Something I think should be in our media and a part of early school’s history classes .

“Canboulay is a celebration of resistance and emancipation which re-enacted the days when enslaved Africans were driven with cracking whips to put out fire on sugarcane plantations.”

We are a people that have a powerful history.

Carnival is not evil. It is not “devil thing” .

It is a part of our rich heritage … it speaks to the freedom we all fight for & a celebration of how far we’ve come.

Fort King George (Tobago) was built by the British in the late 18th century. The fort was named after King George III and it served as a strategic military base for the British during their control of Tobago.  Today, it is a popular tourist attraction.

Dr. Eric Williams started in a way which to my mind is unique in the history of Caribbean politics. He started with an intensive and quite exhausting campaign of popular education. He turned history, the history of the Caribbean, into gossip so that the story of a people's predicament seemed no longer the infinite barren track of documents, dates and texts. Everything became news: slavery, colonization, the forgivable deception of metropolitan rule, the sad and inevitable unawareness of native production. His lectures retained always the character of whisper which everyone was allowed to hear, a rumor which experience had established as truth. And whatever misgivings we may have about the ultimate value of popular education, this undertaking, it seems to me, has become an achievement of genius on the part of a teacher. No other West Indian politician has exposed himself so consistently to the gravest of all political risks: the risk of refusing to talk down to an electorate. He distinguished very early and quite clearly between formal education, which is often wasteful, and native intelligence: and having done that, he worked on the native intelligence by demanding at all times an adult attention and response to his lectures. This was an example, probably the first of its kind in our part of the world, of the teacher, in the noblest sense of teacher, turned politician, and of the politician, in the truly moral sense of politician, turned teacher. So when he visited Jamaica shortly after the formation of the People's National Movement to consult with Norman Manley, they were astonished and amused by the authority of tone with which he spoke about his plans for Trinidad and Tobago. One member of the Manley family told me: "We thought him a bit cracked to be talking as a Government with a party of a few months old and about to face its first election. In Jamaica it took the People's National Party some twelve years before we won our first election." In the euphoria of success which had marked his sojourn to Oxford University, Williams made no distinction between dream and reality; indeed he may have unconsciously embraced the belief that dream was the foundation of reality.

Enslaved Muslim Scholars Of The Caribbean

“Indian ancestors were instrumental in propagating the recreational, medicinal, and spiritual usage of marijuana in the Caribbean. They played such an important role that weed is still known today by the Hindustani name “ganja”.”

“Indentured labourers brought their preferred instrument to smoke ganja — the “chillum”, a clay pipe which functions as a hookah bowl for more handheld use. In Jamaica, the way dreadlocked Hindu “sadhus” or holy men incorporated ganja into their worship of Lord Shiva had a major impact on the Rastafari movement.”
