Focusing on the complexities of cultural hybridity in the Caribbean, this book examines its implications for social equality and identity. It questions why certain hybrid identities are celebrated while others are marginalized, and explores their significance in nationalist and post-nationalist narratives. By analyzing the hybridization of Afro-Caribbean and Indo-Caribbean cultures resulting from slavery and indentureship, the work contributes to critical discussions in postcolonial studies regarding cultural resistance, feminism, and the evolving nature of nationalism in a globalized world.
