Dear colleagues and friends of Caribbean Studies,
We would like to call your attention to our journal "Wadabagei. A Journal of
the Caribbean and its Diaspora" and for those of you who know the journal
already to refamiliarize you with it. Wadabagei is a refereed,
multi-disciplinary journal published by the Caribbean Research Center at
Medgar Evers College and committed to the publishing of scholarly articles
and creative works on the Caribbean and its Diaspora. In this endeavor it
will place special emphasis on the acculturation of Caribbean people in
North America and the United Kingdom (Europe). It will also examine aspects
of the Caribbean and its Diaspora that have been dynamic in shaping the
Caribbean experience but which have not been sufficiently emphasized in the
academy in the US and worldwide.
The next issue of the journal, Vol. 3 No. 1, will become available in a few
weeks and its contents are as follows:
- Crossing Gendered Space: An Analysis of Trinidad's Carnival from a
Feminist and African-Centered Perspective, by Janet L. DeCosmo (Florida A&M
University)
- Caribbean Carnival in the Diaspora: Labor Day in Brooklyn, by Bert
Thomas (Brooklyn College, CUNY)
- Ideology, Sound, Image and Caribbean Music Videos, by Curwen Best
(University of the West Indies, Cave Hill)
- Caliban Orders History: George Lamming and The Tempest, by
Jennifer Sparrow (Medgar Evers College, CUNY)
POETRY:
- I am a black woman, by Delia Esdaille
- Today I am blessed, by Delia Esdaille
- Sunsets, by Dawn Allette-Noel
The journal's website is located at <<http://www.dynateck.com/wadabagei>>
and subscriptions (US$15 per year for individuals in North America and the
Caribbean) can be conveniently entered online.
Please also note that Wadabagei invites you to submit relevant manuscripts
and book reviews for future issues which will be subjected to an independent
outside review upon editorial approval. Instructions for authors can be
found in the journal's website.
It is our hope that with your support and input we can make the journal even
more relevant to Caribbean Studies than it has been in the past three years.
