High praise for Trudy, Anieshia

THE EDITOR, Sir:
I AM a Jamaican living in America. I recently witnessed two most memorable moments. First Trudy and then Anieshia.
Let me take this opportunity to say congratulations to Trudy for a competitive third place in the Scripps Howard spelling bee competition.
Secondly, I am wondering why more exposure was not given to Anieshia Williams. I am not a professional at this but let me just say that Anieshia gave an excellent speech at the Caribbean Speech Festival. While her competitors spoke from a piece of paper, she spoke from the heart. Truly a Jamaican she is. She stood with poise and spoke with liberty for her country.
