Abstract

In this chapter, Lorick-Wilmot examines the MSGCIs’ identity negotiations and assertions in public spaces. These public spaces include the neighborhoods they live in, their places of employment as “the singular black” and the black “community” they serve (locally, globally and symbolically). She points to the specific cultural capital performances and activities the MSGCIs engage in and their responses to the factors of oppression and liberation they experience in their daily lives as second generation Caribbean immigrants.
