Synopsis

This is a celebration of women who, through their resistance, creativity, and assertion of selfhood, have made a space for themselves. The celebration of such lives stands as a beacon of hope in the depiction of woman's place in a Jamaican society where abuse, poverty, and abandonment are pervasive. Jean Goulbourne articulates the grief, hopes, and unquenchable spirit of resistance of black women in the Caribbean.
