Extractions: home search help worldguide ... Postcards Trinidad's Carnival is the most outrageous in the Caribbean. Integral to the festivities is the music of the steel drum (pan), which was invented in Trinidad half a century ago using the hammered-out ends of discarded oil drums. Panyards, where steel drum bands practice in the evenings, abound in Port of Spain and are particularly active with the decibels in the weeks preceding Carnival. Calypso, a medium for political and social satire, has roots on Trinidad. It stems back to the days when slaves sang in patois, mocking their colonial masters. The Mighty Sparrow, long-time king of calypso, is a Trinidadian native, as are many of the Caribbean's up-and-coming calypso stars. Today, the music of indentured servants from India has also become an integral part of Trinidad's musical repertoire. A number of internationally known writers hail from Trinidad, including VS and Shiva Naipaul, Samuel Selvon and CLR James. St Lucian native Derek Walcott, the 1992 Nobel Prize winner for literature, lived in Trinidad for much of his adult life and is an active advocate for local theater projects. Cricket is the most popular sport, though you could be forgiven for thinking it was an art form or quasi religion.

Extractions: Culture of Trinidad and Tobago The islands of Trinidad and Tobago are famous for their steel band music. This music is an important part of Carnival, the biggest celebration of the year on the islands. Carnival is a giant celebration that happens before Lent every year. There are many parties and parades where thousands of people dress up in fantastic costumes and dance the calypso. It is very colorful and lots of fun for everyone. Trinidad and Tobago also have their own university and many local artists and writers. There are theaters that put on plays and many musical concerts and celebrations. For sports, people enjoy soccer, rugby, cricket, horse racing, and boat racing. There are powerboat races between the two islands. Home Geography People History ... Author

Extractions: Friends of The New Voices Preface The New Voices assumed the role of Papabois for twenty years, when it provided an avenue and outlet for aspiring writers in the calypso republic. During that time more than 300 poets had over 500 poems published. A large number of short stories, reviews, a few plays, and many short articles were published. TNV provided oral opportunities by organizing several poetry recitals over the years, and has benignly supported the emergence of youth, women and Indo-Caribbean writers. These pages will highlight some of the work of these participants in that experience. Perhaps they will also bring further recognition to the literature of a country that has grown and developed tremendously since its independence and has continued to be led and influenced by writers like Samuel Selvon(d.1995), V.S. Naipaul,Derek Walcott, Earl Lovelace, Michael Anthony,Merle Hodge, Gordon Rohlehr, Ken Ramchand and Anson Gonzalez. We begin with commentary on Earl Lovelace, well known novelist whose fiction improves with each work. There is an interview by Edith Perez Sisto, a Venezuelan scholar, and some comments by the author himself. The first essay is by Chezia Brenda Thompson of Maryland Institute College of Arts, who has studied Lovelace's works and produced some of his plays.

Extractions: Tobago: Culture, Calypso and Sexuality Education I have just returned from a one-month visit to the island of Tobago, which is part of the twin-island republic of Trinidad and Tobago. I am Canadian, but my mother is from Trinidad and my parents own and operate a guesthouse in Tobago. The incidence of HIV/AIDS on the small island of Tobago (pop. 51, 000) is the highest in the Caribbean, and especially high among the youth population. Young people in Tobago have many beliefs and misconceptions in how the disease is spread and how it can be controlled. Personally, in my short visit, I attended two funerals that were most likely AIDS related. Most people are reluctant to talk about AIDS, especially the family of the deceased who might then become labeled as carriers themselves. Trinidad and Tobago has a strong and distinct culture that includes music, dancing, drinking and partying in a very sexual manner. Young people become very comfortable with their sexuality because of the culture and have few inhibitions. However, despite their very sex-positive culture, young people in Trinidad and Tobago are not adequately educated about safer sex. This is especially apparent in Tobago where the rate of HIV/AIDS infection is 100 percent higher than the country as a whole.

Integral to the festivities is the music of the steel drum (pan), which was invented in Trinidad half a century ago using the hammered-out ends of discarded oil drums. Panyards, where steel drum bands practice in the evenings, abound in Port of Spain and are particularly active with the decibels in the weeks preceding Carnival. Calypso, a medium for political and social satire, has roots on Trinidad. It stems back to the days when slaves sang in patois, mocking their colonial masters. The Mighty Sparrow, long-time king of calypso, is a Trinidadian native, as are many of the Caribbean's up-and-coming calypso stars.

A number of internationally known writers hail from Trinidad, including VS and Shiva Naipaul, Samuel Selvon and CLR James.
