Halls of Learning's robotics project in Jones Town provided the inspiration for Robotics Stimul-I. Struck by the people and images encountered through our work, we share with you a photo essay and inspired poetry both titled,Inside Jamaica:Each day we pass these facesLiving in their confined spacesSometimes surrounded by waste Most of them growing with the taste Of sufferation and despair And then add violence, gunshots ring through the air But still hardworking and full of pride So even in their eyes, they cannot hide The feigning of hope And so, they cope Some waiting and singing "betta mus come" Some sacrificing and plodding for the better, to come Some wishing for the wingsof a dove Most surviving on the fumes of love Look inside Jamaica and see the crying need It might not be your neighbour,but you should take heed

More than likely less than a third of Jamaicans are Ashante. The other two major tribes would be the Igbo and the Yoruba in Nigeria.

No answer? Do you know what the typical average wage per week of a Jamaican citizen is? I do.

when my dad was working there, he made about $2,000,000 jamaican a year. i'm not sure what he got weekly. but that's what he was making back in the 90's. the dollar has deteriorated even more now, so it's probably more now.

I didn't say there wasn't a middle class, I said virtually. What is the average wage a week there?
