Take seriously how people live, says Anglican Bishop

  • Summary

  • Anglican Bishop of Kingston Reverend Garth Minott envisions a Jamaican society based on respect, love, integrity, and peace.

    He believes respect is at the heart of solving the problem of crime and violence which begins in the home with parents disrespecting children. He says respect means seeing the other person as valuable too.

    “We are coming out of a context of enslavement where Blacks were not seen as people. They have driven that idea of non-personhood in us to the extent that we do not treat everyone with dignity and regard their worth,” he said.

    Bishop Minott underscores the importance of integrity. “We need to begin paying attention to the holistic nature of people - body, mind, and spirit. We have to take seriously how people live, where they live and their quality of life,” Bishop Minott tells Impacting Jamaica host Byron Buckley.
