The Second Conference on Caribbean Culture, held at the University of the West Indies, Mona, Jamaica, in January 2002, focused in large part on the work of Caribbean poet, historian, literary critic, and cultural theorist Kamau Braithwaite. This volume contains 22 papers from the conference, including contributions discussing Braithwaite's writings on ancestral memory, Braithwaite's music, Braithwaite's short story Dream Haiti, and issues of Creolization in Braithwaite's historiography. Other contributions discuss such issues the construction of Jamaican identity on the Internet, the negotiation of misogynistic masculinity in Jamaican dancehall culture, religion and sociopolitical protest in Jamaica in 1889-9121, the legacy of the slave trade in Jamaica, and the discourses of Calypso music.
