Chicago Carifete 2008

The authentic Caribbean is made up of all the world's peoples - African, Asian, European, Mid Eastern, and the Native American Indian. They form an ethnic montage that has composed a distinctive cultural personality. Their rhythms are unique as seen in their performing arts - music and dance; they stimulate your sensibilities with the writings of their writers and the paintings of their painters; and they nourish you with their cosmopolitan food. These characteristics, and an early socialization in multicultural, multiracial countries have allowed the West Indian, for example, to assimilate seamlessly into Chicago. They have as almost instinctual knoweldge of how to live in a such as contemporary as Chicago.
