  • Summary

    The epilogue reflects on some of the stark differences between the Grenadian and Trinidadian and Tobagonian religious climates and considers recent efforts to revive Yoruba culture on Grenada, reiterating the ways African work within the Eastern Caribbean Sea is co-constructed and interrelated - yet also marked by difference. It emphasises the book's aim of providing a study of Africans who, arriving decades after the abolition of the British slave trade, radically shaped the religious and cultural landscape of Grenada. It argues for the need to move beyond emphasising unidirectional culture flows as is characteristic of the creolisation- survival debate to examining the historical processes by which African work has been recreated, reconfigured, and rejuvenated by local factors as well as the movement of peoples, commodities, and ideas around the Eastern Caribbean Sea and beyond.
