Today is National Heroes Day, a Jamaican public holiday, which is dedicated to the memory of Jamaica’s seven national heroes. On this day, six heroes and one heroine are remembered for their heroic deeds that led to greater freedom and social betterment for their homeland.
As a nation, Jamaica first celebrated National Heroes Day on October 20, 1969, in honour of the heroic Jamaicans who, through pride and resilience, sacrificed their blood, sweat, tears, and lives to ensure that all Jamaicans today enjoy political independence, and freedom to strive for our economic independence.
