Who are some lesser known important historical figures of Jamaica and what should people know about them?
That's interesting. Who else can you tell me about?
Another important figure is Nanny of the Maroons. She was a leader of the Maroons, a group of escaped slaves who fought against British colonizers in the 18th century. Nanny is celebrated as a symbol of resistance and empowerment within Jamaica's Afro-Caribbean community.
