Do you know how to understand that time and money cannot bow down to illiteracy regardless of the skin it may inhabit? Who knows what your ancestors looked like two generations ago.

So, if you are a White West Indian in the new world that existed after the Brownie camera, with its camera contrast in 1901, you need to get used to your self.  You could be the scalawag that never got into property ownership and enjoyed the feeling of other people's property in preferring to squat or maybe you are the part Arawak or the part Cristobal dna. Maybe you are part cave dwelling Troglodyte as recognised by some African runaways in other Islands.  But, now you can own property.  You don't have to be angry if a China man or India Man or a Black man knows the answer because maybe a White West Indian taught them or maybe a Black West Indian taught them. Who you are as a West Indian is as obvious as the last video you watched on your mobile phone.  You may still be at the top of the pecking order and can tell any Black, Indian or Chinese man to bow in your presence at the Kirk's Supermarket or at the Hi Lo or the Fosters.  But, you never know what China man or chubby White man or Black man is a police officer or an "undercover everything" that you may have cussed for picking up the last set of Eggo Waffles on the shelf that day. Do you know Eggo waffles?   I am just running to the police if I see a gun.  I hate angry people! Do you lick Aunt Jemima when the syrup runs all over the hot big sausage?   Just try it.  Know you were loved before you do because everybody wants peace. But, you have the nice hair now and the nice ears with the trimmed eye brows although somewhat effeminate.  Are you gay?  Do the ears work?   Maybe the Black guy was white two generations ago.  Maybe you will finally understand that he still has white relatives and Asian relatives. What de A--?  Now, let's get back to church and the Brit Milah.  Let's hold hands before we  play cricket, run track and play soccer.  Do you have internet? Do you have a pen? Do you have a bullet proof vest?  We cannot suffer a fool for very long so enjoy the peace for which you have worked soo hard.  You should expect some graduates. You prayed for them and some will certainly be Black.  What de A--? Where did you put your penis? They could be yours!  Believe in yourself.  It is not about your authority verses the dna you dropped all over the Island between 17 years of age and 38 years of age before you settled down.  It is about communal authority. Be proud and be safe. You are in paradise.  If you do try it, you are breaking the Queen's peace.  Do you know how to understand that time and money cannot bow down to illiteracy regardless of the skin it may inhabit?  Who knows what your ancestors looked like two generations ago? But, maybe the had children in the caves with the new African arrivals and here you are today several generations later.  Just simmer DOWN!
