The Race Problem in the Caribbean
Herrick, Robert | June 18, 1924 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the race problem in the Caribbean area. It is only sixty miles from the English island of St. Lucia to Martinique, less than forty miles from Martinique to the English island of Dominica. Both these British islands retain positive indications of French influence, distinguishing them from Barbados or Antigua, which are purely English. The colored population of St. Lucia and Dominica understand and largely use among themselves a French patois and their folk literature betrays the contacts they have had with their immediate neighbors.
