    Eulogy: Remembering "Norris Buzz Johnson" November 2 1951 to February 11, 2014 Memorial Service Saturday March 1st. 2014 at 1 pm All Saint's Church Haggerston Road Hackney London E8 4EP I recall Buzz gave me a birthday gift many years ago and it was a book entitled “Return to the Source” written by the late Amilcar Cabral. My words today will be in the form of a journey where I briefly return to the source of our brother’s foundations in Tobago and then Trinidad and the journey here to the UK and his growth and development and he will be making his final journey when the body returns to Tobago. Return to the Source: Norris Chrisleventon Johnson was the first and only son of Mrs Adwina Johnson nee Phillips and the late Cornelius Arthur Johnson. He was born in the fishing village of Buccoo in Tobago on November 2 1951. The family migrated to Fyzabad in South Trinidad, one of the villages that housed many workers from the oilfields in Point Fortin and its environs. His father Cornelius was on oilfield worker and was obviously influenced and inspired by a key political and labour activist and leader, Tubal Uriah Buzz Butler. He therefore called his son Buzz. That name has stuck with him ever since. The Fyzabad area was the main bastion of the Butlerite movement. Tubal Uriah Buzz Butler was a fierce defender of workers’ rights and earned his place in Trinidad and Tobago's history for his role during the turbulent days of June 1937. This was the period of the labour riots and the development of the trade union movement in Trinidad & Tobago and in particular of the Oilfield Workers Trade Union.

  • Narrating the Empire Windrush

    Narrating the Empire Windrush

    “Remember the ship”: Narrating the Empire Windrush Hannah Lowe Brunel University *Email: [email protected] Despite the ubiquity of the SS Empire Windrush as a symbol of postwar Caribbean migration to Britain, there are few literary evocations of its journey and arrival, and of those, the majority are literary commissions from 1998, the year in which the ship was to become legendary. The synthetic nature of the literary engagement with the ship confirms its own construction as an historical event made retrospectively famous. This article describes and interrogates the 1998 rise to prominence of the Windrush, before examining the relationship of the actual ship to literary/cultural criticism and literary works. It contends that the small body of poetic and fictional narratives about the Windrush both problematize elements of a dominant Windrush narrative while simultaneously confirming the ship’s primacy. Keywords: please add 6 Windrush, Caribbean migration, James Berry, Jackie Kay, Benjamin Zephaniah, John Agard In her short story “Out of Hand” (1998), Jackie Kay describes the Empire Windrush as a “huge fiction”, in reference to the history and arrival of that particular ship and its role in postwar Caribbean migration. Her revision of the iconic 1948 Pathé newsreel of the ship’s arrival (which had featured only male migrants) depicts a female protagonist, Rose, stepping from the ship on to British ground. The focus on Rose interjects a woman’s perspective into a historical narrative with a strong male bias, and Kay’s sense of the ship as a “fiction” is intricately tied to the false promise of the “mother country”, which rather than welcoming the young and optimistic Rose, subjects her to a battery of racism endured over decades.

    Statement by Sir Ronald Sanders at the Launch on “From Ranji to Rohan” by Professor Clem Seecharan at London Metropolitan University on 19Th November 2009

    Statement by Sir Ronald Sanders At the launch on “From Ranji to Rohan” by Professor Clem Seecharan at London Metropolitan University on 19th November 2009 Ladies and Gentlemen, Friends, It is a great pleasure to be at London Metropolitan University to help launch the latest book by Professor Clem Seecharan, From Ranji to Rohan. Like most West Indians, I am an avid cricket fan, but alas no great player myself. My cricketing days ended when, as a teenaged batsman, a rather large and extremely quick fast-bowler contrived to get past my bat to a most delicate part of my anatomy that floored me for several agonising minutes in the most excruciating pain I ever experienced. I put away bat, pads and other questionable paraphernalia after that along with my enthusiasm for playing cricket, but my passion for the game never waned. In that connection, I believe I was among the first people to buy, directly from Hansib, the publisher of this book, one of the first copies of “From Ranji to Rohan”. Two things attracted me to it. First, I knew from the experience of reading Clem Seecharan’s previous works that this would be not just a scholarly study based on authoritative research, but also a highly entertaining account of Cricket and Indian Identity in Colonial Guyana. The second attraction was its focus on the exploits of Rohan Kanhai, who was the cricket icon of my childhood and early teenage years. Somewhere amongst the aging and dusty collection of my family albums is a photograph of me trying to imitate that famous Kanhai shot on the cover of this book that one cricket commentator described as “the triumphant fall” - a sweep shot to the leg side that culminated in Kanhai on his back but the ball either racing to the boundary for four or soaring past it for six.

London, as Henry Swanzy the producer of the influential BBC Radio programme Caribbean Voices once aptly observed, had become a 'literary headquarters'. It had become a centre where writers from the various islands were meeting for the first time and attempted paradoxically perhaps after departure from the islands to establish a firm estW Indian cultural identity. It was also a time when over 40,000 West Indians emigrated to Britain in search of employment. Originally invited to the 'mother-country' by the post-war government as an attempt to solve the immediate labour crisis followmg the Second World War and commonly known as the 'Windrush generation', these islanders moved to Britain expectant to improve their standard of living.
