Whether you’re on the hill in Telescope or shivering through February in Toronto, let these tiny notes keep your island alive inside you until next 7 February rolls around—and every ordinary day in between.
Go ahead, light up that group chat, tag the diaspora cousin, toast the stranger at the rum shop. Patriotism lives in the sharing. Forward ever, backwards never—happy Independence, and may your next 365 days smell faintly of spice and sound a lot like steelpan.
