‘Big Stone’ has no regrets for wearing chains in PNP sketch
Sep 13th, 2023 | Category: GLEANER PREMIUM | 9:31#JamaicaGleaner #Race #PNP #MarkGolding #Politics #BigStone SEPTEMBER 13, 2023: The man who sparked controversy when he was released from chains by People’s National Party (PNP) President Mark Golding during a constituency conference on Sunday is unrepentant about his role in the affair. Claude ‘Big Stone’ Sinclair instead says he is very happy to see that his actions caused the nation’s eyes to open to the mental and psychological chains binding it. He told The Gleaner Tuesday that he was offended to be called “dark-skinned” in the discourse which has arisen since, describing himself instead as a “black man”. He said his actions had nothing to do with colour and that Golding’s race had nothing to do with it.
