An incredible, informative, collection of essays, oral histories, poetry, fiction, analysis, interviews, primary documents, beautifully illustrated timelines and maps and interactive & interdisciplinary teaching aids on the history, politics, and culture of the Caribbean, as it exists within the U.S. today. Migration from the Caribbean is reshaping the cultural landscape of many American communities. "Moving North" explores this process through fiction, poetry, personal narratives and interviews by women and men of Caribbean background living in the United States. Some came to this country from the Caribbean as adults, while others arrived as children or were born here to parents from the Caribbean. Tracing their roots to Puerto Rico, the English-speaking West Indies, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Haiti, the writers in "Moving North" bring to life the migration experience and the contributions of Caribbean people to U.S. society today. With all the Teaching For Change publications, this is packed with information for the educator, and those wishing an education, alike.
