    COMMENTARY: BY OSWALD T. BROWN

    WASHINGTON, D.C., June 30, 2019 – I take tremendous delight is sharing the Facebook post that accompanies this commentary because it provides extremely valuable information on The Bahamas’ rich musical cultural history. David “Funky D” Ferguson, the talented Bahamian entertainer, posted a collage of mementos regarding his participation in the “Tingum Bahamian and More” Cultural Day at T. G. Glover Professional Development & Research School on May 23, 2019 with the following caption:

    “Nothing is more rewarding than giving back to the community which has been so supportive of me and my career. Thank you T. G. Glover Professional Development & Research School for having me. God is Good!”

    I don’t think it is a secret to those persons who follow my posts on Facebook and feature articles I have written as a working journalist that FUNKY D is one of my favourite Bahamian entertainers – actually, he is one of my favourite entertainers world-wide.
