    Inaugural Dame Nita Barrow Lecture Are Caribbean Women Taking Over? Contradictions for Women in Caribbean Society Toronto, December 1997 Violet Eudine Barriteau Director, Centre for Gender and Development Studies University of The West Indies, Cave Hill Campus, Barbados Dean Michael Fullan, Chair, Barbados' High Commissioner to Ottawa, Her Excellency June Clarke, Mr Errol Humphries, Mr Louis Tull, Dr Hall, Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, colleagues, sisters and brothers from the Caribbean, good evening. I am very honoured and humbled to deliver the inaugural lecture of the Dame Nita Barrow Women In Development and Community Transformation Visitorship. On behalf of the University of The West Indies and the Centre for Gender and Development Studies I take this opportunity to congratulate OISE and the University of Toronto for establishing this Visitorship to honour the memory of Dame Nita. I hope our policy makers have noted your initiative and are in fact working on a significant and relevant means of honouring the regional and international public service of this remarkable, outstanding woman. I anticipate and look forward to this. Are Caribbean Women Taking Over? Let me say by Caribbean I refer to the countries of the Anglophone, Commonwealth Caribbean which share a similar historical, cultural, political and economic legacy even though there are varying expressions of that legacy within this grouping. With the topic of my lecture, "Are Caribbean Women Taking Over? Contradictions for Women in Caribbean Society” I draw your attention to the changing nature of gender relations in the Caribbean and what these changes mean for women. Sharp, polarized divisions now exist in the ways in which Caribbean people interpret these evolving relations.

  • Teaching Black Canada(S) Across Borders: Insights from the Caribbean and United States
    Teaching Black Canada(s) Across Borders: Insights from the Caribbean and United States Amoaba Gooden and Charmaine Crawford Amoaba Gooden, Department of Pan-African Studies, Kent State University [email protected] Charmaine Crawford, Institute of Gender and Development Studies: Nita Barrow Unit, University of West Indies at Cavehill, Barbados [email protected] Abstract This article offers two unique and overlapping perspectives that explore the challenges and practices faced when teaching and researching Canada from the Caribbean and the United States. Acknowledging that curriculum, which ontologically and epistemologically influences the norms and values of the learning environment, is not a neutral document (Ross 2001, 1) the authors focus on how they enact curricula outside of Canada to discuss issues of rights and diversity as well as to challenge hegemonic narratives of white Canadian nation-building and historiography and ideas of Canada as a benevolent nation-state. Specifically, the authors examine (1) the ways in which assumptions about power and privilege play out in the classroom by either reinforcing or challenging established North/South relations; (2) how the black Canadian experience can be used to disrupt the U.S. black nationalist discourse and allow for an elaboration of the black or African Diaspora; (3) how dominant notions of gender, race and sexuality are articulated differently outside a Canadian landscape; and (4) Canadian-Caribbean relations when it comes to teaching and learning across borders through student exchange programmes. nationalist discourses, whether purported by t the G-20 Summit in Pittsburgh on politicians like Mr. Harper, by the media or by the A general public, construct the Canadian experience September 25, 2009, Prime Minister Stephen as a celebration of diversity in which differences Harper declared that Canadians: "..
