On November 24, 2010, University of the West Indies Professor Verene Shepherd spoke out in support of making Caribbean History mandatory in Jamaica. She expressed concern that the value of Caribbean history is unrecognized in most Jamaican schools which leaves many students unappreciative of their heritage and lacking national pride, something she would like to see corrected.
