  • The French Caribbean Revolution (1789–1794): Race, Slavery and the Struggle for Equality | Prof Bill Cormack
    2026/10/18

    What happened when the revolutionary ideals of liberty, equality and fraternity collided with the realities of slavery, colonialism and racial hierarchy in the French Caribbean?

    In this episode of Dis A Fi Mi History Podcast, host Wendy Aris speaks with historian Bill Cormack about the French Revolution and its impact on Martinique and Guadeloupe between 1789 and 1794. Together, they examine how revolutionary politics unfolded in the Caribbean, where competing visions of citizenship, freedom and racial equality challenged established colonial power structures.

    The conversation explores how free people of colour, white planters and petits blancs (poor and working-class white colonists) negotiated power through colonial militias, public ceremonies and political petitions. We discuss the significance of the 1792 legislation extending political rights to free men of colour, enslaved people's uprisings and claims to revolutionary citizenship, and the role of Victor Hugues in advancing French republican authority and the abolition of slavery in Guadeloupe.

    How did revolutionary ideals translate into colonial realities? Who was entitled to freedom and citizenship, and who determined the boundaries of equality? And how did the competing interests of race, class, slavery and political allegiance shape the course of revolution across the French Caribbean?

    This episode offers a deeper look at the complexities of the French Caribbean Revolution and the long struggle over emancipation, racial equality and colonial power—history that remains essential to understanding the wider Caribbean and the Atlantic world.

    Holding a PhD from Queen’s University, Professor Cormack has taught at the University of Guelph since 1998. His work offers valuable insight into the complex relationship between the French Revolution and colonial Caribbean society, including the tensions between revolutionary ideals of liberty and equality and the realities of slavery, racial hierarchy, and colonial power.

  • Isabel Anacona and Columbus's Demise: Andrew Rowan on Taíno History, Christopher Columbus & Indigenous Caribbean Resistance
    2026/10/14
    What if the story of Christopher Columbus was told through the voices of the Taíno people? How would it change our understanding of Caribbean history, Indigenous resistance, and the origins of colonialism? In this episode of Dis A Fi Mi History Podcast, host Wendy Aris welcomes author and historian Andrew Rowan to discuss his groundbreaking book, Isabel Anacona and Columbus's Demise, 1492–1502. Drawing on primary historical sources, archaeology, anthropology, and early Spanish accounts, Rowan reexamines one of the most pivotal periods in world history through both European and Taíno perspectives. The conversation explores the remarkable leadership of Queen Isabel I of Castile and Chief Anacaona, one of the Caribbean's most influential Indigenous leaders, whose diplomacy, resilience, and courage shaped the early encounters between Europeans and the Taíno people. Rowan discusses how language barriers, cultural misunderstandings, and competing worldviews influenced the course of history, ultimately contributing to the rise of colonial rule in the Caribbean. Together, they examine the beginnings of the encomienda system, the emergence of mestizo society, Indigenous resistance to Spanish conquest, and the political events that led to Christopher Columbus's removal from power. Rowan also explains how historians can recover Indigenous perspectives by critically reading colonial records alongside anthropology, archaeology, and oral traditions. This episode challenges long-standing narratives of discovery and conquest, offering listeners a richer understanding of Taíno history, Indigenous Caribbean history, colonialism, and the enduring legacy these events continue to have on Caribbean identity, genealogy, and the African and Indigenous diasporas. Whether you're interested in Caribbean history, Taíno culture, Indigenous studies, genealogy, Atlantic World history, or historical research, this conversation provides a compelling new perspective on one of history's most consequential encounters.

    2026/10/04

    What does the food on your plate tell you about Caribbean history?

    In this episode of Dis A Fi Mi History Podcast, host Wendy Aris speaks with Roger Carmichael of Uncharted Taste about the fascinating history behind Caribbean food and the many peoples, cultures, migrations and traditions that have shaped what we eat today.

    Caribbean cuisine is not simply a collection of recipes. It is a record of history, migration, survival, adaptation, trade, culture and memory.

    Together, Wendy and Roger explore the Indigenous, African, European, Indian, Chinese and other influences that have contributed to the diverse food traditions found throughout the Caribbean.

    From ingredients and cooking techniques to recipes passed down through generations, the food we eat can reveal stories about colonialism, migration, the African diaspora, Indigenous Caribbean peoples, indentureship, trade and cultural exchange.

    The episode also explores sustainability, food heritage and cultural memory, encouraging us to look more closely at the everyday foods we may take for granted.

    🌴 What is the history behind Caribbean food? 🍲 How did different cultures influence Caribbean cuisine? 🌍 How did migration shape the foods we eat? 🌱 What can food tell us about sustainability and our relationship with the land? 📖 How do recipes preserve family and cultural memory? 🔎 What happens when we become curious about where our food comes from?

    The next time you sit down to eat, ask yourself:

    Where did this dish come from?

    Who grew the ingredients?

    Who brought them?

    Who changed the recipe?

    Who passed it down?

    And what history is sitting on your plate?

    Join us for a conversation about Caribbean food history, cultural heritage, migration, foodways and the stories hidden within the dishes we eat.
