Part 2 - Host Neville James continues the conversation with Shereen Flax, former House of Assembly member, business owner, and cultural figure from the British Virgin Islands, who argues against proposals to grant exclusive cruise ship access to The Baths and Devil’s Bay, emphasizing public beach access, tourism equity, conservation funding, and the livelihoods of local businesses and charter operators. Later, caller Frank Gumbs joins the discussion, and Donald “Ducks” Cole weigh in on the economic, environmental, and policy implications of the issue while reflecting on Virgin Islands tourism, hurricane recovery, infrastructure maintenance, and the importance of balancing revenue generation with preserving the territory’s natural treasures.
