Editors Address
Founded in 1977, the Caribbean Student Association begun last semester by celebrating our 35th birthday. Thirtyfive years of being an SA chartered organization. Thirty-five years of Caribbean events on Binghamton Universitys campus. thirty-five years of political activism. Thirty-five years of community service. And thirty-five years of educational and recreational general body meetings. To sum it all up, 35 Years of Excellence! And after looking back at all the things CSA has done, Im looking forward to the next 35 years. It is with great pleasure that I bring you this edition of Caribbean Perspectives. Mirrored after the theme for our 32nd Annual Culture Night, this issue of Perspectives, The Flight of the Phoenix, is designed to highlight the death, rebirth, and life of the Caribbean. It will also highlight the various legacies that Caribbean countries have left behind. I encourage you to flip through the pages of this publication and immerse yourself in the rich culture and traditions of the Caribbean. Allow yourself to take a journey on The Flight of the Phoenix. One Love, Alicia Johnson Political Coordinator
Presidents Address
Dear Reader, If you are reading this, you have taken the time to review our latest edition of Caribbean Perspectives. Thank you. The executive board has been working tirelessly to ensure the timely completion of this publication and successful execution of Culture Night. It gives me great pride in knowing that we have accomplished both. The Caribbean Student Association at Binghamton University would like to thank everyone who attended Culture Night featuring Caribbean Queen: The Flight of the Phoenix. With each event hosted by our organization, we hope that all in attendance leave with a greater appreciation for our rich and diverse culture. Our deepest gratitude is extended to Shannon, Sasha, Sharix, Radairis, Nikita, Melissa, Ashley, Gabriella, & Danielle: the nine beautiful women who participated in Caribbean Queen, making this the most diverse pageant in our history. A special thanks also belongs to the amazing performers, judges, interns, volunteers, host, and photographer and make up artist, who helped make the event a success. I cannot conclude without acknowledging Miss Nickesha Kelly, CSA alumnus and pageant coach extraordinaire. Your commitment and dedication to CSA throughout the years is something we all find extremely admirable.
The Flight of the Phoenix is a constant reminder that out current incarnation is a path of expansion and growth. It is also a reminder that our journey is an infinite adventure in which we can decide at any time, that our old self has completed its cycle of usefulness. Once we decide to leave our old selves behind, we simply need to follow the example of the Phoenix: immerse ourselves in the spiritual fire of sacrifice and transformation and use the ashes of our old self to create the new person we are destined to become. The Flight of the Phoenix was not only the theme of this years Culture Night; it is also reflective of a transformation among my own executive board. Death. Transformation. Renewal. We have endured and overcome innumerous obstacles since our inception. We have learned invaluable lessons along the way and moving forward, will use our experiences to preserve the legacy of our prestigious organization. . The phoenix is the only creature known to rise from its own ashes, and can simply be interpreted to mean that the end is only the beginning. Thank you for your continued support. We have only just celebrated 35 years of excellence, and look forward to another 35 years of longevity. Please be on the lookout for all that we have in store for the remainder of the semester.

Name: Sasha Powell Year: Junior Major: Socio Cultural Anthropology w/ a minor in Global Studies & Theater Country: Barbados Legacy: Barbados is one of the wealthiest countries in the Caribbean; in fact were the 51st richest country in the world. Yes were rich, but we arent just rich in money, were rich in culture. It is easy for Caribbean Islands to lose tradition by becoming Americanized but we still embrace one of our richest cultural identities, crop over.
Name: Sharix Alicea Year: Freshman Major: PPL & Psyschology w/ a minor in Socio-Cultural Anthropology Country: Cuba Legacy: Cubas legacy lies in that of revolution and change through combination of the past and present. Christina Milian, Gloria Estefan, Ana Cristina, Pitbull, and Celia Cruz as well as dozens of other famous Cuban musicians are the last legacy of the Cuban musical revolution. The continuous production and mixing of Cuban music through these artist are what will continue this legacy for decades to come. 6
Name: Radairis Diaz Year: Junior Major: PPL & Human Development Country: Dominican Republic Legacy: Most people know the Dominican Republic for its tourism and sites. But the country is more than just attractions. The Dominican Republic was the first city to be found in the New World. It was the pathway that lead the way to every other island that was discovered. The Dominican Republic is a country of firsts! It is home to the first cathedral in the New World, Santa Maria La Menor; the first monastery; the first hospital; the first university; the first military fortress; and the first courthouse.
Name: Nikita Felix Year: Senior Major: Sociology Legacy: It's not that Guyana doesn't have the Bobby Seals, the Martin Luther or Malcom X . We are rarely given the chance to show what greatness lies within our nation. Walter Rodney was amongst the few who stood up against political and social inequality and he came from my country - Guyana- bringing political uproar and awareness throughout Jamaica, Guyana, Guinea and here at Binghamton University.
Name: Melissa Trejo Year: Sophomore Major: Psychology Country: Haiti Legacy: Haiti is the first independent nation in the Caribbean and the first black republic in the world. Its official language is French, but the people mainly speak creole. It was once considered the diamond of the Caribbean because it was rich in resources.
Name: Ashley Mitchell Year: Freshman Major: Psychology Country: Jamaica Legacy: In recent years, we have transitioned from our rich cultured entertainment to focusing on making more dancehall and less cultural reggae music. It may be due to our current mindset that this is all that is expected from Jamaica. We have fooled ourselves in thinking people just want to hear dancehall, so it is the only thing we can produce. Jamaica has evolved from every obstacle we have faced as a country. I don't want Jamaican music to evolve to a point where it no longer reflects our roots, our past, our history. It's more than feel-good music. It's the music that calmed the riot. I want to see Jamaica liberate itself from this mindset. I want a Jamaica where the artists incorporate the roots of Jamaican music. We can remove all boundaries of stereotype and exploit the cultural resources that God as well as history has placed at the feet of the unique island of Jamaica. Name: Danielle Ramkissoon Year: Freshman Major: Electrical Engineering Country: Trinidad & Tobago Legacy: On the 26th of May 2010, Kamla Persad Bissessar was elected as the first female Prime Minister, and since then the country has made a turn for the better. She has broken gender barriers within the country proving that it is possible for a trini woman to be successful. Her powerful, triumphant voice articulated that we will build on our collective strength and character and every one of us will rise. She insists that no one, woman, man nor child, will be left behind while she is in power. Kamla has encouraged many females in the country to strive to achieve greater things in life, to go against ALL stereotypes and become who they wish to become, the very essence of this year's theme.
Name: Gabriella Layne Year: Junior Major: English with a concentration in Global Studies PPL & Psychology w/ a minor in Socio-Cultural Anthropology Country: St. Vincent Legacy: What I admire most about my Caribbean country, is what truly makes it different from the rest. Our ability to maintain traditional and moralistic values in an era that has lost this essence. Instilling the importance of generosity, as well as familial and community structure, are the humbling and rewarding legacies of my country that truly make me a proud Vincentian. These are the unique aspects of my country that I would like to see continue, the core of its values and richness that should never change. Part of the legacy that I would like to see employed in my country, is the continuance of prosperity in these areas that are implicit to its identity and virtue. 8

Statistics
Close to 220 children and adolescents under 18 years of age, die every day of domestic violence that means 80-thousand children a year In Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean the annual reported incidence of HIV is three to six times higher in women aged 1524 than in men In Latin America and the Caribbean, some 35 million children between 3 to 18 years of age do not go to school at all The number of Latin American and Caribbean migrants increased in the last decade to nearly 25 million in 2005. As many as 25- 32% of those in the 12-24 years old range are suffering from at least one risky behavior
Risky behavior defined as alcohol and drug abuse, early/unprotected sex, low academic performance, crime, violence, and school desertion is an issue in Latin America and the Caribbean. Some Caribbean countries require additional attention such as Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Haiti and Barbados. Seeing the multitude of issues among the youth and realizing that things are getting worse rather than improving, the governments of the Caribbean region have put preventing and controlling risky behavior at the core at the agenda. Through research into the issue it is recognized that the first step is to implement intervention and risk recognition abilities in teacher development programs. The second thing looked into was that isolated and sporadic interventions are not effective. Instead a strategy needs to be applied that uses a common set of defined indicators for which areas should be focused on. Programs that came into being based on those approaches followed a few rules that would result in the most effective outcome. The most important of these being to reach out to the youngest ones first as early childhood is when positive and negative make a difference in personal growth and development. The Support for a Seamless Education System Program has been running in Trinidad and Tobago since 2009. It aims to improve the quality and equity of early childhood and primary education through its potential to contribute to the childrens long term social, cultural and economic development. This program also makes use of the knowledge that strong social skills and a sense of belonging are important in avoiding those risky behaviors. In 2002, a program in Guyana was started to improve the literacy skills in the education cycle by implementing math courses vie Interactive Radio Instruction. The program known as the Basic Education, Access and Management Support (BEAMS) mainly seeks to improve the quality of education similar to another program in Jamaica identified as The Primary Education Support Project which provides specialized support for students who fall behind. These programs are a step in the right direction as they give the necessary support in the education and social aspect. Through improving these areas they are equipped to improve their financial situation as an average of 39% of the youth in Latin America live in poverty. This will lead less crime as the citizens will be kept busy and have their own belongings. Considering such programs have been put in place gives hope for the future to continue addressing the prevalent issues of the Caribbean youth as it may be quite easy still to fall victim to the surroundings. 10
matters worse her older sister stumbles on her positive pregnancy result. Tiffanys life is spiraling out of control but she
is soon surprised by what she discovers about her sister There are thousands of girls, young women, roaming the island streets that are just like Tiffany. Whose experiences do not always meet societal expectations, and whose families are almost always not receptive. Depreciated, despaired, and demolished, these young women descend into a dream-like state they wish they could forever occupy. For Tiffany, she is constantly awakened by her senses: the stench of vomit that fills her lungs, the sounds of criticism drumming her ears, the anticipated looks of disproval twisting her gut, and the feeling of shame running through her body so much that it has stolen what goddess remained in her.
But what about her sister? Should she provide her with some sort of solace or comforting words of wisdom? It seems
her sister is just as lost as she is, unable to cope with the harsh realities of life. Help is needed, but nowhere to be found. Abortion. Domestic Violence. It does not end there. The Ill Concepts of the Caribbean Woman exposes and speaks openly about disturbing issues within the Caribbean that are well and truly hidden. These issues are so destructive that many women become isolated and consequently lose themselves. As the narrative develops, each issue meanders into the other showing each character that they are not alone. Tiffany and all the women go on a journey of selfdiscovery and self-development into understanding their actions. This book definitely reveals the taboos of Caribbean women, the stories that always go unmentioned. I implore all of you find yourself a copy in your spare time!

On February 15, 2013, the Caribbean Student Association had an intriguing general body meeting entitled Pum Pum Tun Up. The title of this general body meeting was inspired by the song Pum Pum Tun Up by Baby Cham. The general body meeting started with an ice breaker where the room was split into two groups. Each group was given a list of names, like Bugatti Punany, Benz Punany, Honda Punany etc. representing different values of the vaginas, and a list of number ranges representing the number of sexual partners. The task for both groups was to match the number range to the name/phrase; ideally, the higher the price of the car, like Bugatti or Benz or Lexus, the fewer sexual partners. This ice breaker was inspired by Vybz Kartels dancehall hit, Benz Punany. The question was posed as to whether or not these songs were degrading to women. Some people said that the words of the song are offensive when they actually listen to what is being said, while other people said that the song has a good beat where everyone enjoys it at parties. But does the environment in which the song is being played change what is being said in the song? No. Not only do the songs portray a certain image, but females them self make it ok by bragging about having a tun up pum pum or saying that they have a benz punany. Some people found that the comparison of an intimate, private, personal, almost sacred part of the body to an inanimate object such as a vehicle is unacceptable. Why must a price or value of ones vagina be placed? How was this value determined? By the end of the general body meeting everyone had a chance to express their opinions on how females represent themselves. The valid point of females giving false representation through the way they dress was brought up. Some of the males in the room said that they would be more inclined to approach a girl who was dressed more provocative if he was seeking sex rather than a relationship. However, some females rebutted and said that sometimes girls dress the way they do for style reasons or for them to feel more confident by accenting one asset to distract from another that they may not like as much. The discussion then revolved around judgment. Judging is everywhere, someone says. Someone in a professional uniform will be judged just as much as someone in the least bit of clothing. How you look, how you dress, how you present yourself is what people first see. They do not see your resume, or your personality or your real character when they first look at you. They see what you look like and judge you upon that until they can know you better. Unfortunately, this is the society we live in, where we are all judged upon how we look and from that we are classified into a field which may not be correct. She is wearing this outfit... she must be easy. She has that on... she is way too hard to get. Although ones appearance may be an indication of whom they are as a person, it is not always the case. For judgments to stop being placed, we need to stop making them. In order for women to stop being degraded in songs, we need to stop making it ok.

The Caribbean is no stranger to conflict. Its history is laced with examples where ordinary men and women opposed perceived injustices and unified others. These people are known as the warriors of The Caribbean.
One such warrior was Toussaint Louverture, the original leader of the Haitian Revolution. This
revolution has been regarded as one of the largest and most successful slave revolts in the western world. At the time of the revolution, slavery was still legal in all of Europes colonies in the Caribbean including Saint Domingue, known as Haiti in the present. Through his leadership, the enslaved blacks led an assault against the planter class and abolished slavery in Haiti. However, some warriors like Louverture pay steep prices. Napoleon Bonaparte sent his Brother-in-law to France which resulted in the capture of Louverture. He and his family died in a prison in France. However, the Haitians retaliated under the command of his lieutenants and liberated Haiti. Even through his imprisonment and
death, Mr. Louverture was able to inspire his people. However, it would seem that the French had the
last laugh as Haiti is currently the poorest country in the Western hemisphere despite its earlier achievements. Another warrior of the Caribbean was Dr. Eric Eustace Williams of Trinidad and Tobago. Often called the Father of the nation by Trinidadians, he was one of the most significant leaders in public service of Trinidad. Dr. Williams became the first prime minister of Trinidad and Tobago. Being a warrior in the Caribbean also means that one does not try to avoid making difficult decisions which can result in conflict. Williams led Trinidad and Tobago into the Federation of the West Indies and to inde-
pendence within the Commonwealth in 1962. The decision to join and subsequently leave the West
Indies Federation had long lasting effects on attempts to unify the Caribbean. However, Dr. Williams made the decisions that he thought would best serve his people. Despite the short lived success of individual islands, the islands are being slowly being suffocated by some of the developed countries. Only by channeling the ideas of figures such as the Caribbean warriors can the Caribbean on avoid disaster.

Forward Home: The Power of the Caribbean Diaspora By: Shaloma Wagstaffe
The Caribbean is most always noted for its aesthetic beauty. So much so that the Caribbean has become the premier destination for those seeking a tropical vacation. In recent years Caribbean enthusiasts have made the argument that countries need to create other avenues to gain revenue. It is in my opinion that the Caribbean should cling to an old saying If it aint broke dont fix it. This is not to say that coun-
tries should forgo projects to diversify what they offer to the global market, but instead revel in current accomplishments. There are many benefits both domestic and foreign that can be attributed to tourism. An aspect that often goes overlooked or that is generally unknown is the impact that tourism has on the preservation of the environment. When thinking of why these destinations are so heavily visited one thing should come to mind- the lush landscape that covers Caribbean countries. It is no coincidence that these countries are as beautiful as they are heavily traveled. The preservation of the flow of tourists goes hand in hand with the preservation of their environment. The 1990s in the Caribbean were marked by efforts to create legal protection of the environment. This was accomplished with the creation of the Caribbean Alliance for Sustainable Tourism and the Caribbean Hotel Association Environmental Committee in 1992 and 1995 respectively. With the implementation of these coalitions the Caribbean is one of the few regions that has made preservation of ecosystems one of its main political platforms. With the depletion of the environment becoming a large problem more countries should take heed and follow the path of the Caribbean. In addition to protecting the ecosystems of these tropical islands, most noted and generally known is the effect tourism has on local economies. Tourism acts as a jumper cable for impoverished communities. Tourism provides numerous job opportunities that wouldnt exist otherwise, such as local tour guides and excursion providers. There are programs that encourage the use of local producers such as craftspeople and
farmers. By doing so there is constant recycling of funds in these tourist towns. Not only do small business
owners get the chance to capitalize on tourism but all inhabitants of tourism towns. When tourists spend money it is assisting the economy in becoming stronger and self-sufficient so that there are funds that can be allocated to social programs. Tourism should be looked at as one of the few ways the Caribbean can self-sustain itself. It provides the means of executing the programs necessary to build an economy that can rival those of the world powers. We should never regret or be ashamed for capitalizing on the aesthetic beauty of the Caribbean.

Many people have heard of it, but aren't sure exactly where it is. They know it's an island, someplace in the Antilles archipelago. Do they imagine it to be hip and sophisticated, or more authentic, discreet, and laidback? This tiny rock, smaller and less populated than many villages in the French countryside, has few resources other than its charm, its perpetual sunshine, the underwater wealth of its Marine Park, and its protected landscapes. Of course, the island is an excellent tourist destination, one of the most varied and upscale, with villas, hotels, spas, some of the best restaurants in the Caribbean, a wide choice of leisure activities and nautical sports, prestigious sailing regattas, a full calendar of cultural events, and the irresistible allure of great hopping.
St. Barthelemy (St. Barts) has some 21 white-sand beaches, and while all are public and free, few are crowded, even in high season. The best known is St-Jean Beach, a sun-splashed crescent divided by the Eden Rock promontory. The uncrowded strand at Gouverneur Beach, on the southern coast, is gorgeous, ringed by steep cliffs overlooking St. Kitts, Saba, and Statia (St. Eustatius). Equally fine is Grande Saline Beach, to the east; lack of shade doesn't deter the nude sunbathers.
When it comes to shopping, St. Barts wins the prize hands-down for the best in the Caribbean -- it's Paris by the sea. And even better, It's duty and tax free. You can find stylish, high-quality clothing in even the most basic-looking shops. The pharmacies are shopping havens, where the famously exquisite French skincare lines and toiletries are a pleasure to browse. Even the grocery stores are a marvel, with imported French cheeses, pts, wine, and the French version of canned ravioli.

My Darling, I read your pre-valentine's letter sent out to island men and thought I would respond. The verses below were penned just for you, my Caribbean woman. The velvet sound of your voice is the comfort of my soul. Carved in time and written on the fine lines of infinity is the depth of emotions that moves within me for you. Communicating through whispers of desire, I now know, that had I not said what I needed to. Today, I would have been merely an average man. Oblivious to the captivation of you, taken away from the fulfillment you have given me anew. How do I make you see that my life is a wasted entity without you being here to share it with me? Preachers can tell of the wonders beyond the skies, but my heart can orate volumes about the enchantment of your love. Beautiful rainbows scattered across fields of sapphire and emeralds cannot compare to the wonders of you. I close my eyes & I inhale the ecstasy of your grace & touch. Emotions dancing freely with the energy of a raging fire. This island man's only bliss frankly is to see a smile upon my island woman's face whenever you are near me. Loving you, island woman, is that part of me that gets sweeter everyday. Tell me the imaginings of your soul because I swear with you is where my heart feels whole.

Hey CSA! First of all Congrats on 35 years! I would have to say that my favorite moment or best experience was definitely eboard meetings. We spent so much time in that office, came up with brilliant ideas, sine not so good ones. We got along, we disagreed. I mean it was a good time. -Raisa Staine
One of my favorite moments of being on CSA was the CSA Rave: The E.N.D. (Energy Never Dies). It was a new event that brought excitement to the campus that was very successful. It made me proud to be on CSA. -Daniel Richmond
Happy 35 years of prosperity, excellence, and excelling in every endeavor that we take part in. I would have to definitely say that my finest memories of CSA was during the 2009 2010 school year during my tenure as Public Relations Representative. It was an amazing experience and the key that I can remember was involvement. Involvement in everything. We were involved with the community at large, we were involved on the campus. And it was a tough year because we faced a lot of adversity, but everyone showed a good face and put a good foot forward. So I definitely have to say that was my most fine memory. Keep excelling, keep achieving, and keep accomplishing every goal and representing for the Binghamton university campus. Take care CSA - in strength, unity and resistance. -Aaron Wilson

In thinking about CSA and what CSA has meant to me from the time I spent at Binghamton until now, so many warm feelings come to mind, so many thoughts, so many memories, and so much angering feelings as well just thinking about CSA meetings and the drama and the conflicts that existed. However the thing that comes to the forefront is home. CSA has been a home to me and I still consider it a home to me now from day one when I first came to Binghamton. Coming from Brooklyn and coming from one kind of environment to now coming to upstate New York into an place that just felt so difficult - the minute I walked into the union the CSA president at the time came up to me and said Youre joining us and from that day until now, CSA has always been a part of me. -Jessica Jean-Marie
My favorite memory of CSA was playing Patty in Culture Night and then helping to write the play the next year. -Aleisha Forbes
There are so many fine CSA moments I have, but my fondest was definitely one night where we were planning for Carnival and myself and a really close friend of mines got into the biggest argument. It was so impassioned, so full of conviction about what we were going to do about Carnival - how we were going to plan it- and there was this big discourse about what we were going to do. As soon as the meeting was over, 12 am on the dot, myself and this friend walked out of the meeting hand -in-hand discussing trivial things like boys or what we were going to wear the next day. And the greatest thing about CSA is that it creates these relationship- business relationships and friendships in such a way that they are inseparable. So you can argue one minute and turn around and be friends with that person the next. And there are no hard feelings. Thats what I really appreciated most about CSA. It created these real pragmatic friendships that werent easily severed. -Ruth Jean-Marie
