Living Black in Barbados: 1961 - Present (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798476989103)

'Living Black in Barbados 1961 - Present' gives an account of life from the perspective of a black person living in a society which despite its ongoing attempts to deliver itself from the endemic pangs of slavery finds itself still influenced by many of the evils perpetuated in a slave environment. The capture of political power by blacks and the changing economy and society are placed under the microscope. The author observes a situation in which stress occasioned by social and economic challenges has contributed to an environment in which individualism, sectionalism, cliquism and confrontation threatens the cohesion which is so necessary for any society to thrive.

Quite appropriately the author offers recommendations for the black population to fully actualise itself while it pursues a kingdom of meritocracy in which every boy and girl no matter where they may come from, no matter the colour or shade of their skin can confidently pursue positions of great service through hard work, skill and dedication.
