Myth: Poor Caribbean Savages w/ Austin Cole & Erica Caines

We discuss how negative stereotypes about Africans in the Caribbean, particularly in Haiti, create a rationalization for US imperialism throughout the region. To help us discuss this topic we are joined by organizers Austin Cole & Erica Caines. 

 

Austin Cole is co-coordinator of Black Alliance for Peace, and one of the co-coordinators of BAP’s Haiti/Americas Team, and I’m based in the Boston area. 

 

Erica Caines is a writer and organizer in Baltimore and the DMV. Caines is the Field Operations and Membership coordinator of The Black Alliance For Peace, an editor of Hood Communist Blog, and founder of #LiberationThroughReading, providing African children with books that represent them.
