Biography

Andrea Jacob, a medical social worker, and educator, resides in Trinidad. Her early life was impacted by her Christian upbringing, resulting in her having a passion for truth and equality. Her life’s journey took a turn when she came into contact with the revolutionary ideologies of the late 1960s and 80s. This caused her to leave the classroom to join other brave young persons engaged in armed struggle against the state. Following her subsequent imprisonment, she successfully pursued a Master of Social Work degree. From Freedom Fighter to True Liberation is her memoir.
