personally i am so proud of my caribbean lineage and want to honor the universal pride that all caribbean people share across the united states. historically caribbean americans have been key players in the development, growth, and richness of this country. originally entering the united states in bondage, caribbean people endured the brutality of chattel slavery for centuries, but fought for and attained liberation. my home, the virgin islands of the united states, and haiti, are the only two places who organized a slave revolt that led to successful freedom from that revolt in the history of the western hemisphere. caribbean american history is one of struggle and of triumph. descendents of these heroes would later search for greater opportunities here on the mainland, as well as elsewhere. and wherever we have gone, we have led to become pioneers and revolutionaries of our times. some of the most influential caribbean american figures have undisputably driven change and progress in this nation and continue usely aid in its endeavors to achieve people and prosperity. our unique and colo
