I'm
delighted
to be
back
here
at
Clifford
Park,
in
which
I have
such
happy
memories
of representing my mother, Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II,
at the Independence celebrations
in 1973.
I can hardly believe that it has been 53 years since I stood here
and watched the Bahamian
flag raised for the very first time.
It is only right that we
should acknowledge the great
suffering and injustices of the
past in these islands and beyond,
even as we rejoice in the successes of the present
and build new opportunities
for the future.
