The enthusiastic support of fellow artists brings a joy beyond compare. The song material that has been pouring in is testimony that Dominica has produced some of the greatest talent on Earth, We look towards completion of the CD and fulfilling our vision of providing musical education, training and opportunities to the youth of Dominica. I am proud of Dominican artists and to be associated with the ROC project" Ras Mo Website: www.rasmo.net Free Joseph, Concord, New Hampshire, USA "Dominican musicians in the Diaspora in their quest to fulfill their musical dreams had to leave their beloved homeland because of lack of opportunity to live professionally as artists.. This means that they made many sacrifices, yet the desire to express their love of country and promote Dominica and provide opportunity for Dominican youth have manifest them coming together to create the ROC compilation project. "Through the ROC we are creating opportunities at home for our youth so that they won't have to experience some of the hardship and sacrifice that we faced through migration. In a global economy we want to make it possible for them to develop skills at home and market them worldwide without having to migrate unnecessarily.

Tips on using the site Dominican Culture - Getting along in a New Culture Ah ha! You’re reading this! That’s a good start! If you’re the sort of person who can accept cultural differences, you’ll enjoy Dominica. Personally, I find it a little hard to accept a new culture. It’s not just a matter of watching the traditional dances at the village fete. However, now that I’ve done it, I’m glad I have a job in Dominica and don’t ever have to put up with a Nebraska winter, again. In Dominica, being friendly is not just a little thing, it is a matter of culture. Speak to people in passing. At least say, “Ok” which is the efficient Dominican way of saying, “How are you? Fine thank you, and you? I’m ok.” If you hear someone shout, and you think they might have shouted your name but aren’t sure, shout back. It doesn’t matter if you’re mistaken. It happens all the time. No one cares. The use of English in Dominica is different enough so that it is easy for misunderstandings to develop between students and Dominicans. I once said to one of my favorite students that it surprises me how little prejudice there is in Dominica, and he said, “What do you mean? They’re always saying things.” I said, “You mean like Hey, white man! Come!’” Yes, that was it. In Dominica a white man is just what I am. If I was in south Chicago and someone shouted, “Hey, white man. Come!” my first thought would be to wonder why I never had the supercharger installed on my car. If I ignore a Dominican who shouts “Hey, white man,” I have been offensive. “Boy” doesn’t mean anything, either, though I doubt that I will ever be able to bring myself to call a Dominican “boy.”

Allan Mitchell DM Columnist January 13, 2004 From Ole Miss to Ole Mas: the University of Mississippi's first leader of a sovereign nation is 31-year-old Roosevelt Skerrit, a 1997 English and psychology graduate, who was sworn in a few days ago as the new prime minister of Dominica (pronounced Dom-in-eek-a). As a literature student myself, I can finally tell my parents that studying English can lead to becoming chief executive of one of the world's most beautiful islands. "The leadership that I will provide to Dominica is one of inclusion," Skerrit said after being sworn in. "The country requires unity, co-operation and understanding of everyone." It's good to see a fellow Generation X-er say such sage things without "like," "dude," or ironic sarcasm attached. Dominica first captured my childhood imagination in the pages of National Geographic almost two decades ago. Then, last year, Grisham writer-in-residence Shay Youngblood, who had been a Peace Corps volunteer on the island in the Caribbean in the early 1980s, rekindled my interest in Dominica.

The Caribs of Dominica “A to Z of Dominica Heritage” by Lennox Honychurch —a collection of various terms, with their linguistic origins (including Carib words). BBC—Video Nation: CARIBS, by Saturine Dodds —abstract of online video clip: "Saturine is contemplating the future of her tribe, the Caribs. Though the population of the Carib Territories is over 3,000 she believes you will only find about 300 pure Caribs among them. In the past the Carib Chiefs would force women to leave the Territory if they married a non-Carib man but now they are not so strict". Callinago, by Carrie Martin, at emuseum.mnsu.edu: a concise page in English on the Caribs of Dominica, focusing on their language, agriculture, and religion. Excerpt: “In the middle of the seventeenth century, several French missionaries started learning more about the Island Caribs or as the French called them the "Callinago". This was the name for the men, and Callinpuna was the name for the women. Today's anthropologists have discovered that the Island Carib's culture, language, and society is a seventeenth century phenomenon. The Island Caribs use the ethnic name, Kalinago or Kalina, and live on the island of Dominica .” The Caribs in Dominica: Karifuna Cultural Group, by Kevin Menhinick, Caribbean Taino News Service, 12 January 1997
