The ability to speak truthfully about our experiences is the ultimate agency of our liberation. This documentary represents a powerful moment in that process. More power to mi sista! Judgements are irrelevant… when the Truth sets us free- we are free indeed.
This production was absolutely eye-opening and top tier! I think Mrs. Manley-Duncan has not been recognized for her contribution to the development of Jamaica in terms of access to education and upward mobility of the underclass. This production team should be proud of a work well done.
Still waiting for them to identify the changes Beverley cheating disrespectful Duncan brought to Jamaica and how we are benefiting from it today. Manley not here today to defend his position from her lies. He was the brain behind the changes he made. Nothing to do with her and that backstabbing traitor Duncan.
She is recognized for her cheating skills and obviously she has no sense of pride to be proud of being a damn cheater with her husband at the time friend.
As a Trinidadian, I must say that I was not knowledgeable about the history of other islands. This interview series has been very educational and I thank Ms.Manley Duncan for her honesty and her information. I stumbled on this series and am very grateful for it. Thanks to everyone who participated in making this production possible.❤️🙏🏽. Forgot to mention that I migrated to the US at age 10 to an environment where I usually was the only WI child. No opportunity to mingle with other Caribbeans.
@@eileenwatt8283 you people should stop saying “don’t judge”. Is it ok to be dishonest? A lie is a lie, there’s nothing like white lies or black lies, so stop the “don’t judge” nonsense.
I had no idea she was such a cool person as a child growing up I think she was too pretty to be in politics married to a politician She was and still an inspiration for all woman, just be yourself!
I stumbled across this docu-series unintentionally and I'm grateful I did. Hats off to the entire production team and The Honourable Beverly Manley Duncan - you are all an inspiration across the generations. Thank you
Bad gyal in streets, house, educated and uneducated. Same work different levels... Saying a woman shouldn't feel guilty about being unfaithful is spreading a Jezebel spirit...
I have NEVER EVER made a comment on UA-cam but I’ve been so inspired by this video clip. I appreciate Mrs. Manley-Duncan’s very candid, non-hypocritical approach to the interview. I believe the ultimate measure of success on this earth is to discover our true selves, and then use this discovery to make this world and the lives of others a better place. Bravo!!!
Salacious... scandalous...delicious. So raw. I can't get enough of this series. What a life lived!! What a pioneer!! Thank you Ms. Beverly for being a voice for women like my mom.
Clear information, well articulated, History, gripping, open, honest, most importantly Mrs Manley/Duncan is alive to tell is the story. What a refreshing difference. She tells us. Exceedingly WELL DONE👌🏿🇹🇹💐
OMG, wow, there are simply no words! First of all, commendations to the entire production team, excellent docuseries. A very courageous Beverley Anderson Manley Duncan telling her truth as she recalls. Those of us who lived through the '70s until now, are left with a lot of emotions and a lot to reflect on! As we continue to celebrate Jamaica's Diamond jubilee, it's a privilege to look back and remember the journey! Thank you Beverley for taking us down memory lane, and quite a bit of revelations!
The only thing I've learned from this documentary is that Jamaicans really don't have any moral compass this big woman should be ashamed of herself instead she seems to be celebrated
I didn't know this woman before but I was so impressed with her in this interview that I am now a new fan and admirer. Such brilliance and wisdom displayed.
Excellent docu series. Thank you to the Powe siblings for giving us a timely wake up and reminder. The question of the hour really asks me to come home and fight alongside my people. "Where we go 1 we go all".. style. A kind of do or die because it really has come down to this on every land mass globally. Sovereignty and patriotism need to be refueled with good old time values that really did us no wrong. It is why Jamaica has made a name on the world stage. Jamaicans just need to be Jamaicans to spark a fire of joy and happiness wherever they go. That comes from elders/ancestors who taught us resilience in the face of any hardship; survival in the face of war; chill vibes in the face of adversity. Jamaica is going thru the dark night of the soul and I am sure that we will pull through. How? Good question. If we look to the music of Bob, we will see that the natural mystics ( us Jamaicans ) flow and adapt. We also see that destruction is necessary. The great reset is a time of destruction, chaos and rebirth. The snake eating its tail; the Ouroubos; the cycle of birth, death and rebirth. We are in it to win it. Eyes open, no fear, be safe everyone.Much love
What a phenomenal woman yet again she left me smiling. So down to earth, raw, authentic with her truth. I came away feeling bless to have heard her story. She was open and had a lot of humour in her delivery. You could not helped but warm to her. She comes across as a woman who lived her life the best way she could and had a fulfilling life. Yes her life was not perfect but she presents as happy with no major regrets. She was able to do a lot in her time but she has not seen much major shift presently, in the life of the people she spent the most of her life looking out for. Regardless she stood up for others and worked to bring about change for women. She was and is a forced to be reckoned with. She is not your typical Jamaican woman who at her age would be trying to hide the not so good things of her life. She spoke her truth and that’s all you can do. She was unapologetically herself witty, without any heirs and graces. Very insightful. Last but not lease she is ageing well like fine wine such beauty.
Am sorry, but Bev is no damn force to be reckoned with. Those messy infidelity is nothing to be gracious about. Especially when you become a public figure. To much is given, much is expected. We need to hold the people who lead to high standards as the decisions they make can make or break. How can we have a prime minister cheating on his wife and his wife in return cheating on him, especially with someone in his own cabinet, and talk about she's a force to be reckoned with? That's madness. Now i know why Jam is struggling so much and have not shown any sign of recovery. Bad leaders from the start..
@@ripqueenelizabeth8617Oh so when someone is a public figure they fall outside the realm of being human. Bev showed that she was human and had substance. She was not one of those typical “fool fool”Jamaican woman who in those days would sit powerless and let their husband walk over them. She did what pleases her and what made her happy. She lived her truth and her best life. Had she not, she would now be looking broken and beaten down. You can see she lived her life well. How many 80 year old women in Jamaica looks well like her. A part of that is the fact that she did not sit and subscribe to the traditional patriarchal nonsense that she would have come up against. Whilst infidelity can be and often is devastating it has been around since the start of human existence so she would not be the first and the last to have had an affair. I bet if she had been a man admitting that he had affairs whilst being married no one would bat an eye lid. However as she is a woman she is seen in a different light. What an adult chooses to do in the confines of their bedroom has nothing to do with the quality of work that they are able to produce. What some people need to understand is that the work title or office that a person holds does not stop them from being human. A job title/position doesn’t make you exempt from the reality of life. So whilst her life was not the ideal that you would have expected she lived her life the way she wanted and not sat back like some poor thing feeling sorry for herself. I say kudos to her for being who she wanted to be and having the guts to do so amidst the noise. As a result look how happy she looks. Does it look like she is bothered about you and others hypocrisy? I hardly think so. He/She who is without sin cast the first stone!
This is beautiful and well put together. Beverly has such a brilliant mind and is a great communicator. This documentary capture her at the right moment when she can speak candidly and honestly about her life story. This will make an impact now and for many years to come. Thank you guys for doing this. Love it!!
What can I say, although I don't share the ideas of 'cheating' in relationships, she speaks her truth. Michael did his dirt in the past too but that doesn't make it ok. He really wanted his family. I wished they would've stuck it out together.
She did not stick with him we hen things go bad with him she was an opertunist she leave him for a close man to him who was also a married man she think we was going to take over the party but they did not want him in there remember they use to say he was a communist Dk Duncan was one who cause Mr Manley to loose so bad in1980 see Michael win back 1989 she see that Duncan could not take over the party she is not somebody I would look up too she nd his wife was also friends she bad from long time when power shift she shift
@@faygayle9505 I'll never disagree with you based on what went down, now that she's putting it out there.... I'm sure Manley was hurt by it, especially since he was not young anymore and might have felt that he finally got it right.... As I said he did his dirt, but I still feel bad for him, and now her, as I'm sure she realized that was a huge decision, not mistake she made. Again she has to live with it, not me....never want to be in those shoes. A very smart, articulate and educated woman though.
That would .be a good example if you want to run the street by cheating file for a divorce can you imagine the pain and agony you put that man through what if the shoe was on the other foot what if the man get up in the middle of the night and say he was leaving with another woman I guess that would .be a whole different ball game viewers you would want to put that in the archives honest
@@peterdaley3351 you are right, but I think because we rarely hear women admit to cheating publicly.....they are more discreet, men get more flack for it. Not sure what the stats are now on the % of each gender, but will say that men seem to run the streets more......the number of children born outside of marriages and common law relationships fathered by these men speaks volumes.
I am from Barbados and studied political science which entailed some elements of Jamaica's political history. Watching such an informative documentary featuring Mrs. Beverly Manley-Duncan describing Jamaica's political climate, her life and contribution was absolutely amazing. Wonderful documentary, looking forward for more productions like these to come.
I guess cheating has become a wonderful thing I guess no one respect their commitment. Any more two wort cannot make right why make a secrik vow if you can not honour it this is not a one sided coin we have a lot of cold hearted people in our modern society
If a man spoke like this the women would bash him for being unfaithful and some derogatory names.. but people are saying she's bold , strong and speaking her truth.... hypocritical society!!
I understand your point, I am the child of a similar situation, however as I have gotten older, I can say every one was an adult Grace could have left DK, and she didn't make any promises to Grace. Please don't come for me on here. I have held your position for years until I got older, and understood that we all make choices
What I get from all of this is that they were both inlove with each other just that they found themselves with different people and just was waiting for an opportunity to be together
Brutally honest and unfiltered...speaking her truth. Who will take up the baton left by Jamaicans like Michael Manley, D.K Duncan and especially Lady Beverley? From age 10 as a Boy Scout up to when I left Jamaica in 1995 to pursue an opportunity to attend University,I knew what it meant to serve your community and country. I thank Beverley for her service to Jamaica 🇯🇲. Walk good and best wishes for a longer,healthy and happy life.
You appear to be a privileged young boy who knows nothing. I lived it. Look at the state of Jamaica and its people. Anyone with a baton must be worthy and there has never been one and never will be one until that glorious day. I do NOT think that there has ever been and is anyone on this planet who can protect or defend our people until the appointed time!
@@jahmehkanhorn1063 you have to watch the previous videos as there are more than one parts in order to get a full understanding of her role as the "First Lady" etc. She was the founder of the PNP Women's movement and influenced many policies with women and children , including the Jamaica House Basic school.
@@jahmehkanhorn1063 according to people who are older than I, she is the reason that Jamaican women have maternity leave while to this day the great America doesn't have that. Just one example
@@keishachambers1318 exactly! Thank God fi maternity leave thank God for Beverly. Because I have friends who lose their jobs few years ago in Florida over having a child.
I only recently happened to find this series. Oh to reach the stage in life where you can be totally transparent, about who, and what you are. I really like this lady, I find her persona truly inspiring, she is honest. The noblest and greatest of all virtues.
Well done !! Excellent documentation. I was hooked . I learned so much . Thank you Beverly for your honesty .Michael Manley is my favorite Prime Minister up to now . What an impressive man !!! A long journey Beverly , you survived , so now take care of you .
You are an intriguing, intelligent lady! Thanks so much for your honesty and insight. I am loving this docuseries so much, the history, the politics, the cultral evolution and the juicy details! 😊😊🤗
One thing I learned by getting older is not to judge others because I, too, have done things I wish I could undo. I believe Mrs. Manley-Duncan and appreciate her honesty. One thing I know as a Jamaican is that we are secretive, and the truth is something that we hide. No matter how adverse the condition, we choose to suffer in silence; at least, those people from my era did that. Her approach to marriage isn't typical of Jamaican women of the 60s and before. This strong, intellectual woman inspires me to walk into my truth, even if it means walking alone. Thanks for all you did and are doing for my beautiful isle. May Jamaica rise above her struggles. Peace.
I stumbled across your documentary and was hooked as I watched all three and was wondering when is part 4 and asked the question and someone replied to say today so I clicked on the notification bell so I won't miss it.This woman is an icon - she's phenomenal and admire her so much.Im from the UK and heard of her being Michael Manley wife but never delved any further into her so thank you.She is so glamorous - I want to age gracefully like her although she does not look 80 -she look my age 67.She's so honest admitting she was naughty and rightly so she should not feel ashamed- men have affair all the time and Manley was doing his thing too!
I searched for this final segment of the series, was somewhat disappointed when I could not locate it. I'm so happy that it is now released. I remembered clearly Beverly Anderson on JBC radio and when Michael burst on the political scene. I was very young at the time and was really pulled to his ideology. I was annoyed at people who criticized his choice of Beverly Anderson. I liked that she was a darker shade and Jamaica was being taken into a new era of having a dark skinned woman as First Lady of the country. Things were changing!!! The 70s through the 80's were definitely challenging times - so much misunderstanding, and undermining. I wonder where Jamaica would have been today had Michael won the 1980 election. I love Beverly's honesty in sharing her narrative, she was willing to risk all for DK (ie his philosophy) but he was not willing to do the same for her. ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I felt the same way. Prime Minister Michael Manley paved the way for darker skin women and people in general. I remember when he made educational opportunities for black children too bad I was one year past that opportunity but it gave me joy to see children who couldn't attend certain school in Jamaica could for the first time could now attend. May he rest in peace ✌️ when he lost the election that's when his wife should stand by his side as she said "where though go I shall go" I like that she was or maybe still an advocate for women
Amazing documentary...Beverley is so phenomenal and refreshingly honest!! When you are crusader for the uplifting of others it is easy to look back and feel worthless bc it's an endless journey, the more you uncover is the more that needs to be uncovered. You just have to know that you did your best and, at some level, you made a difference---which they all did!
Wow! Blown away by this series...a woman of poise, intelligence and humanity at the same time reflective and honest about her flaws. This story would make an amazing film! It needs to be told!
Wow, wow wow. Thank you Mrs Beverley Anderson Manley Duncan for this brave inside scoop. You are a living legend. There is hope for Jamaica. We will rise. Your work will not be in vain. Production team, you ought to be proud of this amazing piece of journalism. Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉
This has been an absolutely FANTASTIC documentary. Beverley I salute you and your honesty. Just being real and honest and with such grace and humility... You indeed have impacted more people then you care to realise in a positive way and are a legend in your own right - THANK YOU xx - Nicola (London - UK)
@@patrickpatrick571 Are you always honest? People are complex, multidimensional human beings capable of living up to the highest standards of morality and values as well as the lowest and everything in between. No woman or man should be judged solely on their decisions to live the lives they choose even though it may not be acceptable to others. Let God be the judge.
Well she's proud of the shameful escapades she engaged in. Almost make it seem normal and inconsequential. Kinda fooled us in away. I guess he legacy still remains unblemished which is probably her primary purpose for doing this now.
How a cheater becomes honest , black ppl will never better because some scared to call a spade a spade ,,,,any other woman you would cry shame on them but this cheater get gold medal for cheating
@@patrickpatrick571 That's how most women are, especially the educated ones. They high five each other when they cheat and excoriate men for doing the same. They will even view Beverly as the victim in this whole affair. One feminist on my job who watched the entire series said that Beverly was being taken advantage of by powerful men, imagine that.
I want to commend Adtelligent TV and all involved in making this groundbreaking work possible! You have earned my support and made a new subscriber out of me.. I eagerly await your next project…
We needed to hear Bev’s side of the story with so much others claiming they knew all there was to know. She was revealing, honest and most of all humble to have had a good life in the Public’s eye. Well done producer. This indeed was our Diana and Prince Charles story in our little Jamaica!
Love her she’s so down to earth and brutally honest she’s also deep and the most compelling thing is that her spirit speaks to you, love you beautiful lady
Waow... EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT PRODUCTION!!! Thank you Miss Powe, so very much. I am enlightened in so many ways and I thank Mrs. Manley Duncan for being so candid. I bless her.
Thank you so much Sharon for your lovely comment! The community of Diaspora has really enjoyed the film we hope to tell more stories like this with even bigger audiences and really highlight Jamaican culture and our stories!
This is the best episode yet. This makes this Queen so extraordinary, she does not know the lasting power she has given, doing this.documentary! Powerful wisdom!
She was a baddie in her younger days, she said it not me. How could you have an affair with your husband best friend? Can just imagine how many affairs she had that we don't know about
Her fight for the well-being of our nation is what matters. How she got her kicks, it's between her and her maker. It should not overshadow her input and influence on our country. Some women stay faithful, but their effect doesn't go beyond their homes.
@@shereentyndale9370 we are all brainwash about history. Take my foolish advice and do your own research. How did Edward seaga become PM but he was born in Boston, Massachusetts?
Complex is the word that comes to mind as this episode goes deeper into Ms Manley-Duncan’s thoughts. Complex too were her two husbands and that period of the 70s. And it’s ok to be complex or complicated.
I am happy that you all took the time to produce this docu-series. I hope that it will ignite the politicians to do the right thing. I hope that it ignites the citizens to serve the country and to hold the leaders accountable. At this point in time, we need a 50 year roadmap, and this roadmap needs to come from the people. As people we need to collaborate to take this country forward. And most importantly, we the people need to understand that it is our right to demand respect, transparency and openness from our leaders. As a people our mindset needs to shift. It seems as if we have lost the zeal to stand up for our rights
Your welcome! We really hope to do more like this? Can you please share this sentiment with another person who you think would enjoy the film via WhatsApp etc... I promise those interactions do a lot for making it get views and engagement. And is the direct reason why we are going to bring more content like this , with more stories and even bigger screens :)
@@AdtelligentTV Leonie Forbes, Rita Marley among other impactful Jamaican who have made a difference should be highlighted, before it is too late for first hand account. You did a magnificent job, just when our Island gave me doubt and just like that I am hopeful again.
@@soniaharrison1016 What are the lessons learned? Does she have any regrets? Would she have changed any part of her life, if the opportunity were granted her?
Even when a woman with all that knowledge, character and charm is still no match for the bad boy. No matter how much of a nice guy you are, not matter how successful you are. You will lose to the bad boy.
This was a well done documentary. I checked every week for each installment. Beverley is a real woman, part of the misunderstood visionaries for Jamaica. At the end of the series, i felt a call to action to return home to make a difference. Had we followed the blue print if eating what we grow and grow what we eat, as simple as that might sound, it would have changed the trajectory of Jamaica's current state. Serious food for thought, and by the way...most salacious...
Beverley Manley was Jamaica's Winnie Mandela, over ambitious and ruthless. She was never elected co-Prime Minister. Michele Obama was far better educated and a good role model. She supported her husband but did not try to overshadow him, although we know that she had his ear and could advise him in privacy.
These 2 men were STALWARTS!!! Mike's achievements surpasses every other leader. It's exemplary!! Dr. Duncan was the best dentist I know. He extracted a tooth for me when his office was on Old Hope Rd. & when he had already taken out the tooth I was asking if it out. I felt nothing. The best dentist ever & I am a senior. Sister Bev you are a comrade & an amazing leader. 💕💕💕💕💕
I thoroughly enjoyed every part of this documentary. It's refreshing to hear Beverly Manley Duncan speak so candidly about her life and life experiences. Thank you.
A well done documentary. Congratulations to the producers. Looking forward to more "living history " projects from you. It would be interesting to see a similar project on Mitzi Seaga, as she was the wife in the other camp, during those turbulent 70's and 80's. Also to see a section of Jamaica's political history through her eyes. The husband's are dead now, so the wives can talk.
I respect her truth at first, the did some digging on google, she was having an affair with that man for 32 years, he wouldnt left his wife until she died in 2010, he married her two years after. Can you imagine what the wife must have gone through? I could never though
Yup….That’s it’s…. And would so many people be ok with this if it was a ‘regular’ Jamaican woman…. Am not not been bad…. I love the condor behavior….. But it doesn’t make it right……..
Well done Simone! Beverly, thank you for sharing your truth. There is so much work to be done in Jamaica, but the opportunities are limitless for anyone to assist causes on the island. My husband and I are doing our part and we encourage others to contribute however way they can.
This wonderfully researched ,documented and presented series must be preserved in the national archives of Jamaica! Commendations to all who made it possible. Now I’m depressed because it has come to its conclusion. 😢 more please!
What an excellent and informative documentary. Mrs. Manley-Duncan is a very intelligent and interesting lady. She lived a great life. I can listen to elders like this all day because they have great advice and interesting stories to tell.
Thank you for producing this very informative series. And although the history of Jamaica and her people is so dense and complicated, this series explained a whole lot. BTW, I could only imagine how tongues wagged when this lady threw in her lot with DK Duncan...but how could she not. She strikes me as being as real as they come and real a woman cannot simply side-step a real man...a "Man's Man." She would have to run, hide and stay hidden. I have a strong feeling that inspite of her many disappointments about the state of things in Jamaica, given the opportunity, there is not much that Beverly Manley would change about her life. 🤔 Big Up & Bless-Up to Beverly!!
I always wonder why she divorced Manley and still used Manley as her last name. Why didn’t she used back the last name Anderson? Guess many wouldn’t still remember her. Or she wanted her name to be on everybody’s lips. Just my opinion. Even after marrying to Duncan she’s still kept the Manley name, 👀 great documentary.
First of all ,she should be ashamed of her self!and two she is a adulterer, she should apologize to the Jamaican people for her behavior ,she is not a roll middle to my daughter
What an awesome documentary...I commend this Queen for speaking her own truth boldly and un- ashamed. Much respect queen with love from The Bahamas 🇧🇸.
Well done Adtelligent TV! Superior work. High production values. This is so revealing and the main players are so relatable. Before, Beverley Manley lived in the news, TV, newspapers and such. But this documentary has made her into a heroine of sorts. Naturally, she has feet of clay. Who doesn't? But her saying yes to this project has created compelling content for the archives.
Not to be too political but I think Beverly Manley-Duncan would have made one hell of a prime minister,something Portia Simpson-Miller could have only dreamt of. Such guts, such a rebel! Long live Beverly Manley-Duncan, you told your story as only you could have, you told your truths and dare I say,we are all better for having heard it. The strength of this woman is indeed life’s lessons for us all. Continued good health and blessings,may you find the inner peace we all desire in life.
“A decent way of having an affair”?? Is that not a total oxymoron?? There is nothing “decent” about it and it certainly does nothing to build Jamaica or any country. It bothers me to hear the justification which is rooted in the depths of slavery and colonialism which did not encourage marriage. Yes, we may all be mere mortals, but please don’t call wrong right. Despite it all, I appreciate the honesty, hence mine✨
@@mbubb4626 Thank you for sharing your point of view. I think we have differing perspectives on this matter. But why is it that when someone speaks out against something that is wrong, they are deemed “judgmental”? Cheating on a spouse is always wrong. Trying to make it “decent” is by definition impossible.
The right term is Adultery......people need to stop with this Affair term to pretty it up.... Her former husband did plenty and then she took a oage out if his book and did it as well. Some peopple cheats because theur spouse first cheats and to get over it ir to be pschologically sane they too have to cheat sometimes out of revenge. Both parties are wrong
Beautiful docu-series! This episode is powerful and authentic. Thank you Beverley for this keepsake, sweet from start to end! Beverley thank you for calling us all to build anew a new Jamaica for all. Well done!
All parts 1234 was such a joy to watch. It was educational in so many ways. I felt a wealth of inspiration yet also sadness and despair of our condition as black people. Mostly HOPE and FAITH that all the efforts of these Brothers and the Women who stood with them. Yes! They have made a difference and God will show it soon. Thank you Beverly Manley Duncan and your team for your truth strength, endurance, honesty, bravery and integrity. You continue to make a difference...
I thank you for this informative series. I was never a fan of Beverly Manley , however hearing her in her own words allows me to have a lot more respect for her. I grew up with my family highly politised, with one part being JLP and the other part being PNP. My father was campaign manager for Michael Manley in Central Kingston, and a cousin was later a minister in the JLP. Looking back I see it was mostly vanity, with the slogans, gangs, payoffs, and rhetoric. Had all of these intelligent Jamaicans put Jamaica first over their political asperations and selfishness, Jamaican would have been a much safer and better place. There is still hope for Jamaica but it continues to fade with every passing year.(Of course the rich and privilege in Jamaica will still think everything is fine)
I am not condemning Ms Manley Duncan but I'm very disappointed that she would do that to a man who gave her the opportunity to be first lady or Queen a most Honorable position one could ask for and especially at that time in our history light complexion and prime ministers would not even think to marry a black woman and with all the backlashing he got. People were saying he the PM did that as an example that all people are created equal and that's good but but all kinds of negativity which they make not even been aware of among locals people as well. I was happy for her but what a shock especially when she is gifted with brilliance and the luck of finding someone who handled it so well. Her life could have been snatched away am glad it wasn't. 😢
Thank you, First Lady Beverly Anderson-Manley-Duncan, for telling your story. I enjoyed watching the documentary. Wishing you all the best as you turn 80. You are truly a beautiful person.💕
Wow I remember her name when I was a little boy. I would love if she put her life story in a biopic film. Every Jamaican need to watch this documentary. I really enjoyed it. Much blessings Miss Beverley👏🏽👏🏽 💐 ❤️
She was on opertunist when power shift she shift nd go and pick up a next man in the party although after a time they did not want him in there you surprise to see what some women do for money and you surprise to see what some women do for love she was no good I sure miss Michelle Obama would not do that l am sorry I don't look up to her Dk was also a married man
I enjoyed watching, learning and being encouraged by her life experiences. I agree with her sharing her own story and being honest with it. Let no one tell tour truth. Thank you for your many years of Public Service..God bless you.
In 1983 when the the Coup d'etat took place in Grenada, I was in my penultimate year of high school and a very keen student of world affairs. Along with some of my colleagues then we did a comparative analysis of the Jamaican situation in the closing years of the PNP administration in the late 70s into 1980 against the backdrop of the Grenada Coup. I was our considered view that the same thing could have happened in Jamaica, given the fault lines that existed (as confirmed by Ms Manley-Duncan) in the party. Having said that, as progressives we were very much in tune with the vision of the then Government of the People's National Party - the whole ideology of import substitution and self-reliance. Ms Manley-Duncan's closing statements are really apt, and can be posed as a question - where are we now?
SO MANY THANK YOUS FOR THIS RIVETING SERIES. THE DIRECTOR,PRODUCER AND MOST IMPORTANT, BEVERLEY MANLEY-DUNCAN , HAVE BROUGHT TO LIGHT A PEROID THAT MANY JAMAICANS AT HOME AND THOSE LIVING ABROAD HAVE LITTLE OR ONLY LIMITED IDEAS AND UNDERSTANDING OF. GETTING A PIVITAL INSIGHT FROM BEVERLEY IS PRICELESS. WELL DONE!
I so agree with Ms. Bev on this. Was saying that to a friend this morning. How can we be comfortable in a society with so much inequity??? My father (God rest his soul) asked PJ the same question when they were thinking about building that cricket ground out in Westmoreland for Cricket World Cup. Sadly like DK my father felt that his life was wasted bec he couldn’t get to complete the Vision. And yup I will be using the same song fir his Memorial Service bec he was one of those “People like You”. It seems to me that we have regressed so much since the 70s but I’d like to think that our young ppl will pick up the baton to help JA get back on track. I really enjoyed this documentary and thanks to Ms Bev my former tutor and lecturer in Politics for continuing to be so real and courageous. My former First Lady who has unwittingly and inadvertently moulded more strong courageous women of my generation. Thank you Adtelligent Team for putting this together. Well done and looking forward to the next one. Walk good.
As someone who has known Bev since St. Hugh's High School days, I am truly proud of her and the stand she has taken.....most of all my admiration is for her HONESTY. May God continue to bless her.
DK got things done that Michael didn't want to touch and in a party like the PNP you need someone who was almost a " hit man "? Is Beverly obliquely confessing that murder was part of the things to do? Hmmmm. Just wondering
The ability to speak truthfully about our experiences is the ultimate agency of our liberation. This documentary represents a powerful moment in that process. More power to mi sista! Judgements are irrelevant… when the Truth sets us free- we are free indeed.
👍
That’s right the truth will always set us free some people spend their life living a lie.
Well said
She is Still a harlot
This production was absolutely eye-opening and top tier! I think Mrs. Manley-Duncan has not been recognized for her contribution to the development of Jamaica in terms of access to education and upward mobility of the underclass. This production team should be proud of a work well done.
Are you proud of her dishonest?
Still waiting for them to identify the changes Beverley cheating disrespectful Duncan brought to Jamaica and how we are benefiting from it today. Manley not here today to defend his position from her lies. He was the brain behind the changes he made. Nothing to do with her and that backstabbing traitor Duncan.
U don't know what you're talking about Mrs. Duncan and Manley gave us mayhem and dead bodies in the street
She is recognized for her cheating skills and obviously she has no sense of pride to be proud of being a damn cheater with her husband at the time friend.
As a Trinidadian, I must say that I was not knowledgeable about the history of other islands. This interview series has been very educational and I thank Ms.Manley Duncan for her honesty and her information. I stumbled on this series and am very grateful for it. Thanks to everyone who participated in making this production possible.❤️🙏🏽. Forgot to mention that I migrated to the US at age 10 to an environment where I usually was the only WI child. No opportunity to mingle with other Caribbeans.
She's a cheater without regard , worthless
There’s nothing honorable about cheating, whether you’re a man or woman. Cheating is fraud and that’s not right.
Everything is in context. Don't judge.
@@eileenwatt8283 you people should stop saying “don’t judge”. Is it ok to be dishonest? A lie is a lie, there’s nothing like white lies or black lies, so stop the “don’t judge” nonsense.
@@nosaoyemade9618 she didnt say it was right, she admitted they both did something wrong

Exactly
“When he danced with me, I realized something was up!” What went up Bev?🤔🤣
We caught that too!!
All of the up young and strong 💪🏽
😂😂
Bev get a squeeze from DK
His piston went up
Very inspirational, honest, thought engendering and heartfelt. What a time to be Jamaican. Thank you.
I’ve literally been checking everyday for the completion of this series. I enjoyed every bit. Thank you ❤
me too! I can't get enough of it!!
I had no idea she was such a cool person as a child growing up I think she was too pretty to be in politics married to a politician
She was and still an inspiration for all woman, just be yourself!
Me too
I stumbled across this docu-series unintentionally and I'm grateful I did.
Hats off to the entire production team and The Honourable Beverly Manley Duncan - you are all an inspiration across the generations. Thank you
Honorable cheater?? Smh
@@randygreaves8362 what is YOUR problem???? Manley cheated ALL throughout their marriage, with MANY women, suh whappen if HIM get bun? YUH LUDDY!!!!
Bad gyal in streets, house, educated and uneducated. Same work different levels... Saying a woman shouldn't feel guilty about being unfaithful is spreading a Jezebel spirit...
I have NEVER EVER made a comment on UA-cam but I’ve been so inspired by this video clip. I appreciate Mrs. Manley-Duncan’s very candid, non-hypocritical approach to the interview. I believe the ultimate measure of success on this earth is to discover our true selves, and then use this discovery to make this world and the lives of others a better place. Bravo!!!
Really enjoyed the series and learned a lot about Jamaican politics. 🇯🇲🇬🇧
Salacious... scandalous...delicious. So raw. I can't get enough of this series. What a life lived!! What a pioneer!!
Thank you Ms. Beverly for being a voice for women like my mom.
Clear information, well articulated, History, gripping, open, honest, most importantly Mrs Manley/Duncan is alive to tell is the story. What a refreshing difference. She tells us. Exceedingly WELL DONE👌🏿🇹🇹💐
OMG, wow, there are simply no words! First of all, commendations to the entire production team, excellent docuseries. A very courageous Beverley Anderson Manley Duncan telling her truth as she recalls. Those of us who lived through the '70s until now, are left with a lot of emotions and a lot to reflect on! As we continue to celebrate Jamaica's Diamond jubilee, it's a privilege to look back and remember the journey! Thank you Beverley for taking us down memory lane, and quite a bit of revelations!
The only thing I've learned from this documentary is that Jamaicans really don't have any moral compass this big woman should be ashamed of herself instead she seems to be celebrated
I didn't know this woman before but I was so impressed with her in this interview that I am now a new fan and admirer. Such brilliance and wisdom displayed.
She is a brilliant and cheeky woman but honest and witty
How old are you?
So why she still using manley name
You like thots?
Excellent docu series. Thank you to the Powe siblings for giving us a timely wake up and reminder. The question of the hour really asks me to come home and fight alongside my people. "Where we go 1 we go all".. style. A kind of do or die because it really has come down to this on every land mass globally. Sovereignty and patriotism need to be refueled with good old time values that really did us no wrong. It is why Jamaica has made a name on the world stage. Jamaicans just need to be Jamaicans to spark a fire of joy and happiness wherever they go. That comes from elders/ancestors who taught us resilience in the face of any hardship; survival in the face of war; chill vibes in the face of adversity. Jamaica is going thru the dark night of the soul and I am sure that we will pull through. How? Good question. If we look to the music of Bob, we will see that the natural mystics ( us Jamaicans ) flow and adapt. We also see that destruction is necessary. The great reset is a time of destruction, chaos and rebirth. The snake eating its tail; the Ouroubos; the cycle of birth, death and rebirth. We are in it to win it. Eyes open, no fear, be safe everyone.Much love
What a phenomenal woman yet again she left me smiling. So down to earth, raw, authentic with her truth. I came away feeling bless to have heard her story. She was open and had a lot of humour in her delivery. You could not helped but warm to her. She comes across as a woman who lived her life the best way she could and had a fulfilling life. Yes her life was not perfect but she presents as happy with no major regrets. She was able to do a lot in her time but she has not seen much major shift presently, in the life of the people she spent the most of her life looking out for. Regardless she stood up for others and worked to bring about change for women. She was and is a forced to be reckoned with. She is not your typical Jamaican woman who at her age would be trying to hide the not so good things of her life. She spoke her truth and that’s all you can do. She was unapologetically herself witty, without any heirs and graces. Very insightful. Last but not lease she is ageing well like fine wine such beauty.
Am sorry, but Bev is no damn force to be reckoned with. Those messy infidelity is nothing to be gracious about. Especially when you become a public figure. To much is given, much is expected. We need to hold the people who lead to high standards as the decisions they make can make or break. How can we have a prime minister cheating on his wife and his wife in return cheating on him, especially with someone in his own cabinet, and talk about she's a force to be reckoned with? That's madness. Now i know why Jam is struggling so much and have not shown any sign of recovery. Bad leaders from the start..
@@ripqueenelizabeth8617Oh so when someone is a public figure they fall outside the realm of being human. Bev showed that she was human and had substance. She was not one of those typical “fool fool”Jamaican woman who in those days would sit powerless and let their husband walk over them. She did what pleases her and what made her happy. She lived her truth and her best life. Had she not, she would now be looking broken and beaten down. You can see she lived her life well. How many 80 year old women in Jamaica looks well like her.
A part of that is the fact that she did not sit and subscribe to the traditional patriarchal nonsense that she would have come up against. Whilst infidelity can be and often is devastating it has been around since the start of human existence so she would not be the first and the last to have had an affair. I bet if she had been a man admitting that he had affairs whilst being married no one would bat an eye lid. However as she is a woman she is seen in a different light. What an adult chooses to do in the confines of their bedroom has nothing to do with the quality of work that they are able to produce. What some people need to understand is that the work title or office that a person holds does not stop them from being human. A job title/position doesn’t make you exempt from the reality of life.
So whilst her life was not the ideal that you would have expected she lived her life the way she wanted and not sat back like some poor thing feeling sorry for herself. I say kudos to her for being who she wanted to be and having the guts to do so amidst the noise. As a result look how happy she looks. Does it look like she is bothered about you and others hypocrisy? I hardly think so.
He/She who is without sin cast the first stone!
@@ripqueenelizabeth8617 judge not lest he be judged.
He without sin cause the first stone
@@ciab475only thing she showed was that she’s a thot lol there’s nothing beautiful about that
This is beautiful and well put together. Beverly has such a brilliant mind and is a great communicator. This documentary capture her at the right moment when she can speak candidly and honestly about her life story. This will make an impact now and for many years to come. Thank you guys for doing this. Love it!!
If another woman did cheat on her husband you wouldn't have such nice words for her, oono biased sah.
What can I say, although I don't share the ideas of 'cheating' in relationships, she speaks her truth. Michael did his dirt in the past too but that doesn't make it ok. He really wanted his family. I wished they would've stuck it out together.
Michael was married 6 times. Twice to the same woman so he too was messed up. They were all trying to figure things out.
She did not stick with him we hen things go bad with him she was an opertunist she leave him for a close man to him who was also a married man she think we was going to take over the party but they did not want him in there remember they use to say he was a communist Dk Duncan was one who cause Mr Manley to loose so bad in1980 see Michael win back 1989 she see that Duncan could not take over the party she is not somebody I would look up too she nd his wife was also friends she bad from long time when power shift she shift
@@faygayle9505 I'll never disagree with you based on what went down, now that she's putting it out there.... I'm sure Manley was hurt by it, especially since he was not young anymore and might have felt that he finally got it right.... As I said he did his dirt, but I still feel bad for him, and now her, as I'm sure she realized that was a huge decision, not mistake she made. Again she has to live with it, not me....never want to be in those shoes. A very smart, articulate and educated woman though.
That would .be a good example if you want to run the street by cheating file for a divorce can you imagine the pain and agony you put that man through what if the shoe was on the other foot what if the man get up in the middle of the night and say he was leaving with another woman I guess that would .be a whole different ball game viewers you would want to put that in the archives honest
@@peterdaley3351 you are right, but I think because we rarely hear women admit to cheating publicly.....they are more discreet, men get more flack for it. Not sure what the stats are now on the % of each gender, but will say that men seem to run the streets more......the number of children born outside of marriages and common law relationships fathered by these men speaks volumes.
I am from Barbados and studied political science which entailed some elements of Jamaica's political history. Watching such an informative documentary featuring Mrs. Beverly Manley-Duncan describing Jamaica's political climate, her life and contribution was absolutely amazing. Wonderful documentary, looking forward for more productions like these to come.
I guess cheating has become a wonderful thing I guess no one respect their commitment. Any more two wort cannot make right why make a secrik vow if you can not honour it this is not a one sided coin we have a lot of cold hearted people in our modern society
@@peterdaley3351 mannnn but 1 thing for sure,you have to respect her honesty..
That's all you got out of it?
@@peterdaley3351 and she is one
If a man spoke like this the women would bash him for being unfaithful and some derogatory names.. but people are saying she's bold , strong and speaking her truth.... hypocritical society!!
Manley cheated on her with white women she bun him back
@paulbiring743 Arwaks were black and she mentioned color so take it up with her.
How could she do that to her best friend?
Grace was the true victim here.
OMG!
Ikr
I understand your point, I am the child of a similar situation, however as I have gotten older, I can say every one was an adult Grace could have left DK, and she didn't make any promises to Grace. Please don't come for me on here. I have held your position for years until I got older, and understood that we all make choices
She steal Grace man.
What I get from all of this is that they were both inlove with each other just that they found themselves with different people and just was waiting for an opportunity to be together
Brutally honest and unfiltered...speaking her truth. Who will take up the baton left by Jamaicans like Michael Manley, D.K Duncan and especially Lady Beverley? From age 10 as a Boy Scout up to when I left Jamaica in 1995 to pursue an opportunity to attend University,I knew what it meant to serve your community and country.
I thank Beverley for her service to Jamaica 🇯🇲. Walk good and best wishes for a longer,healthy and happy life.
You appear to be a privileged young boy who knows nothing. I lived it. Look at the state of Jamaica and its people. Anyone with a baton must be worthy and there has never been one and never will be one until that glorious day. I do NOT think that there has ever been and is anyone on this planet who can protect or defend our people until the appointed time!
Tell me what did Beverley actually lead?? Still confused.
@@jahmehkanhorn1063 you have to watch the previous videos as there are more than one parts in order to get a full understanding of her role as the "First Lady" etc. She was the founder of the PNP Women's movement and influenced many policies with women and children , including the Jamaica House Basic school.
@@jahmehkanhorn1063 according to people who are older than I, she is the reason that Jamaican women have maternity leave while to this day the great America doesn't have that.
Just one example

I have enjoyed every minute of this whole series. Job well done to the team and live well lived Ms Manley-Duncan.
I only recently happened to find this series. Oh to reach the stage in life where you can be totally transparent, about who, and what you are. I really like this lady, I find her persona truly inspiring, she is honest. The noblest and greatest of all virtues.
Well done !! Excellent documentation. I was hooked . I learned so much . Thank you Beverly for your honesty .Michael Manley is my favorite Prime Minister up to now . What an impressive man !!!
A long journey Beverly , you survived , so now take care of you .
You are an intriguing, intelligent lady! Thanks so much for your honesty and insight. I am loving this docuseries so much, the history, the politics, the cultral evolution and the juicy details! 😊😊🤗
One thing I learned by getting older is not to judge others because I, too, have done things I wish I could undo. I believe Mrs. Manley-Duncan and appreciate her honesty. One thing I know as a Jamaican is that we are secretive, and the truth is something that we hide. No matter how adverse the condition, we choose to suffer in silence; at least, those people from my era did that. Her approach to marriage isn't typical of Jamaican women of the 60s and before.
This strong, intellectual woman inspires me to walk into my truth, even if it means walking alone. Thanks for all you did and are doing for my beautiful isle. May Jamaica rise above her struggles. Peace.
So agree👍🏾😊
I am intrigued by Mrs. Manley -Duncan's intelligence, charm, eloquence and candor. Thanks
Adtelligent TV for this amazing and informative docuseries.
I stumbled across your documentary and was hooked as I watched all three and was wondering when is part 4 and asked the question and someone replied to say today so I clicked on the notification bell so I won't miss it.This woman is an icon - she's phenomenal and admire her so much.Im from the UK and heard of her being Michael Manley wife but never delved any further into her so thank you.She is so glamorous - I want to age gracefully like her although she does not look 80 -she look my age 67.She's so honest admitting she was naughty and rightly so she should not feel ashamed- men have affair all the time and Manley was doing his thing too!
Congratulations to everyone involved in the production!
I searched for this final segment of the series, was somewhat disappointed when I could not locate it. I'm so happy that it is now released. I remembered clearly Beverly Anderson on JBC radio and when Michael burst on the political scene. I was very young at the time and was really pulled to his ideology. I was annoyed at people who criticized his choice of Beverly Anderson. I liked that she was a darker shade and Jamaica was being taken into a new era of having a dark skinned woman as First Lady of the country. Things were changing!!! The 70s through the 80's were definitely challenging times - so much misunderstanding, and undermining. I wonder where Jamaica would have been today had Michael won the 1980 election. I love Beverly's honesty in sharing her narrative, she was willing to risk all for DK (ie his philosophy) but he was not willing to do the same for her. ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I felt the same way. Prime Minister Michael Manley paved the way for darker skin women and people in general. I remember when he made educational opportunities for black children too bad I was one year past that opportunity but it gave me joy to see children who couldn't attend certain school in Jamaica could for the first time could now attend. May he rest in peace ✌️ when he lost the election that's when his wife should stand by his side as she said "where though go I shall go" I like that she was or maybe still an advocate for women
Amazing documentary...Beverley is so phenomenal and refreshingly honest!! When you are crusader for the uplifting of others it is easy to look back and feel worthless bc it's an endless journey, the more you uncover is the more that needs to be uncovered. You just have to know that you did your best and, at some level, you made a difference---which they all did!
Wow! Blown away by this series...a woman of poise, intelligence and humanity at the same time reflective and honest about her flaws. This story would make an amazing film! It needs to be told!
Wow, wow wow. Thank you Mrs Beverley Anderson Manley Duncan for this brave inside scoop. You are a living legend. There is hope for Jamaica. We will rise. Your work will not be in vain. Production team, you ought to be proud of this amazing piece of journalism. Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉

@@patrickpatrick571 Are you always honest? People are complex, multidimensional human beings capable of living up to the highest standards of morality and values as well as the lowest and everything in between. No woman or man should be judged solely on their decisions to live the lives they choose even though it may not be acceptable to others. Let God be the judge.
Loved the entire series. She is so refreshingly honest and whip-smart. That look when she said, "we were naughty..." tells it all.
Well she's proud of the shameful escapades she engaged in. Almost make it seem normal and inconsequential. Kinda fooled us in away. I guess he legacy still remains unblemished which is probably her primary purpose for doing this now.
How a cheater becomes honest , black ppl will never better because some scared to call a spade a spade ,,,,any other woman you would cry shame on them but this cheater get gold medal for cheating
@@patrickpatrick571 That's how most women are, especially the educated ones. They high five each other when they cheat and excoriate men for doing the same. They will even view Beverly as the victim in this whole affair. One feminist on my job who watched the entire series said that Beverly was being taken advantage of by powerful men, imagine that.

This is the best episode yet. This makes this Queen so extraordinary, she does not know the lasting power she has given, doing this.documentary! Powerful wisdom!
She was a baddie in her younger days, she said it not me. How could you have an affair with your husband best friend? Can just imagine how many affairs she had that we don't know about
She is speaking her truth therefore she bore it all. If there were any more relationships within the marriage or relationship she would have said it
Her fight for the well-being of our nation is what matters. How she got her kicks, it's between her and her maker. It should not overshadow her input and influence on our country. Some women stay faithful, but their effect doesn't go beyond their homes.

Complex is the word that comes to mind as this episode goes deeper into Ms Manley-Duncan’s thoughts. Complex too were her two husbands and that period of the 70s. And it’s ok to be complex or complicated.
She is a Scorpio woman . I heard they have complex personality.
Phenomenal documentary. Thank you for sharing. She’s 80 years old? Wow, she looks fantastic!!! Blessings to you Mrs. Beverly Manley-Duncan 🙏🏾
I am happy that you all took the time to produce this docu-series. I hope that it will ignite the politicians to do the right thing. I hope that it ignites the citizens to serve the country and to hold the leaders accountable. At this point in time, we need a 50 year roadmap, and this roadmap needs to come from the people. As people we need to collaborate to take this country forward. And most importantly, we the people need to understand that it is our right to demand respect, transparency and openness from our leaders. As a people our mindset needs to shift. It seems as if we have lost the zeal to stand up for our rights

@@countvan7406 It will never end. It is hardwired into females to like the bad boy.

This was a well done documentary. I checked every week for each installment. Beverley is a real woman, part of the misunderstood visionaries for Jamaica. At the end of the series, i felt a call to action to return home to make a difference. Had we followed the blue print if eating what we grow and grow what we eat, as simple as that might sound, it would have changed the trajectory of Jamaica's current state. Serious food for thought, and by the way...most salacious...
MIGRATION is our biggest issue..Jamaicans rather complain about our situation than tackle them head-on
Never walk in Michelle Obama shoe one first lady I respect very classy nd decent would never take two man from the same party
Beverley Manley was Jamaica's Winnie Mandela, over ambitious and ruthless. She was never elected co-Prime Minister. Michele Obama was far better educated and a good role model. She supported her husband but did not try to overshadow him, although we know that she had his ear and could advise him in privacy.
Candid. I love the honestly. Excellent background information. I can see clearly now...know i have a better understanding of the 70s...Thankyou
These 2 men were STALWARTS!!! Mike's achievements surpasses every other leader. It's exemplary!! Dr. Duncan was the best dentist I know. He extracted a tooth for me when his office was on Old Hope Rd. & when he had already taken out the tooth I was asking if it out. I felt nothing. The best dentist ever & I am a senior. Sister Bev you are a comrade & an amazing leader. 💕💕💕💕💕
Great interviews. Very impressive! Thanks for doing this.
I thoroughly enjoyed every part of this documentary. It's refreshing to hear Beverly Manley Duncan speak so candidly about her life and life experiences. Thank you.
Love, love, love this!!! It was absolutely needed.
A well done documentary. Congratulations to the producers. Looking forward to more "living history " projects from you. It would be interesting to see a similar project on Mitzi Seaga, as she was the wife in the other camp, during those turbulent 70's and 80's. Also to see a section of Jamaica's political history through her eyes. The husband's are dead now, so the wives can talk.
I agree
I couldn't have said it better
YEP YEP....
YEP YEP....
Totally agree
Great quality and content. Again, thank you.👏
I respect her truth at first, the did some digging on google, she was having an affair with that man for 32 years, he wouldnt left his wife until she died in 2010, he married her two years after. Can you imagine what the wife must have gone through? I could never though
Yup….That’s it’s…. And would so many people be ok with this if it was a ‘regular’ Jamaican woman…. Am not not been bad…. I love the condor behavior….. But it doesn’t make it right……..
Well done Simone! Beverly, thank you for sharing your truth. There is so much work to be done in Jamaica, but the opportunities are limitless for anyone to assist causes on the island. My husband and I are doing our part and we encourage others to contribute however way they can.
This wonderfully researched ,documented and presented series must be preserved in the national archives of Jamaica! Commendations to all who made it possible. Now I’m depressed because it has come to its conclusion. 😢 more please!
Keep the doccumentaries coming. This will educate our people. Thaank you!
What an excellent and informative documentary. Mrs. Manley-Duncan is a very intelligent and interesting lady. She lived a great life. I can listen to elders like this all day because they have great advice and interesting stories to tell.
Thank you for producing this very informative series. And although the history of Jamaica and her people is so dense and complicated, this series explained a whole lot. BTW, I could only imagine how tongues wagged when this lady threw in her lot with DK Duncan...but how could she not. She strikes me as being as real as they come and real a woman cannot simply side-step a real man...a "Man's Man." She would have to run, hide and stay hidden.
I have a strong feeling that inspite of her many disappointments about the state of things in Jamaica, given the opportunity, there is not much that Beverly Manley would change about her life. 🤔
Big Up & Bless-Up to Beverly!!
Thank you so much please share with someone you know !
Bev u have spoken the truth .U have cleared ur mind no burden or secrets to die with..
@@AdtelligentTV %@
I always wonder why she divorced Manley and still used Manley as her last name. Why didn’t she used back the last name Anderson? Guess many wouldn’t still remember her. Or she wanted her name to be on everybody’s lips. Just my opinion. Even after marrying to Duncan she’s still kept the Manley name, 👀 great documentary.
Maybe she wanted to keep the same last name as her children? It’s pretty common.
First of all ,she should be ashamed of her self!and two she is a adulterer, she should apologize to the Jamaican people for her behavior ,she is not a roll middle to my daughter
4th you need to repent 80years old shame, shame, shame.

Well done Adtelligent TV! Superior work. High production values. This is so revealing and the main players are so relatable. Before, Beverley Manley lived in the news, TV, newspapers and such. But this documentary has made her into a heroine of sorts. Naturally, she has feet of clay. Who doesn't? But her saying yes to this project has created compelling content for the archives.
Not to be too political but I think Beverly Manley-Duncan would have made one hell of a prime minister,something Portia Simpson-Miller could have only dreamt of. Such guts, such a rebel! Long live Beverly Manley-Duncan, you told your story as only you could have, you told your truths and dare I say,we are all better for having heard it. The strength of this woman is indeed life’s lessons for us all. Continued good health and blessings,may you find the inner peace we all desire in life.
This is an awesome docuseries. I am so inspired by the determination, love and power of this Queen. Excellent job done on this entire project.
“A decent way of having an affair”?? Is that not a total oxymoron?? There is nothing “decent” about it and it certainly does nothing to build Jamaica or any country. It bothers me to hear the justification which is rooted in the depths of slavery and colonialism which did not encourage marriage. Yes, we may all be mere mortals, but please don’t call wrong right. Despite it all, I appreciate the honesty, hence mine✨
There is actually a decent way to have an affair. It's not an oxymoron. It's reality. Don't be so judgemental.

But why is it that when someone speaks out against something that is wrong, they are deemed “judgmental”? Cheating on a spouse is always wrong. Trying to make it “decent” is by definition impossible.
just remember colonial masters cheated too..not everything is about slavery..it just human beings and our behavior..
The right term is Adultery......people need to stop with this Affair term to pretty it up.... Her former husband did plenty and then she took a oage out if his book and did it as well. Some peopple cheats because theur spouse first cheats and to get over it ir to be pschologically sane they too have to cheat sometimes out of revenge. Both parties are wrong

Thanks Miss Beverly for this docuseries. It was very entertaining but not only that thanks for being you!
It’s good that Beverley has a PhD , getting herself qualified as a PM’s wife , which I think every PM ‘s wife should be .
Beautiful docu-series! This episode is powerful and authentic. Thank you Beverley for this keepsake, sweet from start to end! Beverley thank you for calling us all to build anew a new Jamaica for all. Well done!
All parts 1234 was such a joy to watch. It was educational in so many ways. I felt a wealth of inspiration yet also sadness and despair of our condition as black people. Mostly HOPE and FAITH that all the efforts of these Brothers and the Women who stood with them. Yes! They have made a difference and God will show it soon. Thank you Beverly Manley Duncan and your team for your truth strength, endurance, honesty, bravery and integrity. You continue to make a difference...
I absolutely enjoyed this entire series. It was Enlightening and empowering. Thank you for sharing with us!
Much respect to Beverly Manley.
So love this Woman..Real as Ever..Thanks for Sharing with us🙌
I thank you for this informative series. I was never a fan of Beverly Manley , however hearing her in her own words allows me to have a lot more respect for her. I grew up with my family highly politised, with one part being JLP and the other part being PNP.
My father was campaign manager for Michael Manley in Central Kingston, and a cousin was later a minister in the JLP. Looking back I see it was mostly vanity, with the slogans, gangs, payoffs, and rhetoric. Had all of these intelligent Jamaicans put Jamaica first over their political asperations and selfishness, Jamaican would have been a much safer and better place. There is still hope for Jamaica but it continues to fade with every passing year.(Of course the rich and privilege in Jamaica will still think everything is fine)
I am not condemning Ms Manley Duncan but I'm very disappointed that she would do that to a man who gave her the opportunity to be first lady or Queen a most Honorable position one could ask for and especially at that time in our history light complexion and prime ministers would not even think to marry a black woman and with all the backlashing he got. People were saying he the PM did that as an example that all people are created equal and that's good but but all kinds of negativity which they make not even been aware of among locals people as well. I was happy for her but what a shock especially when she is gifted with brilliance and the luck of finding someone who handled it so well. Her life could have been snatched away am glad it wasn't. 😢
Thank you, First Lady Beverly Anderson-Manley-Duncan, for telling your story. I enjoyed watching the documentary. Wishing you all the best as you turn 80. You are truly a beautiful person.💕
Wow I remember her name when I was a little boy. I would love if she put her life story in a biopic film. Every Jamaican need to watch this documentary. I really enjoyed it. Much blessings Miss Beverley👏🏽👏🏽 💐 ❤️
I agree
She was on opertunist when power shift she shift nd go and pick up a next man in the party although after a time they did not want him in there you surprise to see what some women do for money and you surprise to see what some women do for love she was no good I sure miss Michelle Obama would not do that l am sorry I don't look up to her Dk was also a married man
Sounds good to me. Who would play Miss Beverley?
@@kazkazzie3906 Krystal Tomlinson that just my opinion🤔
@@dwightblake4835 i don't know her, i'll have to look her up.
I enjoyed watching, learning and being encouraged by her life experiences. I agree with her sharing her own story and being honest with it. Let no one tell tour truth. Thank you for your many years of Public Service..God bless you.
In 1983 when the the Coup d'etat took place in Grenada, I was in my penultimate year of high school and a very keen student of world affairs. Along with some of my colleagues then we did a comparative analysis of the Jamaican situation in the closing years of the PNP administration in the late 70s into 1980 against the backdrop of the Grenada Coup. I was our considered view that the same thing could have happened in Jamaica, given the fault lines that existed (as confirmed by Ms Manley-Duncan) in the party. Having said that, as progressives we were very much in tune with the vision of the then Government of the People's National Party - the whole ideology of import substitution and self-reliance. Ms Manley-Duncan's closing statements are really apt, and can be posed as a question - where are we now?
I have admired and still do Beverley Manley Duncan. You are first human Miss Bev. You are a lovely woman. Thank you for speaking your truth.
Excellent documentary! I just finished reading her memoirs earlier this week. It picked up where the book left off. Very fascinating woman.
SO MANY THANK YOUS FOR THIS RIVETING SERIES. THE DIRECTOR,PRODUCER AND MOST IMPORTANT, BEVERLEY MANLEY-DUNCAN , HAVE BROUGHT TO LIGHT A PEROID THAT MANY JAMAICANS AT HOME AND THOSE LIVING ABROAD HAVE LITTLE OR ONLY LIMITED IDEAS AND UNDERSTANDING OF. GETTING A PIVITAL INSIGHT FROM BEVERLEY IS PRICELESS. WELL DONE!
READING THESE COMMENTS THIS TELLS ME THAT ADULTERY IS ACCEPTED AND PRAISED IN OUR SOCIETY. WHAT A SAD NATION WE HAVE BECOME.
I agree most of these ppl has nooooo morals Beverly manley was a slot aka hoe nuff said
Excellent work Adtelligent! Beverley Manley Duncan looks stunning, love that yellow dress...her honesty is respected and well-needed today!
Just brilliant, enjoyed every minute of this docomentary.
Absolutely LUV these episodes, looking forward to more! ~ Lena B.
I so agree with Ms. Bev on this. Was saying that to a friend this morning. How can we be comfortable in a society with so much inequity???
My father (God rest his soul) asked PJ the same question when they were thinking about building that cricket ground out in Westmoreland for Cricket World Cup.
Sadly like DK my father felt that his life was wasted bec he couldn’t get to complete the Vision. And yup I will be using the same song fir his Memorial Service bec he was one of those “People like You”.
It seems to me that we have regressed so much since the 70s but I’d like to think that our young ppl will pick up the baton to help JA get back on track.
I really enjoyed this documentary and thanks to Ms Bev my former tutor and lecturer in Politics for continuing to be so real and courageous. My former First Lady who has unwittingly and inadvertently moulded more strong courageous women of my generation.
Thank you Adtelligent Team for putting this together. Well done and looking forward to the next one.
Walk good.
For sure. Walk good Bev
As someone who has known Bev since St. Hugh's High School days, I am truly proud of her and the stand she has taken.....most of all my admiration is for her HONESTY. May God continue to bless her.
Fidelitas!❤️
Thanks for you contribution to Jamaica Mrs. BMD
Thank you Mrs bold and beautiful Beverly Manley Duncan for your honesty. And to the production team for a job well done. Respect and ❤.
I didn’t want it to end. Such a regal beautiful woman. I hope to age with such grace and wisdom.
Yeah tell that to the many families who were maimed and killed
DK got things done that Michael didn't want to touch and in a party like the PNP you need someone who was almost a " hit man "? Is Beverly obliquely confessing that murder was part of the things to do? Hmmmm. Just wondering
some things r obvious..
Gunman she want Ina are hole 🤣
It's just how politicians talk bad boys all a them
LOVE this series! So many life lessons! Thanks for doing such a phenomenal job at letting her speak her truth and tell her story. 👏🏾👏🏼👏
Love you Beverly you truly are a real woman not faking it. No judgments from me. Big up.
