Welcome to Call to Action

Welcome to The Gleaner’s Call to Action blog.

The Gleaner will be publishing a series of front page editorials covering critical issues running from this Sunday, December 6 until Wednesday, December 9 and we want to hear from you!

Jamaicans have for decades complained about the state of our country – its poor economic performance, its poverty, its poor management, its  crime,  its violence.  Many people have become fed-up with the seeming inaction on the part of those we elect and the bureaucracy we pay to put things right.

Things cannot continue as they are certainly not in these exceptional times. In a series of four editorials The Gleaner is calling Jamaicans to action, to engage in a debate on the kind of country we want to live in and to hold to account those who have abrogated their responsibility to manage and to insist on a radical overhaul in the way we conduct our affairs. For it can’t continue this way.

Follow the editorials and let us start the discussion.
