Day 2 Rites of Passage
Today drhaw took the boys through some ideas about the brain, including the revelation that the pre-frontal cortex, that part of your brain that determines high level thinking, decision making and impulse control is the slowest part of the brain to mature with full development not happening until your mid-20s 🤯 Do you think brain development should be taken into consideration when planning school discipline policies?

What is Kambule Roots and Rites?

It’s a time for reflection on the idea of freedom. What does it mean to be free in a world where we still carry the scars on enslavement in our minds, on the land and on the sea?
As the play Freedom Morning Come asks

***What yuh going to do with yuh freedom allyuh? What yuh going to do now it come? ***

Do you think we still need to ask what freedom means almost 2 centuries after the end of enslavement?

What is Kambule: Roots and Rites?

It’s a celebration of our music heritage - the chants, kaisos and lavways that got us through enslavement and every other indignity thrown at us by colonial authorities. We pay respect to the chantwells, drummers and musicians who told our stories, healed our pain and laughed at our oppressors in song.

Witness the launch of our Songs of Kambule project on August 5th at Central Bank Auditorium!

To all the jamette women
All the Obeah women
All the Iyalorisas
And the Pointers
All the ones they hang for poisoning slave masters
All the ones who ran away
All the ones who fed us
And the ones who hid us
All the ones whose knees were permanently scarred from work and prayer
All the ones they never mention in the history books
We will never forget you
Stop who?
Stop how?
Caribbean Women
The original unstoppables

How do we begin to say thank you? What a season it has been, starting from our first meetings with cast and crew last October and building up to our school and adult performances last Friday at Naparima Bowl. Now as we enter our review process, we are taking the time to reflect on how much we were able to achieve even as we faced challenges and setbacks.
Gratitude first to our amazing cast and crew who gave their all for over three months of intense physical, emotional and spiritual preparation.
