{"title":"Scholarly Strains on Shaky Ground: Caribbeanness and the Campus in Marking Time and Grounds for Tenure","authors":"Jarrel De Matas","doi":"10.33596/ANTH.388","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.33596/ANTH.388","url":null,"abstract":"Campus narratives, either written by Caribbean writers or whose setting is the Caribbean, explore issues that go beyond the affairs of the institution. This paper focuses on two particular works of Campus fiction, E.A. Markham’s Marking Time (1999) and Barbara Lalla’s Grounds for Tenure (2017), which – despite being published almost two decades apart – interrogate aspects of the university on their way to raising questions about Caribbean identity in the region and its overseas diaspora. These questions revolve around the frail interpersonal relationships between academics; the rivalries that ensue out of the quest for power; the politics that undermine the duty of the university; and the psychological ruptures that result from pursuing tenureship in an academic rat race. The primary argument made in this paper is that each novel reflects ideological statements about the Caribbean and its diaspora that are both internally as much as externally produced. By incorporating the wider world into the affairs of the campus, the novels demystify the esteemed position of Caribbean institutions when faced with larger, neo-liberal systems at work. Apart from the internal missteps of the university being explored by each novel, there is also the larger exploration of the effects on the institution brought on by the commercialization of higher education. By using satire, both writers dramatise controversy in extreme cases and thereby allow serious consideration of the function of the contemporary Caribbean university. Both novels help us to understand not only educational institutions in crisis, but also different stages of crises that stem from being Caribbean.","PeriodicalId":286446,"journal":{"name":"Anthurium: A Caribbean Studies Journal","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127298510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Barnett","doi":"10.33596/anth.405","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.33596/anth.405","url":null,"abstract":"In both The Aguero Sisters by Cristina Garcia and The Memory of Silence by Uva de Aragon, the two authors develop their respective conflicts around sisters who are separated following the Cuban Revolution. In both cases, one sister remains in Cuba while the other migrates to the United States. As the two novels develop, the reader understands that we are before an allegory in which one sisters represents post-Revolutionary Cuba while the other emblemizes the new identity of the Cuban exile diaspora. The narrative tension presents the protagonists as rivals, but in both cases, their reunification says as much as about cultural relationships as it does sibling rivalries. Given the striking similarities between the two works in both discourse and theme, then, we may be tempted to presume that one story is merely a re-telling of the other; however, a textual analysis reveals identifiable differences in scope, purpose, and resolution.","PeriodicalId":286446,"journal":{"name":"Anthurium: A Caribbean Studies Journal","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125427978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Magic City Killjoys: Women Organizers, Gentrification, and the Politics of Multiculturalism in Little Haiti 《魔城扫兴者:女性组织者、中产阶级化和小海地的多元文化政治》

The article draws on scholarship from urban and gender studies as well as on critical conversations about Miami’s multiculturalism and blackness, demonstrating how women organizers and leaders spearhead the local anti-gentrification movement to curtail displacement and cultural appropriation. My focus on feminization of organizing in the contentious battle for Miami’s future reveals the persistent and self-perpetuating gender and race imbalance between the city’s grassroots and official development politics. The women organizers who populate the pages of this essay defend a community-driven process and protest the masculinist, top-down approaches to urban development, even as they don’t always agree about the ways in which that protest should take place. Ultimately, I argue that thinking through the multigenerational, varied, and periodically opposed perspectives and practices within this women-led advocacy allows us to evaluate the social landscape of Little Haiti as neither politically nor economically hermetic, neither an issue to be fixed nor a culture to be consumed. Instead, the complex infrastructure of grassroots organizing reveals the Little Haiti community as entrepreneurial, politically-engaged, and economically, culturally, and generationally diverse. This image stands in direct opposition to the two-dimensional frameworks of cultural branding that index Haitian and Haitian American culture via the simplistic tropes of poverty or consumable difference and to the city of Miami’s history of ignoring or repressing its Black roots.","PeriodicalId":286446,"journal":{"name":"Anthurium: A Caribbean Studies Journal","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114654806","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
