Simply stated, Dominica is picturesque. A diver’s dream and a hiker’s paradise, Dominica in its unspoiled beauty is unlike any other Caribbean destination. Known as “The Nature Island,” tropical rainforests cover more than two thirds of the island, offering a home to more than 1,200 plant species. It is one of the geologically youngest islands in the Caribbean chain and still evolving with continuous geothermal activity. The island’s volcanic landscape consists of extremely rugged, mountainous terrain. It is home to the highest concentration of volcanoes on the planet; there are nine potentially active volcanoes on the island. Boiling Lake, the world’s second-largest hot spring can be found here. The climate is spring-like; the sun is either shining or it is raining. A day doesn’t go by where one doesn’t see a rainbow. 2 3 Dominica is an island of unsurpassed natural beauty with warm, friendly people. It is 290 square miles in size, and is populated by just over 72,000 people. 365 rivers LOCATION interlace the forests; there are a multitude of waterfalls, some falling hundreds of feet.

Received: 13 May 2020; Accepted: 15 July 2020; Published: date Abstract: Potyviruses are the largest group of plant infecting RNA viruses that cause significant losses in a wide range of crops across the globe. The majority of viruses in the genus Potyvirus are transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent, non-circulative manner and have been extensively studied vis-à-vis their structure, taxonomy, evolution, diagnosis, transmission and molecular interactions with hosts. This comprehensive review exclusively discusses potyviruses and their transmission by aphid vectors, specifically in the light of several virus, aphid and plant factors, and how their interplay influences potyviral binding in aphids, aphid behavior and fitness, host plant biochemistry, virus epidemics, and transmission bottlenecks. We present the heatmap of the global distribution of potyvirus species, variation in the potyviral coat protein gene, and top aphid vectors of potyviruses. Lastly, we examine how the fundamental understanding of these multi-partite interactions through multi-omics approaches is already contributing to, and can have future implications for, devising effective and sustainable management strategies against aphid- transmitted potyviruses to global agriculture.

  • The Sociolinguistic Transformation of New York and Miami by Haitian Immigrants by Flore Zéphir, University of Missouri-Columbia
    A Tale of Two Cities: The Sociolinguistic Transformation of New York and Miami by Haitian Immigrants by Flore Zéphir, University of Missouri-Columbia Haitian immigrants certainly constitute a very visible segment of contemporary American society. This visibility is due to the fact that they have been steadily migrating in significant numbers to the United States since the late 1950s—early 1960s, soon after François Duvalier (“Papa Doc”) became president of Haiti. The political repression that characterized the Duvalier period forced large numbers of Haitians to seek safer harbor in the United States. Sustained political oppression, economic hardship, and lack of opportunity continued to drive contingents of Haitian immigrants out of their homeland all throughout the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s (Zéphir 1996, 2001; Catanese 1999). In fact, Haitian immigration persists to the present day, as evidenced in the numerous reports of major news networks, such as those of CNN or the New York Times, about the boat people disembarking on the Florida shores as recently as October 2002.1 The combination of push and pull factors led Haitians to cross the Caribbean Sea, by plane or by boat, legally or illegally, in order to reach the shores of America, the perceived land of opportunity, to begin new lives. An examination of the records of the Census Bureau as well as those of the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) allows for reasonable inferences about the size of the legal Haitian population currently residing in the United States.2 However, estimates provided by community leaders who offer assistance to the illegal population as well suggest that the actual number of the Haitian diaspora is higher than that recorded in government documents.

  • Haiti Is a Sliding Land: Displacement, Community, and Humanitarianism in Post-Earthquake Port-Au-Prince
    HAITI IS A SLIDING LAND: DISPLACEMENT, COMMUNITY, AND HUMANITARIANISM IN POST-EARTHQUAKE PORT-AU-PRINCE Laura Rose Wagner A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Anthropology Department at the University of North Carolina. Chapel Hill 2014 Approved by: Peter Redfield Laurent Dubois Charles Price Michele Rivkin-Fish Merrill Singer Karla Slocum © 2014 Laura Rose Wagner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Laura Wagner: Haiti is a Sliding Land: Displacement, Community, and Humanitarianism in Post-Earthquake Port-au-Prince (Under the direction of Peter Redfield) A Haitian proverb suggests that the country has long been a sliding land, a site of uncertainty and chronic catastrophe. On January 12, 2010, Haiti collapsed suddenly into sudden, telegenic disaster when a devastating earthquake hit its capital, Port-au-Prince, killing hundreds of thousands of people and destroying much of the city. The disaster both gave rise to an unprecedented urban displacement crisis, and engendered the promise of humanitarian and reconstruction aid and a flow of moral sentiment. Yet the earthquake and its aftermath were but the most striking manifestations of centuries-long patterns of vulnerability, life under an aid economy, and displacement. Even before the earthquake, Haiti was infamously known as the "republic of NGOs", while the history of slavery, uprooting, revolution, internal migration, and exile shaped Haitian people’s conceptions of home and community. Despite – and because of – Haiti’s long history of foreign intervention and the initial appeal to “save Haiti” in the wake of the 2010 earthquake, the post-disaster humanitarian effort has been regarded by Haitians, non-Haitian aid workers, and the media alike as an unequivocal failure.

Guadeloupe is a department of France, yet offers a case study that clearly runs counter to Herderian ideas of isomorphic identities—that French people live in France, speak French, and “have” French culture. The negotiation of a multi-layered identity is in part based on the fact that music (compas, zouk, and gwo-ka) and language (Guadeloupean Creole) are championed as non- French cultural artifacts, carrying symbolic weight that affirmins more localized aspects of cultural and political identity. Matters are complicated as Guadeloupeans assert a pan-Caribbean identity through common language, orthography, musical traditions, and a shared perception of sameness. Despite the wide range of cultural practices of members in the region, Guadeloupeans are able to conceptualize a community based upon cultural indexes such as music consumption and language use.

Pwofite ètT Ou”(Avail YOourself): The Minoritarian Politics of Haitian Music in Paris Abstract Paris functions as a diverse site in which Haitians and French Antilleans come together most significantly in relation to musical interaction. Haitian music in Paris, especially konpa, is frequently paired with Antillean music, specifically zouk, whether it be on the radio, as Antillean stations frequently co-opt konpa or in dance clubs for deejayed events. Thus, konpa and zouk share modes of dissemination and consumption, and are frequently grouped together. These mutually shared spaces of musical consumption enable and promote the formation of connections between Antillean and Haitian communities, enabled by a minoritarian politics rooted in shared colonial histories and coupled with strict contemporary stratifications that are challenged by musical taste. This dissertation explains how the musical results of these interactions, histories, and relationships are distinctly Haitian, but transnational, complicated, and evocative of a new understanding of postcolonial relation in the Caribbean diaspora.

    CARIMI Dossier de Presse CA - Carlo Vieux Date de naissance : 13 Septembre 1977 Carlo Vieux a commencé dans la musique à 13 ans, quand sa mère l’a inscrit pour des cours de piano. Il forme tout de suite le groupe Tic-Tac avec un ami d’enfance, puis décide, après avoir admiré son idole Fabrice Rouzier (producteur du fameux Haï- tian Troubadours ) d’être membre de Kdans, ou il eut finalement l’opportunité de jouer dans un groupe « live ». « Cette période m’a beaucoup marqué » dit-il. Il a eu l’occasion d’accompagner Jean-Michel Rotin durant une tournée aux USA et a développé son autre talent en qualité de chanteur. Il a dû quitter après 4 ans pour poursuivre ses études aux Etats-Unis, New York plus précisément. RI - Richard Cave Date de naissance : 05 Décembre 1976 Dès l’âge de 3 ans, Richard Cavé chantait déjà avec son père, un talent très commun dans cette famille. Il a commencé à jouer au pi- ano à 9 ans quand son père lui acheta son premier keyboard, mais qu’il lui enleva quand il remarqua que ses études étaient affec- tées, comme c’est un passionné de ce qu’il fait. Alors, il continua, en douce, à faire de la musique et aida même le groupe Kdans à réaliser leur premier album. Il bosse avec le groupe Papash, co- produit avec son cousin Alan Cavé, du groupe Zin, le tube « Chéri Mennen’m Ale », compose les plus gros tubes du groupe King Posse dont il était membre, puis une fois encore avec Kdans sur leur 2ème album sur le titre « Valérie » « C’est trop marrant, mon père adorait ces morceaux mais ne savait pas que c’était moi qui les produisais ! » Après ces succès-la, il part faire ses études, lui aussi à New York.
