In this vibrant episode of Pretty Little Jacket, we’re live from Antigua with Senator Michael Freeland, Deputy Chairman of the Festivals Commission—and the heartbeat behind a bold new era of politics and culture in the Caribbean. From restoring community representation in St. George to redefining what it means to truly serve the people, Senator Freeland shares a powerful grassroots vision rooted in empowerment, pride, and unity.
But this convo goes way beyond politics. We dive into what makes Antigua’s Carnival the greatest summer festival—a dazzling celebration of music, culture, pageantry, and steel pan, powered by the island’s talented youth. Plus, we unpack why Antigua is one of the safest, most welcoming places on Earth, with 365 beaches and a spirit you have to feel to believe. Come for the Carnival, stay for the culture—and discover why Antigua is the true heart of the Caribbean.
