Don't quote me on this, but i recall something in the news about Venezuela prohibiting women from child bearing for two years. That is very unsettling if it is true
Carnival is a trini festival. While it may have related origins not only in slavery, but in European society (where the words bacchanal and carnival come from), it is not a celebration observed here. Junkanoo may have those same shared origins, but from historical times to now, those shared origins don't make todays observations 'the same thing'.
When they start calling carnival 'junkanoo carnival' in Trinidad, then i would be happy with 'Carnival junkanoo' here. But trini prob wouldn't want that, because to them Junkanoo is not 'their' culture, nor is it a 'peoples' culture. it is Bahamaian.
In fact real carnival is going on now, and our whateveritis isn't. At least 'peoples' events like Christmas and Easter are observed on the same days.
Politician is be lying to us so much, they want to lie to the tourist too, and make them think we're trinis, no didn't from trinis, all the same people as trinis. I guess we is Haitian Jamaican Cuban and Guyanese too right?
Straw market should be better than this, This is a first hand experience Tourist will return to their countries with.... I've heard tourist telling me they scared after visiting the straw market (which they were expecting to be a quaint marketplace)
