Faybiene Miranda—a Reggae Strong profile

This interview and performance with Faybiene Miranda on Reggae Strong, was shot in 1989 in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NY, late afternoon to evening on a beautiful autumn day. Faybiene was interviewed and photographed by our Director, Stafford Ashani, who’d also published, “Sun and Moon“, a small book of poetry with Faybiene and Mutabaruka back in the 1970s. Faybiene performs 3 poems here and also a short rendition of “Prophecy“, her monster reggae classic from 1977. A singular artist and cultural icon, sorely missed by family, fans and glad that we have these remembrances of you. Give thanks to Faybiene’s daughter, Chi Vital, for the photo of Faybiene on the beach in Jamaica. Rest in Peace, Stafford.
