The Late Professor Rex Nettleford- Celebrating his Legacy

Backyard labrish along with Jamaica, the Diaspora, and people around the world mourn the loss of beloved Professor Rex Nettleford. Here in the backyard we were indeed blessed to have had a conversation with him last September when he visited in support of one of his passions: Benevolent Missions of Atlanta, an organization supporting early childhood education in Jamaica. This week the labrish will celebrate his life and highlight the rich legacy he has left behind. We will be sharing interesting information about some of his many passions and the influence his work had on so many lives.
