I reason with myself about my own confusion on the subject and come to a conclusion that the reason we find this Caribbeing question so unanswerable is that most Caribbean people are fighting a three way battle. We are Trini to the bone. We are Chinese, Indian, African. On every island we have begun carving ourselves into ever smaller denominations that no-one has the energy to consider how we feel about the Caribbean.

It's now self we have to ask ourselves this question and try to
puzzle through a solution.
