			<description><![CDATA[I first met Jan at a Canadian University Students Overseas (CUSO) orientation in London, Ontario at which the Nigerian educator Alfred Opubor,also recently deceased was also a participant. Not only was Jan a genius, he was an excellent curry cook; he was up at 4AM daily to jogg for 2 hours; I later met him in Anguilla where he presented a series of lectures.RIP Jan]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[In one last tribute to Jan Carew, I want to share a poem he wrote in tribute to Martin Carter...I like this poem so well that it could have been written for himself... Jan Carew : Tribute to Martin Carter Requiem for Martin Martin, the exit of death led you down Streets of Eternity, softly like the falling tide that leaves Guyana's foreshore burnished with sunlight jewelled with crabs, curlews, pikers and sea gulls married to the wind, but the tide will rise again in restless rhythms of awakening And those who 'bend down listening to the land' will forever hear you singing, 'I come to you with a particular gladness... I come naked as a stone, or a star...']]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[....really liked the way Jan Carew approach history and his use of the word "Tiano" to describe the indigenous inhabitants of the America's...It was something he said is one of his books that I have that got me interested in going to Belize, in Central America and once I went their part of the old colonial mentality had been broken...I began to see a gradual de-colonialization of my mind and thinking...for over twenty years or more I have tried to get any books I can find anywhere in used book stores by Jan Carew...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[When I saw this article was very happy as I keep saying in all my comments Great people came out of Agricola. It just makes me proud and hope the PPPC and their accolsdes would stop calling the people from Agricola Hooligans. Stop pointing your fingers it is pointing back at you. And pot calling the kettle black.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Greetings. @Edwin S Wilson, Jan Carew isn't being buried there, he was cremated and his remains are to rest in NC with his family - his wife and daughter live there. Uncle Jan (pronounced Yaan) is a brilliant writer with great humanity. He didn't bow down or tow the line with the racial politics that continues to plague us. He remained a fierce Pan Africanist, but was a member of the PPP. He championed indigenous peoples of the world-from South America to North... He studied at prestigious schools throughout the world but was still very approachable/accessible. He was a leading founder/proponent of Britain's Black Power movement. He sat and reasoned with Malcolm X, criticized Russia for being patronizing toward the Third World, advised Kwame Nkrumah. For me he is the most interesting man alive. His spirit lives on...]]></description>
