    Jamaica’s First Corrupted Politician

    In conversations around Jamaicans' distrust in the island's political system, there is the recurring theme of political corruption. So to understand the root of political corruption on the island, it seems to fit to look at the historic court case involving J.Z. Malcolm, who in 1952 became the first politician in Jamaica to be found guilty on fraud charges.

    The Censorship Years of Comrade Ralph

    Since scholarship on the topic discussed is limited, a large portion of the details heard on this episode was taken from “The Making of ‘The Comrade’: The Political Journey of Ralph Gonsalves" by Ralph Gonsalves Today, Dr. Ralph Gonsalves is the one of the longest serving head of government in Caribbean history. As of this episode recording, he is the current prime minister of St.Vincent and the Grenadines - a post he has held since 2001. Beloved throughout the region, he has affectionately called Uncle Ralph and Comrade Ralph. But back in the 1970’s, this affection was non-existent as he was persona non-grata throughout the Eastern Caribbean.

  6. Everyone Except Haitians

    20/02/2025

    Everyone Except Haitians

    Content Warning: this episode contains discussion of physical abuse, racism and xenophobia. In the wake of certain events occurring across the region, thousands of West Indians emigrated or sought refugees status to the United States by the 1970s. Still, it would be the newly arrived Haitians and Haitian refugees that faced the most prejudice. And even though one rap group would emerge in the 1990s to address this anti-immigrant and anti-black discrimination, anti-Haitian rhetoric in the U.S. has never really gone away.
