Happy New Year to our Readers!
On January 11, we launched our Cultural Ambassadors Series commemorating Caribbean stalwarts who transitioned recently at home and in the diaspora.
We began with a feature on The Mighty Bomber by Caldwell Taylor, “AH BLASTED GRENADIAN TOO! (Celebrating Bomber’s 84th Birthday Anniversary,”) first published on these pages, January 30, 2012. And on January 15, we continued with Ken Jaikaransingh’s feature, “A Measure of the Man: Sir Sidney Poitier, 1927-2022.” Today we continue with “Remembering Clifton Ryan: The Mighty Bomber,” by Dr. David Brizan
Over the upcoming weeks, writers reflect on the immense impact of transformative artists. In addition, Big Drum Nation will offer previously published and unpublished works reflecting on the life and times of these unforgettable thought shapers.
