Blog 8: A subject you enjoyed studying this semester

Hi everyone,


Today you're going to talk about a subject you enjoyed studying this semester.

A subject I enjoyed a lot in university was "Caribbean Film and Literature" I thought it was an amazing course and I learned a lot. We watched films made by Caribbean film makers and read essays, novels, and short stories by different Caribbean writers. I got very inspired by that class as many of you may have realized.

But for example, writers like Jamaica Kincaid, Christian Campbell, and Olive Senior I use in many of my courses. I like these writers for different and various reasons. I like Kincaid because she writes well and always writes about controversial topics. I like Jamaica Kincaid because she always talks about anti-imperialism and anti-colonialism. Christian Campbell is very good because he talks about racism in the United States, but also about the Caribbean world. 

Here is a picture of Kincaid and my favorite book of hers:
