Sister Nancy is not a simple story. She is a dancehall legend who was sampled by the world but never fully seen by it. The story spans decades. It crosses countries. It pulls together a life that was not always easy to find. That kind of documentary does not happen without someone doing the deep work before the cameras ever roll. For Bam Bam, that someone was Jalana. The Barbara Sears Award for Best Editorial Research exists to honour exactly that kind of dedication, and we couldn’t be prouder to see her name in that conversation. Congratulations Jalana. members, we hope you celebrate good research the way we do. Please watch the story of Sister Nancy and Vote.
