Drug Awareness

"I love RnB music! I love dancehall! I love hip-hop! But there is no denying that some of the messages across the genres encourage drug use. Music plays such an important roll in each of our lives that the message should be one that uplifts instead of destroys. Which will you listen to?" -Da Weh Dat!

It's nice to see that a group of Belizeans have come together to form a website that is not only for entertainment but also for informative purposes. Even though this site, at first glance, may seem like pure foolishness, there are many positive lessons like the one displayed in the link above. The positivity surrounding this site is more than refreshing, especially in a culture where we love to see people fail but rarely cheer when they succeed.

Hopefully, this message to be Drug Free will encourage those who have never used drugs to not start, and those who have, to slow down or stop. Saint John's College School of Liberal Arts has activities lined up everyday in Drug Awareness Week, so hopefully we get the majority of students involved in hopes that we can have "Men & Women for Others" who are also Drug Free!
