Very interesting documentary, shrimps (swimps) oddly enough I didn't hear anyone talk about sustainability (set size limits) or setting up their own co-operative instead of waiting on the government. Also I suspect once the government comes in, they may help but they are/will going to dictate things.
Seeing people that I know in this video is crazy!! Amazing video. My mother was a shrimp vendor as well. Thanks for highlighting Middle Quarter's! This warms my heart.... seeing guys like Solomon and Billy that are my age mates and Vinceroy and Sentavine. Many other elders in the community who have been vendors since I was a child in Middle Quarters. I cannot say how much it warms my heart to see so many more people that I grew up with or knowing. Seeing Shrimpfest as well is ❤️ so 👏🏽 proud of this little community and the resilience of the people.
More Love for the shrimp community of Middle quarters. R.I.P ms Edna panton, ms vira, Early bird a fisherman) and a few other elders that's no longer around...
Anytime people ask government for help them take over. Community people should come together and unite and build infrastructure and free themselves from government control. "Community, Come unite together we can make it. "
@@jshaw4757 Hi J Shaw thank you for your question/concern. The villagers know what the problem is and I also believe that they have a solution to the problem. However, they lack the resources and support to mobilize the change they seek within the shrimp village, and this is where we invite investors to come on board to help make the village a viable tourism hub. The possibilities for growth and advancement within the village are endless.
Respect to all!! Love is all I have for people who does not wait. Just a little additional help, and the people can turn this community in a greater one that it already is. Government maybe can teach them how to farm fish in a pond or something maybe. Or even can help to ship it out,because everyone want a peace of a shrimp,from shrimp country.
From mi leave Jamaica mi nuh eat shrimp. No matter how much mi wife dem buy shrimp from the fast food places here in America mi never even intrigued fi try it. Something different bout the shrimp in a di quarters deh.
They say the older fisherman or drying out and the younger men in middle quarters don't want to doit but do these young men know that they can make a living doing this fine some young men that like it and train them to fish for it and about the rest room a few of the vendors can put a bath together and keep it clean
I have noticed the new shrimp has decimated the native species are they any breeding program in place to increase the native species population are they going extinct
@@general8109 Ephesians 6:5-8 Paul states, “Slaves, be obedient to your human masters with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as to Christ” which is Paul instructing slaves to obey their master. Similar statements regarding obedient slaves can be found in Colossians 3:22-24, 1 Timothy 6:1-2, and Titus 2:9-10.
Too many salt on those shrimps, use less salt with pimento leaf, hot pepper chiney thyme, garlic, scallion, etc.. just natural God given seasonings for even the shrimps are made by God
I will never take this community for granted. You have provided a service to us returning citizens that are unmatched.
I have a lot of respect for the hardworking country people....much, much, respect. I hope to visit this community one day.

Never been but I will be going when I go home. I love this video
Awesome. We look forward to seeing you. Happy that you love this video.
Too much salt
BE CAREFUL HOW YOU ASK FOR GOVERNMENT'S INTERVENTION. USUALLY WHEN THAT HAPPENS THE SMALL PEOPLE GET SHUT OUT.
I was thinking the same thing. How could the community get a proper restroom set up in the area? When I travel, a decent, clean restroom is crucial.
Look at Faith...may your soul rest in peace
Faith passed ..RIP
I like them wearing uniform. It presents a clean sanitary atmosphere.
Jamaica is so lush and beautiful
Yet so poor. Make it make sense
Documenting my history...Father was a shrimp trapper.

My first introduction to shrimp at 6 and never stop loving eating..there 🦐...better than all the rest.
This is good to see hope they create space like border
A bathroom should be the first thing to be built. People need bathroom to use and also to wash hands especially for the people cooking swimps.
Big up my community.
Thank you 💥💥💥💥💥 Excellent
Thank you
Nice!
Thanks!
Blessings St.Bess🇯🇲🫡
Hard working people

Shrimps are not the same anymore too much salt and no seasoning why?
Mike the only one mi know here in this documentary 😂👍🏼
I have noticed the new shrimp has decimated the native species are they any breeding program in place to increase the native species population are they going extinct
Looking from outside the West indies... The Jamaican government and infrastructure is lacking unfortunately.
I use to buy shrimp in middle quarters…..back then it was nice not them salt uh fuck uh can hardly eat 2
Next time you visit let me know so I can have someone prepare it for you how you like it. Not all of them are salty.
Don't want to burst your bubble but the Bible teaches that we should not eat anything in a shell..lobster, shrimp, crabs, conch etc
The Bible promotes slavery too. Bubble intact.
@@santacruzman explain 'promotes slavery' please
Read your Bible. Then you can explain it. Or . . . google 'slavery in the bible.??'
