– Presence today of religious practice (Voodoo, Macumba, Santeria) that are from the West African Coast. How did they arrive in the Caribbean?

– How many natives are left there. They were too few physically too fragile so had to be replaced by stronger workers.

– What do you know of the “Ebony Trade” Ebony was a wood of dark colour. Sadly the Black people were transported like logs of wood on ships, from Africa.
