    In the film “Sugar Cane Alley” by Euzhan Palcy, Jose the main character is an intelligent young boy who understands the racial divisions in Martinique. As a black boy he witnesses how his people live, in a small village where they all work cutting canes and barely earn a living. Meanwhile the white planters produced immense wealth and lived a life of comfort and prosperity. The black workers are often short on money when they buy food and the planters fined them for the smallest infractions. At a very young age Jose understood that the color of one’s skin defined your position in society, basically the lighter the shade the higher the rank in the social ladder. He noticed this with his mulatto friend Leopold whose father was a white planter and his mother a black woman. Leopold had better life chances than the rest of the black kids because of his background but his only problem was that he could not inherit his father’s last name. The reason being that the white people feared the mulattos climbing up the social ladder and eventually having black people in that higher social class.…

    Slave based societies in the Caribbean developed according to selections from “The Caribbean: The Genesis of a Fragmented Nationalism” slowly as a result of the equal participation of both the masters and the slaves. Usually the color of one’s skin quickly determined which social group and what your occupation would be with of course the darker you are the lower your status and the lighter the higher. Eventually the Africans and whites started to mix and so did the color of the children which made them “not-so-good” field workers. The slaves of mixed race usually were craftier with the domestic, skilled, and artisanal trades. The Caribbean tended to be pretty urban throughout.…

    Let me begin by saying while living in one of the Caribbean countries, there are many issues the Caribbean faced with. Since our islands were all colonies at once before we gain independency. These issues are discussed in articles,books and songs. However as these are discussed it is in my benefit to know about these Caribbean problems as I am part of the Caribbean culture. My goal in this paper is to bring applicability with a song sang by ‘Buju Banton’ called Untold Stories in 1995 from the album called “Til Shiloh”. The song relates to contemporary social commentary in the Caribbean. Social commentary is define as expressing how one feels about a certain aspect or nature of society.1…

    Challenges in the Caribbean

    • 3215 Words
    • 13 Pages

    The Caribbean is known to be a place that has been colonized, changed and heavily influenced. Upon the arrival of the Europeans, the Caribbean lifestyle was affected and changed forever. Along with the arrival of the European settlers, many of their values, customs and traditions were brought over. The peoples of the Caribbean countries that were brought over had roots tying back to Africa, China, India and Portugal. These groups of people were colonized by three of the most powerful countries in the world; Great Britain, Spain and France left such a big impact on the colonized countries that much of their influence is present in the Caribbean today (Hernandez-Ramdwar, Lecture, Oct. 10 2005). As many Caribbean countries have gained their independence from the colonizers, their influence on the Caribbean culture, traditions and societies is yet to be freed (Hernandez-Ramdwar, Lecture, Oct. 10 2005). As many historical events took place in the Caribbean, the social construction of the Caribbean lifestyle was altered. These social constructions involve the concept of a patriarchal society because they were challenged by structural functionalists ' views and perceptions. As patriarchy faced many challenges in the Caribbean, so did the other social constructions that were affiliated with it. Matrifocality, constructions of masculinity and patriarchy are all reforms of the Caribbean society. Without the co-existence of one social reform, the others would not be able to exist. Thus, it can be stated that the relationship between matrifocality, constructions of masculinity and patriarchy in the Caribbean is that they all are interrelated and allow each other to exist; without the dependence and influence of one another, these social reforms would not have much significance to the Caribbean society.…
