It is a pity that in the Caribbean we are so corrupted :
In addition to tourism and music ,
we could have dominated Sports , not only Track and field !

We had the best table tennis ( ping pong )
Golden arm fellahs..
Cricket we dominated .
Trinidad and Jamaica .....Soccer development
Guyana field hockey and Cricket.
Girls were dominating Lawn tennis and squash !
Sports was an integral part of the school curriculum.
I cannot explain our fall .... ::redface::

look no further than the westindian neo colonialist elite and their doctrine...
the bump we got from western philosophical principles after independence could only go so far..as far as its economic concomittant would allow.
western doctrine was not composed for us but for whites. it dominates us but does not work for us. at this point it is not possible for it to take us further as western dominance dries up and has turned criminal oputright
we are lost and trhe only way forward is to assume full responsibility for ourselves.
we have to and must make an independence of economy now or we will never be free. they have dried us out, cleaned us out, continue to bleed us to the bone through the system in place
to make such an indpendece we must be able to think freely, in our own best interest, creatively, and be strong enough to implement the results of such independent creativity.
but we are not so creative, are afriad, dominated by western christianity in particular...and where not, by a Hinduism riven complete with class, caste and racial chuvinisms.
our intellectual superstructure is totally incapable of lifting the westindian people out of the mess. we have to develop a core westindian intellectualism or ideologyy based on our REALITY, totally responsive to our collective needs at this time in the world
through our elite classes we are beholden to white power in the world..the internatinal bankers.
the economy we have evolved since 1962 has entreneched this class in power and beholden to white power, this westindan ledership class carrys through capitalism, which is now into global contraction...
caribbean capitalism has been extractive for all the time its been in place, shipping wealth out of the region and bringing nothing of value back in
and what you describe is what the carribbean displays almost everwhere save in the pockets where the money is concentrated like Port of Spain Trinidad.
the caribbean is a davastated, plundered area, falling back constantly, not going forward.
what people used to do ceases because even the lil resources we used to have are now gone.
we do not produce champions anymore save in the most brutal naked way, conditions.... literally from nothng as in Jamaica because the riches at the end of that struggle areperceived to be great, worthwhile.
the people have been starved into believing that is what they want, their only opportunity out of the bottomless social hole they are in.
most of them what they prolly think that that...extreme poverty...is their natural state of existence
the economy we do have entrenched our dominant class in power they cannot think independently and creatively anyway, have no incentive to, are satisfied with the way things are because they are ok in it.
to maintian themselves they continue to brutalise the westindian people, cut back everything to ensure the profits continue to flow from the region to the ravagers in New York and London
as I have been singing from the start little will change unless there is BASIC social change in the region, and democratic collectivisation into a nation state of all the terroritories
