DESCRIPTION

The Indigenous Kalinagos of Dominica
What happened to the indigenous peoples of the Caribbean in the wake of the European onslaught? All but a few were wiped out. This remarkable book explores the history and culture of those who survived: the Kalinagos of Dominica - from resistance, to refuge and now revival.

"I am honoured as a Kalinago leader to be part of this wonderful work as it relates to the history of our people,” says Irvince Auguiste, former Kalinago Chief.

What happened to the indigenous peoples of the Caribbean in the wake of the European adventurers who claimed to have “discovered” them? While in some parts of the region they were decimated within a generation, others, such as the Kalinagos of Dominica and the Lesser Antilles, resisted the onslaught. This is the first book to examine the long story - from pre-Columbian times to the present day - of the Kalinagos. Written by a Dominican whose knowledge of the Kalinagos is unsurpassed, in remarkable detail it sheds new light on how they have shifted identities from the early years of resistance, through tactical retreat to eventual revival of Kalinago tradition into the 21st century.
