Women and the Emergence of an Indo-Caribbean Community in British Colonies. This paper provides a detailed history of ethnic, racial, and class histories that help to describe the history of Caribbean culture. Much of the cultural history of former British colonies such as Guyana, Trinidad, Jamaica, and other Caribbean countries is traced here to the slave trade conducted by the British during the 17th and 18th centuries. Caribbean culture is described in relations to indentured slaves brought from India, and in particular Indian women who were subject to particular criteria for transport from India to former British Colonies. From this history, the complex culture of the Caribbean communities is traced to the British slave trades, and the subjugation of women within slave trading. 20 pgs., 16 sources.
