      flesch: 66
     summary: I would say that the very fact that celebrations of Caribbean culture have become mainstreamed and commercialized undermines that project of passing on cultural values to second generation immigrants. Reis contends that “the region is actually composed of a plethora of diasporas,” making Caribbean immigrants living in the West “twice diasporised” - first from Africa (and other regions) to the islands of the Caribbean and then from the Caribbean to Europe and North America (Reis 2006, 46-47).

     summary: While in Jane Eyre Bertha’s death is as marginal as her existence, with the sole purpose of clearing the way for Jane’s and Rochester’s marriage, in Wide Sargasso Sea, death represents Antoinette’s salvation from her colonial relationship with Rochester. In Wide Sargasso Sea Rochester describes Antoinette as “Creole of pure English descent” but “not English or European” (Rhys 56).

The foreground and background share an intrinsic correlation, contrasting the way in which Caribbean reality is juxtaposed to the tourist's ideal.

     summary: If indentured labour can be read as a cloaked “slavery,” then, as this paper has argued, migrant labour certainly can be read as a continuation of indentureship. This paper will argue that indentured labour, though non- existent in the Caribbean today and less apparent in the rest of the world, continues structurally in the form of migrant labour.

     summary: “1947 onwards marked racial integration in American baseball with players such as Jackie Robinson and Larry Doby opening up the field of organized baseball for Latin American players.” Sugar intensely captures the narrow, burdensome path baseball creates into the Western world for Dominican players, the struggle of adjusting to American culture and the ever- looming machine of the MLB that commodifies Latin American and Caribbean players.28 Accustomed to racially inclusive leagues in the Caribbean and Latin America, players who migrated to American baseball were largely unprepared for the level of discrimination and racism entrenched in American society.

     summary: The primary motive for Caribbean migration has been the intent to improve economic circumstances, therefore migration out of the region persists when the perception of opportunities abroad outweigh the real opportunities at home.1 Migration rates from the Caribbean remain high and are steadily rising which indicates that the crumbling economic and social structures which sustain such rates continue to degrade.2 As a result, Caribbean countries continue to experience the loss of highly skilled men and women to more industrialized parts of the world. The United Kingdom had been the traditional recipient of Caribbean migrants from 1948, but political shifts in Britain restricted Caribbean migration in the 1960s.

     summary: Compounding these protection failures was the actual introduction of cholera into the country by MINUSTAH troops, the subsequent cover-up, failure to investigate, and lack of proper response to the growing epidemic.xviii Counter to its mandate to assist in free and fair elections, MINUSTAH also played a role in propping up a U.S.-supported but illegitimate presidential election which oversaw the exclusion of a majority political party and a large part of the population.xix In addition to these main areas of concentration are a number of other issues related to MINUSTAH’s involvement in Haiti. By April, at the request of interim President Alexandre Boniface, the UNSC established the Mission des Nations Unies pour la stabilisation en Haiti (MINUSTAH), which included the deployment of 6,700 CARIBBEAN QUILT | 2012 50 soldiers.

This essay will argue that Maroon societies acted as an entity of defiance against slave communities, even though intricate organizational structures had an atypical symbiotic relationship with them.

     summary: In his book Behind the smile: The working lives of Caribbean tourism, George Gmelch suggests that tourism “reawakens memories of the colonial past and so perpetuates resentments and antagonisms.” Mullings in her article Caribbean tourism: trouble in paradise? suggests that since “the islands could not finance tourism projects without diverting resources away from the other sectors that were also being developed,” Caribbean governments would have to depend on foreign investment to build hotels and infrastructure.

     summary: Given the superior power of MNCs to control capital flows and exploit markets in the international arena, it is unrealistic to suppose that Jamaica would have easily developed an independent competitive aluminum industry.24 It can be argued that MNCs have provided capital, expertise, and markets for the exploitation of Jamaican bauxite more efficiently than could an independent effort by the Jamaican government or private Jamaican entrepreneurs. Based on the data for 1950-1967, it was calculated that a lack of forward linkages resulted in 95% of the gross value generated from Jamaican bauxite being accrued abroad rather than domestically.40 The wages received by bauxite workers in Jamaica did not compare to their counterparts in metropolitan countries, yet they were still substantially higher than in other sectors of the Jamaican economy.

This will be followed by an examination of the Haitian state in theoretical context, which will outline the impediments to future leftist governance in Haiti proposing the development of political strategies aside from the pursuit of state power.

     summary: Their financial independence meant that there was a greater tendency for them to participate in the market economy as autonomous agents giving them more freedom than their rural counterparts.11 Since powerful white men dominated the centre of the urban economy, many white women operated on the periphery as owners and managers of taverns, sex-houses, and slave rental services.12 While the urban economy provided white women with greater independence in a society based on patriarchal power, it could also work to further subjugate women of colour. The concerns articulated by Lewis do not appear to be unusual indicating that slave women did in fact play an important role in resisting their enslavement.

     summary: In the 1930s alone, approximately 38,000 laborers were forcefully repatriated to Haiti, being given no time to sell or gather their assets.12 It is worth noting that the Communist Party of Cuba, which would later ally itself with Haitian communists, opposed these anti-immigration and specifically anti- Haitian measures.13 Today, Haitian culture and language still has a deep influence on the province of Guantanamo, which “has been historically the most important region for Haitian residents”.14 MONICA ESPAILLAT LIZARDO| CUBA AND HAITI 21 Kreyòl library was opened in Havana, attesting to the huge impact Haiti and Haitians have made on Cuba.17 Cuba’s acceptance and elevation of Haitian culture within its own borders seems at odds with its earlier policies of population whitening.

       words: 3091
      flesch: 54
     summary: In this paper I will study the emergence and evolution of the Dominican sugar plantations—and their employment of migrant labor—in order to delineate the reasons that led to Haitian migration to the Dominican Republic. Firstly, I will investigate different scholarly explanations on migration in the Caribbean; secondly, I will describe how the Dominican ingenio evolved; and finally, I will compare the migration theories with the economic development of the Dominican sugar industry in order to discern the possible causes of Haitian migration to the Dominican Republic during the early Twentieth century.

     summary: 440-441) Puerto Rican women have consistently constituted the highest prevalence of sterilized women in the world.1 Many scholars question whether or not a negative eugenics campaign has been waged on the island by U.S. and Puerto Rican biomedical researchers, scientists, and public health officials in order to reduce and even potentially eliminate the Puerto Rican population,2 a 1 Bonnie Mass, “Puerto Rico: A Case Study of Population Control,” Latin American Perspectives, Issue 15, Vol. IV, No. 4 (Fall 1977):78. A great number of Puerto Rican women had been sterilized to serve the needs of industry in Puerto Rico, and their wombs too were now bereft.

     summary: Perhaps if there were a departure from the practice of measuring dancehall women and their willingness to sexually express themselves in reference to European women, then the point of contention would become less rigid. This dichotomy also renders observers unable to appreciate working class women actively creating a space where they are seen and heard in Jamaica’s post-independent atmosphere.

     summary: Homophobic violence in Jamaica does deserve international attention but the trajectory of violence and homophobia must be analyzed responsibly.

     summary: The limited amount of resources available to Caribbean security forces is another major roadblock for making the region a safer place. It is puzzling that such claims are made about a region that is statically considered to be the most violent and dangerous in the world due to skyrocketing crime rates in certain countries, specifically Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, and Guyana.

     summary: The Charter was designed to grant Surinam and the Netherlands Antilles the rights to self-government while also remain part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.14 The Charter defined foreign affairs, defense, citizenship, and safeguarding proper governmental administration as matters of interest that would be governed by the Kingdom.15 With final authority over these affairs, the Netherlands believed that they were ensuring good governance and fundamental human rights in the Netherlands Antilles and Surinam.16 Paul Sutton lists that good governance is recognized as having a “broad range of concerns focused on open, transparent and accountable government; efficient, effective and responsive administration; and respect for human rights and law.”17 Unlike Surinam, the option for political independence for Netherlands Antilles has never been popular.

It is therefore more difficult to define a normative Bahamian while the race of afro- Haitians in The Bahamas can easily be described as a group of people bound by the elements of slavery, racism and revolution in Saint-Domingue, political instability in Haiti and the formation of a diasporic group.

        date: 2022

     summary: Rhonda Reddock further argues that the contempt for marriage among slave women was because “it meant extra work and being confined to one man” when both men and women often maintained multiple relation- ships. From that point on, Anglo-Caribbean plantocra- cies demonstrated significant interest in enslaved women’s reproductive labour to manage slave demographics but enslaved women often defied their masters to exert control over their reproductive capacities in “gynecological revolt” This essay examines sources centred on Jamaica to argue that the wombs of enslaved women in the Anglo-Caribbean colonies were sites of colonial domination as slaveowners, abolitionists, and the imperial government fought to control it but were also sites of “gynecological revolt” as women exerted control over their sexuality, pregnancy, childbirth experience, and child-rearing process.

     summary: The case of Puerto Ricans is no different and beyond collective organization, island- ers in the diaspora went further in redefining the very criteria of Puerto Rican identity. These localities of cultural change served as critical bases for securing the rights for diasporic communi- ties, transforming hegemonic ideologies of Puerto Rican identity, and exploring the tensions at the heart of the livelihoods of migrants.

     summary: Many of the strengths of the political experiment in Grenada can be identified in the first few years following the formation of the PRG government (led by NJM members and Bishop as Prime Minister), where revolutionary spirits were high and people’s political participation was in full force. Alongside raising the political morale of the people, the PRG government allocated considerable time, effort and investment into transforming Grenada’s education system.

     summary: By this point, Caribbean Hindu traditions and culture had drifted far from its ancestral plane despite Brahmin intervention. This essay seeks to contextualize Hinduism in the Caribbean from the 19th century onward, considering factors that have led to the evolution of Caribbean Hinduism in Guyana and Trinidad & Tobago, while acknowledg- ing the dangers of using this evolution to define the religion as a whole.

     summary: This is indicative of beauty standards in Borinquen since consuming Miss Puerto Rico and Miss Universe is extremely important to Puerto Ricans; because the island is 4th in the world—af- ter The Philippines, the United States, and Venezuela— for the most Miss Universe titles, winning the pageant is paramount. Meanwhile, in Puerto Rico, Miss Puerto Rico 2018—Ki- ara Ortega—was only “the third woman with noticeably mixed (African and Indigenous) features to win Miss Universe Puerto Rico after Alba Reyes in 2004 and Zuleyka Rivera in 2006.”

     summary: Thus, it is a reminder of the ways in which the subject of reparations stays ever-pres- ent in modern discourses where relation- ships from slavery and colonization are widely identifiable. 5 4 The historical events of colonial slavery were undeniably tragic; however, repara- tions discourse also looks to ending the “continuing dispossession” of the oppressed communities colonial systems created.

     summary: Some people did question the legitimacy of the exhibit, but most people believed its content because historically, people being presented in cages is something that Western countries have done many times before. The performance, The Couple in the Cage: A Guatinaui Odyssey, addresses notions of authenticity by showcasing how the idea of the Other is presented to people throughout the world and how the story of the fictional characters was enough to convince many people that a new island and ‘type’ of people had been discovered.

By employing the intersecting identities of Low-Income and (un)documentation, this poem aims to deconstruct the stereotypical expectations of Canadian-Caribbean immigrants.

     summary: This paper will examine Jamaica under the Michael Manley government and Grenada under Maurice Bishop and the New Jewel Movement, arguing that reformist methods in the Global South, despite their tenden- cies toward upholding capitalistic institu- tions, are seen as being just as threatening as their revolutionary counterparts in the minds of Global North actors. Manley’s methods were not truly “revolutionary” in any meaning of the term – there would be no violent overthrowing of Jamaica’s economic order nor an ousting of Ameri- can and Global North influence from the island.

     summary: Democratic Socialism a Solution to Colonial Tourism Structures Kennedy-Jude Providence University of Toronto FAS Biology and Health and Disease/Caribbean Studies The Caribbean’s environmental diversity and tourism products have been a longstanding source of income leading many to argue that the detriments of tourism outweigh its beneficial, economic effects. Furthermore, while there are other prevalent issues that threaten tourism and have plagued the region for years including and not limited to pollution, environmen- tal degradation, climate change, crime and natural disasters, this analysis is simply intended to focus on identity, economy and the seemingly never-end- ing cycle of Western Imperialism threatening West Indian identity.

Many extinction narra- tives in Trinidad have been preserved through continued miscegenation between Indigenous communities and other ethnic groups, and through the localization of Indigenous groups to specific parts of Trinidad.

     summary: The super exploitation of Black women was an issue close to Jones’ heart likely because of her family’s experience of her mom dying at 37 from strenuous working conditions in a garment industry job. In the column, Jones recommended texts from authors around the world who were pursuing socialism, including books on women in China and the Soviet Union, ‘The Woman Question’ (which included ideas from Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin), and biographies of influential Black women, including Sojourner Truth and Harriet Tubman.

     summary: For many, food fulfils a nostal- gic desire for a lost homeland and makes Little Jamaica a liminal space between the homeland and the host land.9 Many community members described the food as a key- stone of cultural identity in the Caribbean diaspora. Drawing on interviews with community members and local activists, this essay examines how the Carib- bean community in Little Jamaica constructs cultural identity through food, highlighting a tension between authenticity and hybridity that exists within this cultural identity.

     summary: In the 1780s, when Haiti was the French colony of “Saint- Domingue,” it was the wealthiest colony in the world, pro- ducing nearly half of its sugar exports and a more signifi- cant proportion of its coffee.6 Losing Haiti was a blow that France did not wish to accept, and it spent several decades attempting to negotiate compensation for the “property” lost by its citizens in Haiti, which included both land and the formerly enslaved people.7 France and Haiti attempted negotiations for this compensation on multiple occasions under different regimes before King Charles X of France issued a virtual ultimatum in 1825.

     summary: Due to this fact, Guyana relied heavily on for- eign governments to maintain some form of balance, which allowed both countries to directly interfere with the racial tensions in Guyanese society and utilize them to change who the leader and party in power were.34 As Britain had monopolized racial tensions during the co- lonial era, it was not a surprise that they did it again in Guyana pre-independence by instigating the split of the original PPP party in the 1950s into an Indian party and an African party. Her Indo-Caribbean heritage has spurred her love for Caribbean history and instilled a desire to shed lights on the histories of the West Indies that are so often overlooked, specifically Guyana and Trinidad post-emancipation.

     summary: In light of this, black women have frequently been forced to create narratives and discourses through art, music, resistance and scholarship. Though the mani- festo of the first-wave feminist movement aimed to have society recognize that women are humans, not property, first-wave feminists contradicted their mandate and contin- ued to treat black women as property and not as humans.

     summary: My argument demonstrates the relevance of the Plantation Economy school of thought and some of the continued modern-day limitations on Guyana's economic growth and development. This paper examines the extent to which Plantation Economy scholarship can explain the current production structure of Guyana's extractive oil and mineral industries.

     summary: Finally, it calls for more decolonial perspectives and critical approaches to capitalist development that recognize and address the ongoing effects of colonial violence especially in Caribbean contexts. In ad- dition, the scholarship introduced provides some frame- work to identify and address the relationship between colonial violence and capitalist development, whether that be understood via.
