to use up more teargas in his time than ever before, is a clear indication of the heart of the rebel, and his refusal to stand down, even as ones would have young J-Truth cool out in these parlous times.

These days, words have been so normalized that even the hoity-toity use the Anglo-Saxon word in print juxtaposing the letters but not losing the impact.

Rastafari in our community have already accepted the power of the Anglo-Saxon word to run jumby, and their physical manifestation in the politicians of our times.

Young people are still sensitive enough to be turned off by the hypocrisy of our politics and government, treating our street educated young people and their university learned as if they are idiots.

Making a case for teargassing a conscious protest staged by young women is only done by Ayatollahs in Iran, not in 108 sq ml islands of 100,000 persons; and to continue to hold that it will be done again is the beginning of autocracy.

Young men in particular need space to grow and flex, and autocratic government is not the place for flexing.

Tim is known for challenging Government, communicating with the people and making his objections to bad governance heard loudly by audio and print.

Tim Hector was always current, and the musical and poetic side of him would have been attracted J-Truth, to support this rebel for the people and help grow conscious revolution in the community of Antigua’s young people.

Tim stood by the youth all the time, helping to grow their black consciousness, so all you who want to whitewash the rebel Tim Hector, and to shut up the young rebel J-Truth, STAND DOWN!

  1. Well said. My late father use to tell me communication is only effective if your recipients understand what you are saying. I don’t listen to J-Truth but have children his age and understands that my methods works for my time. The same we want to believe Mandela was a soft spoken leader and forgot he took up guns and fight for the liberation of his people. Caribbean people where is the Rebel in we gan?

    • @ Dave Ray: You did not know the real Tim Hector. Did you really know him at all.You did the right thing by just moving along. I knew Tim,when He lived on Central Street, Villa Area with his Family.Keep up the good work for Antigua J-Truth.

  2. J’Truth
    “Many are called but few are chosen” you are one of the Chosen vessels .
    Evil and wickedness can no longer prevail in Antigua and Barbuda as Gaston Browne and his cabal enjoy life styles of the rich and famous and we the nationals remain poor.
    Thank you for helping to make the wrongs right, you are doing an amazing job.
    Our Son of the soil, so proud of you. Their bias opinions of you, will not dim his light. ” Just Shining Brighter ”
    Congratulations on your award J’ Truth.
    Tim Hector must be watching over you and saying my brother keep up the struggle.

  3. BIG UP J-TRUTH. YOUR’S IS A VOICE IN THE WILDERNESS & WHO NECKS ARE BEING TRAMPLED ON & WHO ARE TEARGASSED & SHOT WITH LEFT OVER BULLETS THAT WERE DESTINED FOR SOUTH AFRICA & THEIR WICKED REGIME OF YESTERYEAR. TIM HECTOR WOULD BE SO PROUD OF YOU, HE’D BE VISITING YOU IN ST PETERS, ON HIS TRIP TO HIS FARM NEARBY. BEAR IN MIND BROTHER. HE WILL BE WATCHING & GUIDING YOU FOR YOUR FUTURE ENDEAVORS. KEEP UP YOUR SO INSPIRING CONTRIBUTION, LOOKING FORWARD TO FOLLOW YOU IN ALL YOUR TIMELY WORKS. YOU BEFORE HYPROCACY. A.D.

  4. Tim hector would hate ameed dunce scunt hole, please stop belittle Tim hector intelligence and reputation, you all talk so high about the disrespectful asshole that throw his 70+ grandmother out the house after his mother dies..
    You don’t know him so stop talking so high of a fucking begging non ambitious fucking cunt.

    • real truth

      since wen ar u dey kay bout tim hector…….after all the ablp government, including gaston and lester and robin and cutie and molwyn has done to him.

      go way

      • And don’t forget UPP and Baldwin Spencer….they cast him out when he was invited to speak in London for St. Lucia….but he decided to speak for his homeland Antigua.
        Tim was about education…and he is responsible for educating more Antiguan than any other Antiguan to date.
        J’truth been rebellious …his choice of language accepted…should not be equated with Tim Hector…his intentions seem to be geared at gaining popularity more than education…
        I have tremendous respect for Mrs Michael…but I don’t think Tim would be an admirer of J’Truth.

    • @Real-Truth, your language, in your comment, is no different with all the indecent words. You’re judging Ameen (JTruth) by his indecent languages but not by his messages. Tim Hector was fighting for the people and country of Antigua and Barbuda good . So, you tell me, “isn’t that what JTruth is fighting for too in an atmosphere that reaches today’s demographic?”

      P.S.: Gaston Browne tongue is no different from JTruth. I know the real Gassy. Since he became a politician, especially the Prime Minister, he would digs down into his vocabulary whenever he think of saying a cuss word during his speech. You never notice he would use a lot of what we call big words where majority of the people would runs to Google or their dictionary for the meaning. Leave JTruth alone!!!!

  5. more than anything, I enjoyed the you tube video posted in the article…..that was moving and riveting, brought back nostalgia.

    thanks Makeda.

    Big up Tim Hector, Big up J Truth

  6. BEGGY BEGGY FOR CASHAPP$
    Baby mama drama BEG BEG and REFUSE TO WORK!
    BEG CASHAPP$ day in and out
    Ameena better stop it!
    BEG BEG BEG FOR A LIVING CASHAPP$
    ALWAYS A BEG CASHAPP$

    • You are calling someone disrespectful, But look at all the nastiness you just let out. Pot don’t call the kettle black. U sound hurt and desperately bad minded. Go take a look in the mirror. Stupesss.
      Spinless p o s

    • @Sad But True, Have you every beg for anything in life?? JTruth is not the only person that uses CashApp$ in his live Facebook shows. His followers who have asked him for these financial apps so they can make contribution towards his Facebook program. I have watch a lot of the Facebook shows and I have seen the CashApp$ and other financial App$ to make contributions.
      Are you jealous of JTruth? If so, why not start your own talk show on Facebook!
      You pass your place. JTruth is self-employ where is a landscaper, and professional Photographer+Videographer.

  7. HOW COULD SOME PEOPLE IN A&B JEALOUS J-TRUTH? PEOPLE GET YOUR OWN F/B PAGES & LEAVE THE GUY ALONE. JEALOUSY IS A BITCH. YOU FOLKS COULDN’T EVEN WALK IN HIS OLD DISCARDED SHOES. STAY UP J-TRUTH.

  8. Real Truth you are the real dunce and hypocrite. Power to you J’Truth they know that you always speak truth to power. Don’t bother with the hypocrites who enjoy the abuse and crumbs from the PM’s table. Dem sick no hell! Red Dead, dead. We voting UPP on Election Day. 💙💙💛💛

  9. I’m very confident that Tim Hector would adore JTRUTH and this is coming from me who is a first cousin of Tim Hector.
    This is just politics.

  10. Mary John is also an outspoken advocate of truth and justice while helping the downtrodden and destitute of society.

  11. Makeda who was a close advisor to Lester Bird, Who LB said he sent to visit Errol Cort to help him releive stress, would know Hector’s thoughts, better than his (Hector’s) own family

  12. Lord have mercy. Looking at these comments a lot of mentally unbalanced people are in Antigua.
    As one person said somewhere, his family spoke. What else is there to say.
    Get a sensible life.

  13. I cant believe. Seemingly intelligent people talk real stupidness sometimes. What happen to ” is not what you say is how you say it”.
    So society is evolving into the lowest form of communication to get a point across now. So the entire country needs to engage in this manner of speech to let other people understand a point. What is this at all. Just base behavior.
    No attempt to raise the bar because you want to win over persons to your way of thinking.
    Be careful what some of you are wishing for. What goes bad at night cant come good a morning.
    There are varying degrees of inciting speech. Different forms. Does anyone remember what happened in the USA last year???? That did not happen in a vacuum.
    To believe that hateful, aggressive, rude and derogatory speech will not breed a society of the same kind is being naive. IJS A word to the wise

  14. Alister Thomas could not even answer the question straight Paul asked him on Voice of the People (VOP) today about the similarity of JTruth and Tim Hector. JTruth style might a little different from Tim Hector but they’re after the same goals for the people of Antigua and Barbuda and the country. Yes, when JTruth started first his show was filled with indecent languages; however, he has seek help and clean up too some extend. The demographic in Tim Hector time are different from those in JTruth today’s. JTruth is reaching all demographic for today especially the younger voting age group between 18 to 35. JTruth is sitting where majority of them sit and speak how they speak. Ameen (JTruth), I am very proud of how far you have come in presenting to your audience. Keep up the good work and we your listeners continue to pray for you as you continue to work and grow on your audience presentation.

    • @Mae. Pure foolishness. So you want the youths to look to or look up to base behavior??
      Indecent language, threats, insults, derogatory comments, personal attacks – all a that is okay with you as long as the message is being delivered to it’s intended target?? Because, lord have mercy, that is what his audience knows.
      Father deliver us cause we know not what we do.
      PS The PM is abrasive and at times uncouth. Have you heard him issuing indecent language or threats 24/7.
      Please give me a break.
      Every one needs to learn to walk a fine line.
      So a society of pure I’ll mannered people is fine?
      Okay . Continue.
      Who dont hear will feel.

  15. ” I can’t believe this : I get you’re point , but what do any of us expect when the ” leadership ” of the country acts and speaks like a hood rat .. JT is no leader , yes he has a following… do you hold the PM to these standards? Let’s not be a hypocrite .
