BASSETERRE (Friday 4th December 2020) — Well-known public figure and social activist 30-year-old De-Syl Hamilton of Nevis is using his outspoken ways to bring action-oriented attention to sexual violence against women and children, and to call for a sex offender registry law in St. Kitts-Nevis. Hamilton has been holding weekly protests outside Premier Brantley’s ministry, holding placards with the words “PROTECT OUR WOMEN + CHIRREN.” “In our culture, we often stop and fall short of acting and I want to be the change I want to see in society,” he said. He is working with the Caribbean Committee Against Sex Crimes (CCASC) in Trinidad to push for all CARICOM countries to work on a regional sex offender registry.
