Faces of the Caribbean w/Rafiek Mohammed Tuesday's 7-8pm
Rafiek Mohammed, Host
Caribbean people enhance countries and communities with our generations of strong influence and national pride; we know where we’re going because we know where we’re from. Over the past 5 decades the exodus of Caribbean people from the shores of the islands to the big cities of North America has helped set the stage for the dynamic cultural and economic tapestry of the continent.
However, the untold story and neglected demographics of the region that has supplied the US and the World with some of the finest exports of agriculture, minerals, raw material, human resources and an extraordinary amalgamation of music, art, dance and literature has left millions of West Indians throughout the Diaspora without it’s own platform to stand firmly upon. Our Caribbean - American community has had to settle for marginal inclusion in the history books, census and contemporary cultural landscape. The most recent events in Haiti and the attention now being given to Haiti’s plight of the past century is more than proof of this fact where even the major broadcasters in the US have now acknowledged their lack of coverage and inclusion of the Caribbean in their own newscasts and journalism despite even our close geographical location.

It is also a viable entity by which our numbers, statistics and demographics can be documented and accounted for. Our legends, pioneers and heroes now have a place where their groundbreaking works and innovations can be respected and celebrated. Our corporate contribution and socio-political views can be heard and embraced by our own people and acknowledged by those who wish to explore our fascinating culture and burning issues.
The common and individual experiences of the Caribbean unites us as a region; from the vibrant festivals in the streets to the natural resources buried deep beneath our rich soil, from the breathtaking beauty of our shores to the devastation faced by mother nature’s swift hand. Whether we are manufacturing the best quality rums and spices or Nobel Prize winning writers, Grammy Award winning singers and the fastest sports heroes in the World we are one people, now represented by one great legacy, we are the faces of the Caribbean...

What a wonderful and positive way to start a program.
Yes, we West Indians are our worst enemies when it comes to respecting and supporting each other.
Here is hoping that your program brings some positive feedback from the caribbean community living in the US.
I have always thought that we as Island people lack the respect and support for each other.
Your program will definitely open some eyes.
All the best.
Rafiek this is a tremendous undertaking and one that will be appreciated by generations to come.This programme will be the doorway to a myriad of opportunities that will be presented by not only your local participants,but will also be infused by international support as the world becomes enlightened to our contributions in the U.S.A.God speed and much success.
