We want justice: Linguistic discrimination in Jamaica's public formal domains and the people's cry for justice
Description
The proverbial cry of "we want justice" is usually echoed during demonstrations when citizens bemoan some instance of injustice usually committed by law enforcement officers. The demonstrators are often seen with placards usually written in Jamaican Creole (JC). Similarly, Jamaicans have been crying out for language justice for a number of years.
