Kumina is one of Jamaica's most powerful and least understood African-derived traditions — a religion, a music form, and a way of speaking to the ancestors that has survived nearly 200 years. In this video, we trace Kumina's true origin story, break down the music and movement behind the ceremony, and take you inside the annual Rebirthday ceremony held in Fairy Hill, Portland — an all-night ritual of drumming, dance, and ancestral connection that most Jamaicans have never witnessed firsthand.
Unlike many Afro-Jamaican traditions, Kumina was not brought to Jamaica through slavery. It arrived after emancipation, carried by free Kongo people from Central Africa who came to Jamaica as indentured laborers in the 1840s–1860s. What they brought with them — the drumming, the language, the belief system — remains almost entirely intact today, still practiced in communities across St. Thomas, Portland, St. Mary, and St. Catherine.
In this video you'll learn:
🥁 The real origin of Kumina and its connection to the Kongo Kingdom
🥁 How the bandu and playing kyas drums carry Kumina's rhythm and history
🥁 Why one of Kumina's drums was disguised as a rum cask
🥁 What "myal" possession means within the ceremony
🥁 What happens during the Rebirthday ceremony in Fairy Hill, Portland
🥁 How Kumina shaped Nyabinghi drumming and modern reggae and dancehall

One Love Jamaica

Britain didn't go to war over territory, ideology, or assassination. It went to war because China refused to buy drugs. In this video, we uncover the full story of how the British Empire engineered a narcotics pipeline from the poppy fields of Bengal to the harbors of Canton, addicted millions of Chinese citizens to opium, and then launched two devastating wars when China tried to shut the trade down. The result? Unequal treaties, the seizure of Hong Kong, the burning of the Summer Palace, and the beginning of what China still calls its Century of Humiliation — a wound that shaped the modern world and still echoes in geopolitics today.

We cover the East India Company's calculated monopoly on opium production, the chronic British trade deficit that started it all, Commissioner Lin Zexu's dramatic destruction of 20,000 chests of opium, the military campaigns that shattered the Qing Dynasty, the Treaty of Nanking and the cession of Hong Kong, the Second Opium War and the destruction of the Yuanmingyuan, the 99-year lease of the New Territories, Margaret Thatcher's negotiations with Deng Xiaoping, and the 1997 handover that marked the symbolic end of the British Empire.

This is the story of what happens when profit overrides sovereignty, and when the language of free trade is used to justify the most unfree of outcomes.
