Congotay! Congotay! A Global History of Caribbean Food
Author: Candice Goucher
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317517334
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Since 1492, the distinct cultures, peoples, and languages of four continents have met in the Caribbean and intermingled in wave after wave of post-Columbian encounters, with foods and their styles of preparation being among the most consumable of the converging cultural elements. This book traces the pathways of migrants and travellers and the mixing of their cultures in the Caribbean from the Atlantic slave trade to the modern tourism economy. As an object of cultural exchange and global trade, food offers an intriguing window into this world. The many topics covered in the book include foodways, Atlantic history, the slave trade, the importance of sugar, the place of food in African-derived religion, resistance, sexuality and the Caribbean kitchen, contemporary Caribbean identity, and the politics of the new globalisation. The author draws on archival sources and European written descriptions to reconstruct African foodways in the diaspora and places them in the context of archaeology and oral traditions, performance arts, ritual, proverbs, folktales, and the children's song game "Congotay." Enriching the presentation are sixteen recipes located in special boxes throughout the book.

Colonialism's Children
Author: Gemma Thomas
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 0759603650
Category : Economic development
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
The book that you are about to read are actual events that happen in my life. Only the names of the people have been changed. When I was growing up as a girl, I had dreams of getting a good job and marring a wonderful man and raising a family. And live the fairy tale of living happily ever after. But my life did not take that route.. Instead, I had a whirlwind of marriages gone wrong. Some women, especially single women would ask me what I did to get all those men to marry me. My responds to them was nothing. I met my true love when I was going through a terrible divorce from my second husband. I met Leroy when I was in a difficult situation. My ex-husband played around on me and committed adultery. That is why I filed for divorce. And the bad thing about the whole ordeal is that he really did not love me and he did not want anybody else to love me either. I was just too blind at the time to see. What really made matters worst is, I was still very much in love with my ex-husband. Even though I had filed for a divorce. To make a long story short it ended up breaking Leroy's heart. Therefore, I ended up marring my ex-husband a second time. And that marriage was an even bigger mistake than before. The marriage did not last over two months. But it left a big scare in my life. That is when I went into a whirlwind of marriages that followed. I did not see Leroy until thirteen years later. Leroy went on with his life and married a woman and moved to San Diego, Ca. to start their new life together.
