Lorna Shelton-Beck is originally from Jamaica and the founder of Charleston Carifest in South Carolina, USA. She believes the festival is important because in her US town people frequently associate the Caribbean with Jamaica and Reggae, so every year Charleston Carifest educates people on the various islands of the Caribbean and the vast contribution Caribbean people have made.
Lorna says, “We have to work together as a Caribbean community to get changes in the schools, and we must take on the responsibility to educate the next generation ourselves.”
