Students explained their perceptions about sexuality and self esteem. Issues include sex education, sexual initiation and self love. Lack of sex education has impacted negatively, ranging from self worth and confidence issues to lifestyle challenges. Many still had difficulty in the key area of communicating their sexual needs to their partners. This article offers recommendations that strengthen positive attitudes towards the sexuality of Caribbean people, promoting individual sexual healing and community well-being. Keywords: sexuality, well-being, self esteem and risk taking behaviour Copyright © Sir Arthur Lewis Institute of Social and Economic Studies, UWI, (Cave Hill), 2010 2 Journal of Eastern Caribbean Studies Introduction In the Caribbean, sexuality seems to be something that men have and are free to explore, while women are expected to relate to it only defensively… women’s sexuality is still policed by social and gender conventions in ways that do not seem to constrain the behaviour of men. (Lewis 2004:7) This article explores the influence of power dynamics upon diverse gender and sexual representations, identities and relationships among undergraduate students at Mona Campus, University of the West Indies (UWI), Jamaica. The majority of the respondents were black women who described the discrepancies between their sexual awareness and practices. Sexuality refers to erotic identities, feelings and pleasures that are constructed by social factors such as gender, class, race and ethnic diversity (Vance 1984; Mohammed 1992). Through questionnaire surveys, the impact of cultural, religious and moral expectations on sexual experiences is discussed. The responses consider conventional sexist attitudes about

The making of the British Jazz Avant-Garde: 1968-1973 Introduction: Making British Jazz ... and Race In 1968 the Arts Council of Great Britain (ACGB), the quasi-governmental agency responsible for providing public support for the arts, formed its first ‘Jazz Sub-Committee’. Its main business was to allocate bursaries usually consisting of no more than a few hundred pounds to jazz composers and musicians. The principal stipulation was that awards be used to develop creative activity that might not otherwise attract commercial support. Bassist, composer and bandleader Graham Collier was the first recipient – he received £500 to support his work on what became the Workpoints composition. In the early years of the scheme, further beneficiaries included Ian Carr, Mike Gibbs, Tony Oxley, Keith Tippett, Mike Taylor, Evan Parker and Mike Westbrook – all prominent members of what was seen as a new, emergent and distinctively British avant-garde jazz scene. Our point of departure in this chapter is that what might otherwise be regarded as a bureaucratic footnote in the annals of the ACGB was actually a crucial moment in the history of British jazz.

  • Varsity Jazz
    Varsity Jazz Jazz at Reading University 1951 - 1984 By Trevor Bannister 1 VARSITY JAZZ Jazz at Reading University 1951 represented an important year for Reading University and for Reading’s local jazz scene. The appearance of Humphrey Lyttelton’s Band at the University Rag Ball, held at the Town Hall on 28th February, marked the first time a true product of the Revivalist jazz movement had played in the town. That it should be the Lyttelton band, Britain’s pre-eminent group of the time, led by the ex-Etonian and Grenadier Guardsman, Humphrey Lyttelton, made the event doubly important. Barely three days later, on 3rd March, the University Rag Committee presented a second event at the Town Hall. The Jazz Jamboree featured the Magnolia Jazz Band led by another trumpeter fast making a name for himself, the colourful Mick Mulligan. It would be the first of his many visits to Reading. Denny Dyson provided the vocals and the Yew Tree Jazz Band were on hand for interval support. There is no further mention of jazz activity at the university in the pages of the Reading Standard until 1956, when the clarinettist Sid Phillips led his acclaimed touring and broadcasting band on stage at the Town Hall for the Rag Ball on 25th February, supported by Len Lacy and His Sweet Band. Considering the intense animosity between the respective followers of traditional and modern jazz, which sometimes reached venomous extremes, the Rag Committee took a brave decision in 1958 to book exponents of the opposing schools. The Rag Ball at the Olympia Ballroom on 20th February, saw Ken Colyer’s Jazz Band, which followed the zealous path of its leader in keeping rigidly to the disciplines of New Orleans jazz, sharing the stage with the much cooler and sophisticated sounds of a quartet led by Tommy Whittle, a tenor saxophonist noted for his work with the Ted Heath Orchestra.

  • Global Governance, Poverty and Inequality
    Global Governance, Poverty and Inequality In the first decade of the twenty-first century the world experienced a series of crises that have combined to exacerbate already profound conditions of global economic inequality and poverty in the world’s poorest countries. In 2007, the unsound lending practices that caused a collapse in the US housing market ushered in a broader economic crisis that reverberated throughout the global financial system. This economic shockwave had a global impact, triggering not just instability in other industrialized countries, but also in their developing counter- parts, also highlighting deficiencies in the current structures of global governance to protect the world’s poorest and most disadvantaged. In these times of crisis, it is important to question the capacity and the appropriateness of existing global governance approaches to address both poverty and inequality. This work seeks to critically evaluate the role of global governance mechanisms for dealing with these pressing issues. With a focus on both formal and informal governance mechan- isms, and drawing leading scholars together from a range of disciplines, this collection offers sharp analyses of the successes and failures of the global system in tackling the pressing problems of poverty and inequality. Jennifer Clapp is the Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI) Chair in Global Environmental Governance and Professor in the Faculty of Environmental Studies at the University of Waterloo, Canada.

  • Ecotourism in a Small Caribbean Island: Lessons Learned for Economic Development and Nature Preservation
    ECOTOURISM IN A SMALL CARBBEAN ISLAND: LESSONS LEARNED FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND NATURE PRESERVATION l By VANESSA ANNE VERE SLINGER A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2002 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The Program for Studies in Tropical Conservation Fellowship (PSTC) supported this research through the Compton Foundation, and a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences McLaughlin Dissertation Fellowship. Government agencies in Dominica helped throughout the period of research including NDC, the Dominican Ministry of Tourism, and the Dominican Ministry of Forestry. The DCA, and the DHTA were very helpful in providing data and suggestions. Numerous individuals aided and supported my research efforts in Dominica: the Aird family, Maria Bellot, the Grell family, Lenox Honychurch, Ma Bass, and Charles Maynard. I am particularly indebted to all the people involved in the tourism industry, both in private businesses and local conservation agencies, who took time to sit with me and answer questions or converse about tourism on the majestic and beautiful Caribbean island of Dominica. On a personal note, I am truly blessed to be surrounded by the love and encouragement of lots of friends and family too numerous to mention here. Last, but certainly not least, I would like to thank my committee members for their guidance and support: my chair. Dr. Nigel Smith, Dr. Cesar Caviedes, Dr. Barbara McDade, Dr. Hugh Popenoe, and Dr. Peter Hildebrand. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Edward Malecki for his support and advice in several aspects of my academic career.

How many of the scholars we solicited answered that the unexpected demands of remote teach- ing, or the obligations of home schooling, or any other unusual responsibilities caused by Covid-19 made it impossible for them to write a review? And how many reviewers balked at (while others kindly acquiesced to) the new practice of many publishers sending out review copies exclusively in digital form? Another indicator of Covid-inspired chaos in the publishing industry?When we asked Palgrave/Springer (which publishes more of the books we review than any other publisher) to send a book, scheduled for July 2020 publication, to our reviewer, the following reply came back: “Unfortunately, … Decoloniality and Gender in Jamaica Kincaid and Gisèle Pineau, seems to have been massively postponed; the publication date appears to be 31 May 2025.” Publishers, with warehouses closed, or open only sporadically, have gener- ally done their best but here’s a list of books that we requested (almost all for Bookshelf) but never received: Nous n’avons pas vu passer les jours, by Simone Schwarz-Bart & Yann Plougastel (Paris: Grasset, 2019, paper €19.00) La Souvenance, by Ernest Pépin (Petit-Bourg, Guadeloupe: Caraïbéditions, 2019, paper €17.30) My Time Among the Whites: Notes from an Unfinished Education, by Jennine Capó Crucet (New York: Picador, 2019, paper US$17.00) Ordinary Girls: A Memoir, by Jaquira Díaz (New York: Algonquin Books, 2019, cloth US$26.95) Saint X: A Novel, by Alexis Schaitkin (New York: Celadon Books, 2020, cloth US$26.99) Shame on Me: An Anatomy of Race and Belonging, byTessa McWatt (London: Scribe UK, 2019, paper US$17.13) Bla_k:EssaysandInterviews, by M.

  • Gender Transformations in the Trinidad Carnival Author Uses the Presence
    P. De Freitas Disrupting the nation : gender transformations in the Trinidad Carnival Author uses the presence and performance of women in Trinidad's Carnival, and the narratives surrounding them, to comprehend the linkages between Carnival and the Trinidadian national identity, between gender and the nationalist project. She contends that the public debates surrounding the perceived 'feminization' of Carnival are highly charged because it both exposes the dilemma of post-colonial nation-building and strikes at the heart of the nationalist project. In: New West Indian Guide/ Nieuwe West-Indische Gids 73 (1999), no: 1/2, Leiden, 5-34 This PDF-file was downloaded from http://www.kitlv-journals.nl PATRICIA A. DE FREITAS DISRUPTING "THE NATION" : GENDER TRANSFORMATIONS IN THE TRINIDAD CARNIVAL INTRODUCTION Annually, between the Christian seasons of Christmas and Lent, the twin- island "nation" of Trinidad and Tobago devotes a considerable amount of resources and energy to Carnival activities.1 A season in its own right, the Carnival culminates in a two-day street celebration marked by music, dancing, and masquerade performances. Historically, Trinidad's Carnival2 has served as a social barometer of sorts, registering the ethos, fantasies, ideals, and contests of the society, what Victor Turner (1986:41) has called the hopelessly intermingled indicative and subjunctive "moods" of a culture. In turn, Carnival has had a profound effect on the Self-conscious- ness and behavior of Trinidadians as a people. Each year, Carnival is known, and sometimes expected, to generate a controversy or highly con- tentious issue. Some controversies are year-specific and often confined to the organizational bodies responsible for the planning and performance of the Carnival.
