Caribbean cultural events, gatherings, and venues in NYC seem to be under siege by outsiders. However, Jay has a raw and in-depth discussion about our internal forces that are working against itself with Ray Martin, Associate Director of Nightlife Industry and Community Relations. Listen as Ray talks bluntly about organizing, mobilizing and strengthening our Caribbean people as the power unit that we are, to protect our legacy for the future!
Big J’Ouvert Fete In Brooklyn, Despite 2020 COVID Restrictions
EPISODE 15: “Preserving Caribbean Culture In NYC.”
Are Caribbean people really viewed as problematic and violent? Are we our worst enemy? Why do we not own major venues and spaces in NYC? Does the NYPD have a list of people in the Caribbean community that they target? Are WIADCA, party promoters, artistes and businesses really serving the Caribbean community or themselves? Ray Martin remembers James E. Davis and Carey Gabay as he talks passionately about making J’Ouvert and Labor Day in NYC safe for everyone.
