Talented singers from Marcus Garvey High School performed in front of enthusiastic supporters as the Jamaica National Heritage Trust (JNHT) moved to increase public awareness of the indigenous Taínos and their contribution to the island's heritage.  Taino Village Jamaicans, in general, still hold on to the idea that the Arawaks were the original people in Jamaica. As such, this was a great step by the JNHT to make the public aware of the Tainos and the real history of Jamaica.
