    Music As Sound, Music As Archive: Performing Creolization in Trinidad

    Middle Atlantic Review of Latin American Studies, 2020 Vol. 4, No. 2, 144-173 Music as Sound, Music as Archive: Performing Creolization in Trinidad Christopher L. Ballengee Anne Arundel Communtiy College, Maryland [email protected] This article positions performance as a key concept in understanding creolization. In doing so, it situates music as both sound and archive in analyses of Trinidadian tassa drumming, soca, and chutney-soca. Musical analysis provides useful insights into the processes of creolization, while revealing colonial and postcolonial relationships between groups of people that give shape and meaning to the music, past and present. I draw on notions of music as sound to further analyze the forces that work to control the Trinidadian soundscape by promoting or marginalizing musical styles in an effort to shape musical production according to the ideal of creole culture. I conclude by suggesting that the conventional notion of the archive has from its very beginnings been connected with elite desires to enumerate and historicize positions of power. In this context, musical performances analyzed in this study emerge as subaltern archival practices that run alongside mainstream archives and popular interpretations of history. In listening to Trinidadian music as sound and archive, I trace present and potential social structures while providing new ways of thinking about creolization as performance. Keywords: Indian Caribbean, tassa, soca, chutney-soca, creolization, performance Este artículo posiciona el performance como un concepto clave para entender la creolización. Al hacerlo, sitúa la música como sonido y archivo en los análisis del tamborileo tassa, la soca y la soca-chutney de Trinidad.

    The Use of Food and Diet to Manage and Control Type 2 Diabetes in South Trinidad: Intersections of Contemporary Medicine, Folk Medicine, and Every Day Experience

    The Use of Food and Diet to Manage and Control Type 2 Diabetes in South Trinidad: Intersections of Contemporary Medicine, Folk Medicine, and Every Day Experience by Chantelle Ramsundar A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Public Issues Anthropology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Chantelle Ramsundar, March 2018 i ABSTRACT THE USE OF FOOD AND DIET TO MANAGE AND CONTROL TYPE 2 DIABETES IN SOUTH TRINIDAD: INTERSECTIONS OF CONTEMPORARY MEDICINE, FOLK MEDICINE, AND EVERY DAY EXPERIENCE Chantelle Ramsundar Advisor: University of Guelph, 2018 Dr. Elizabeth Finnis Committee member: Dr. Hannah Tait Neufeld In this thesis, I examine how type 2 diabetes is managed and treated globally in a country defined as an “emerging economy”. In areas of new development, while contemporary medical treatments are more universally accepted, such as prescribed medication, folk medical treatments can still be more accessible to specific areas. Foods, and access, are important variables to take into consideration when discussing the treatment of type 2 diabetes, thus making it a focus of my argument. I argue that the conceptualization of diabetes in Southern Trinidad is influenced by folk beliefs of disease and the human body, and that conversely, the treatment measures provided to those who are diagnosed are reflective of North American ideas of prescription medication and treatment (such as diet and exercise). What this does is create a dissonance between what is “good” versus “bad” for the human body, with variables attached to identity at the centre of the conflict such as gender, culture, food, and memories.
