For those of you who may not know, Kim has an incredible background rooted deeply in her Caribbean culture, which has shaped her journey in ways she’ll share with us today. From her university days, where she helped form strong communities, to her breakout role on the beloved show "Schitt's Creek," Kim's story is as inspiring as it is unique. We'll dive into her favorite roles, including her current passion project at the Stratford Festival, and get into the nitty-gritty of voice acting versus theatrical performance. Kim will also reflect on her experiences facing racial isolation growing up in Canada, and how she found her way into the world of acting, despite early aspirations to become a doctor or lawyer. Stick around as Kim talks about her personal interests, like cooking her favorite curry chicken, and her current and upcoming projects, including a special film debuting soon on Paramount Plus. To top it all off, we'll hear a heartwarming Thanksgiving anecdote and Kim's gratitude for the audience’s continuous support. And there might even be some light-hearted banter about her character’s pet Chick Aletta from "Paw Patrol." So, get ready to be inspired by Kim's perseverance and dedication to her craft, and maybe even pick up some tips on finding success and purpose. Let's jump right in! Takeaways: · Acting is like breathing; it's essential to me. · Mentorship is about sharing wisdom and opening doors. · Cultural identity shapes our experiences and perspectives. Sound Bites: · “Voice acting allows for creative freedom without physical constraints.” · “Emphasizes authenticity by connecting personal experiences with her characters.” Connect and Discover LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kim-roberts-4586508a Instagram: Instagram.com/mskimroberts Facebook: facebook.com/kimmyonline Threads: @mskimroberts X: kimroberts1 Film: All The Lost Ones See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Show Notes: Kellie Magnus has been working in Jamaica for over 30 years. She returned to Jamaica after completing grad school in Colombia, where she worked in consulting and nonprofits. Since returning to Jamaica, she has been working in nonprofits and with international development partners, focusing on development-related issues. She is now the executive director of the Caribbean Culture Fund, a new entity raising money for arts and culture in the Caribbean. On the Board of NGOs During Kellie's time in New York, she attended the Ed School and business school, worked in person consulting, and freelanced on various creative and entertainment projects. Since returning to Jamaica, she has focused on developing arts-related projects that can improve outcomes for a wide cross-section of people. Her first role in Jamaica was working at the University of the West Indies in the Media and Communications Department. She joined boards of government entities and industry associations, and has since become deeply rooted in Jamaica. Kellie talks about her time serving on the board of The Book Industrial Association of Jamaica. She also talks about her work for the NGO Fight for Peace, a global NGO focused on Youth Violence Prevention. It started in Brazil, and opened a branch in England, and then an Alliance Network in about 20 countries around the world, and they wanted to start a program to test out ways to catalyze collaboration between NGOs and state agencies and the private sector around reductions in youth violence, and Jamaica and South Africa. She also ran a project for the World Bank, also focused on Youth Violence Prevention Fundraising and Growing Arts and Culture in the Caribbean The conversation turns to Kellie's position with the Caribbean Culture Fund, a regional entity focused on arts and culture in the Caribbean. It raises money internationally and distributes it through calls for proposals to artists and cultural organizations based in the region. The fund was created as a focal point for Caribbean fundraising about arts and culture. The fund's approach involved inviting prospective donors to campus or meeting with them directly. The head of the program spent a lot of time with the donors, listening to their interests and connecting them with the program they thought most matched their interests. Kellie talks about seed funding, their fundraising strategy, and a new fund they are in the process of setting up. Kelly discusses her personal and social network in the arts and culture space in Jamaica.  Verticals within the Arts and Culture Space Kellie shares her experience in attending various events and festivals, including art exhibits, book festivals, film festivals, and pottery festivals. However, she acknowledges the complexity of understanding each vertical within the arts and cultural space and the diversity across different territories. She talks about common roots and challenges, and shares how the team is planning to dive deeper into each sector in each country over the next year. Filmmaking in the region is not very country-specific, with some countries like the Dominican Republic doing better than others. Jamaica is getting better, but production costs are still prohibitive. The government has launched a Jamaica screen development initiative this year, which is optimistic about its impact on catalyzing production. She also talks about working across jurisdictions in the Caribbean. Kellie spends her time attending literary, film, and dance festivals, as well as reading and running. She also tries to connect with nature and enjoys spending time at the beach. She recommends Portland, a less touristy part of Jamaica, for its lush, quiet, and beautiful environment. She also recommends going up in the mountains, as it is the most beautiful part of the island. Kingston is a fun, vibrant, and culturally rich city to live in, with live music events, good restaurants, and nightlife.  Influential Harvard Professors and Courses Kellie mentions Werner Sollors' African American literature class; she also mentions African American History.

They do this by organizing volunteers to prepare hand illustrated brown bags filled with culturally specific food and other items and delivering them to those in need. I actually just started working with them, in fact, because of a mention on a group chat I'm in of the Harvard Asian American alumni Alliance, also known as h4 a, another great organization, but I had such a positive experience working with heart of dinner that I thought they would be great to highlight here, my 11 year old daughter and her mother and I made more than 20 hand decorated bags recently to help celebrate the upcoming mid autumn festival, the big holiday in the Chinese culture that's somewhat akin to Thanksgiving. And the group itself is super organized and effective, and they're planning to expand to other cities and other Asian communities. One great way to help is by organizing a corporate bag decorating event with your colleagues. Even if you're not located in New York City, you can still send in your illustrated brown bags by mail. They, of course, also welcome donations to help pay for the contents of their care packages. You can learn more about their work at WWW dot heart of dinner. All one word, heart of dinner.org, or by emailing Hello at heart of dinner.org, and they're very responsive. And now, without further ado, here's Will Bachmann with this week's scintillating episode of the 92 report.  To learn more about their work visit: https://www.heartofdinner.org/

Have you ever stood at the crossroads of your own perceptions and the undeniable truths of the world? I, Nat Nat, along with a panel of insightful souls, including Reds Wizdom, Derek Perera aka Dawg E Slaughter, Captain and Special K, embark on an exploration of these intersections, uncovering the layers of reality that construct our personal truths. We navigate the delicate balance between what we believe and the absolute truths that govern our existence, such as the certainty of the sun's rise and set and how this shapes our inner and outer worlds.Our candid dialogue traverses the terrains of honesty, spirituality, and the quest for authenticity, all while honouring the vibrant essence of Caribbean culture. We delve into personal anecdotes that reflect the challenges and triumphs of adhering to spiritual laws, the power of intuition, and the importance of creating safe spaces where our spirits can thrive. Our discussions reveal the intense journey of self-discovery and the courage it takes to confront generational trauma with the hopes of healing and growth. Through the pulsing rhythms of Soka music and the rich traditions of our heritage, we celebrate our culture's beauty while scrutinizing its keepers' responsibilities within the diaspora.Closing the chapter on our enlightening discourse, we examine the collaborative spirit that enlivens event planning, the evolution of Caribbean music, and the critical role of community workshops. We highlight the significance of sharing such valuable conversations, extending an invitation to join us on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok at Lift One Self to continue the journey together.

Lalin St. Juste has been a staple in the Bay Area music scene for a decade with her genre-bending band The Seshen. In this episode, Lalin takes us on a transformative journey of healing and reclamation of her Haitian heritage through her solo music. As a Haitian American, Lalin has felt a deep connection to her roots, but also struggled with issues of identity and the negative stereotypes associated with Haiti. Through her music, she aims to unlearn these misconceptions and show the true richness and beauty of Haitian culture. Lalin's musical journey started as a means of expressing herself as a shy and quiet child. But it was her bond with her maternal grandmother that truly influenced her path. As Lalin coped with the loss of her grandmother, singing became a source of solace and healing. Her music celebrates and reclaims her matrilineal bloodline and Haitian heritage, in turn leading to a reaffirmation of her sense of belonging as a Haitian AmericanDon't forget to go to my website and leave me YOUR story of belonging to feature on a future episode!Buy Me a Coffee!Episode Highlights [00:02:15] LA-raised musician connects with Haitian heritage.  [00:05:51] Shy child found solace in music.

What would it take for you to drop everything you're doing right now and focus on the thing that truly makes your heart sing? Think about it. You probably started down one road in college, but now you find yourself in the grind of a job doing something completely different, and you wonder: how did I get here? But most importantly: how do I get back on track?That's exactly the question that our guest Ann-Marie La Ronde-Richard asked herself when she made the choice to pivot from being a research pathologist back to her original passion: working closely with patients.As an international student from Dominica, her options were slim. Ann-Marie wasn't eligible for financial aid, so her parents took out a second mortgage on their home to finance her studies in the US. This was a shot she could not afford to miss. So instead of going to medical school to work directly with the community, she took a PhD fellowship and her love for working with patients stayed on the back burner for years.In today's episode I asked Ann-Marie about the career path that built her up as a scientist, and the details of her decision to switch to a patient-driven track. It's my hope that you will find the lessons you need to hear to get your own journey back on track, and you can finally find joy and purpose in what you do.And if you're listening on Apple Podcasts, please head over to the Reviews section and leave us a 5 star review, it really helps others find our show, and thank you.Here's my interview with Dr. Ann-Marie La Ronde-Richard.Guest Information:Dr. Ann-Marie La Ronde-Richard, Ph.D. Director and Patient Engagement Lead Internal Medicine Research Unit, PfizerCo-Founder of the Color of BiotechCo-Founder of Dominican Health and Education InitiativeVirtual event: June 11, 2022 @10:00AM - 2:00PM4th Annual Fundraiser, The Caribbean Culture, Cuisine and Art Expo Interested in participating?Website: https://dahei.orgeMail: aiddominica@gmail.comLike Ann-Marie on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/annmarie.laronderichardJoin the Facebook Community: http://bit.ly/helenajgroupLike us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HelenaJNowFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/helenajnowWatch on YouTube: https://bit.ly/helenajyoutubeJoin the VIP list: https://bit.ly/helenajvip Checkout the Website: https://www.helenajoseph.com Sales Bluebird for leaders and go-to-market teams at cyber security startupsTips, tricks, ideas and inspiration from legendary cyber security CEOs and CROsListen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

Shea Marie Diva & Vixens Podcast Episode 10 with special guest, author Jenelle Simpson, speaking on various topics. Jenelle Simpson of Toronto, Canada discussing how childhood trauma and infidelity led to her facing her fears and fulfilling the dream of writing books.Short Bio: Jenelle Simpson is a senior law clerk, paralegal, motivational speaker, life coach in Toronto. She recently added author to her list of accomplishments with the release of her new book, “Commitment To A Deceitful Liar”, a look inside the life of Jenelle, raised in a West Indian home with all its beliefs and myths. The first-time author readily admits, her truth is not always pretty; which includes sexual abuse, rape, and various struggles within her community including drugs and strippers.  Janelle details her struggle to escape repeated generational cycles passed down. She explores having to unlearn instilled toxic generational cycles and relearn how to move to new levels in our life. The title, based on one life incident, has become an inclusive umbrella of sorts. Lies come from many different sources throughout our lives; but, through truth, we learn to forgive and create our own walk-through life.Visit https://www.worldwideentertainmenttv.comSupport the show (https://py.pl/U3f9Y)

Ryan Gurcharn hosts a special panel of Peel Matters in collaboration with the Brown Girl Diary on masculinity, Indo-Caribbean culture and identity.

Sparked by controversial comments made by social media personality WhiteChocolate758 claiming to, “pave the way for black people” in the Caribbean carnival influencer space, this episode dissects his opinions, but more importantly reflects on how cultural appropriation happens and its impact on the aesthetics of Caribbean culture to the masses. Using this example of the Caribbean Carnival experience we evaluate all the angles and dissect how his sentiments pose a threat to that valuation of Caribbean culture by outsiders riding current trends rather than respecting cultural traditions.

Join Matthew Sweet in the Caribbean -- well, not literally but certainly intellectually. He'll be discussing the region's history with the cultural commentator, Joshua Jelly-Schapiro, whose new book, Island People, is already being compared to V S Naipaul. Does it make sense to think of the Caribbean as a cohesive region rather than a collection of very individual islands? To help settle this question Matthew and Joshua are joined by Colin Grant, author of I & I - the Natural Mystics and the Jamaican poet and novelist Kei Miller who'll be reading from his acclaimed new novel, Augustown, and his Forward Prize Winning poetry collection, The Cartographer Tries to Map a Way to Zion. To round things off the actor and writer, Lavern Archer and the director, Anton Phillips will be in the studio to let you in on one of the stage's best kept secrets -- the wildly popular vernacular theatre from Jamaica that's been packing out the likes of the Manchester Opera House since the late Eighties. Kei Miller's novel is called Augustown. Joshua Jelly-Schapiro's non fiction exploration is called Island People The Caribbean and The World. Colin Grant's book about Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer is called , I &I - The Natural MysticsProducer: Zahid Warley

 Listen to Trevor Miller tell his journey with Prince Buster Live Chat : Honoring a Reggae Icon PRINCE BUSTER  Music Legacy Cecil Bustamente Campbell OD (24 May 1938), better known by the stage name Prince Buster, is a Jamaican singer-songwriter and producer. He is regarded as one of the most important figures in the history of ska and rocksteady music.  In the early 1940s Campbell was sent to live with his grandmother in rural Jamaica where his family's commitment to the Christian faith gave him his earliest musical experiences in the form of church singing as well as private family prayer and hymn meetings. Returning to live at Orange Street while still a young boy, Campbell attended the Central Branch School and St. Anne's School. While at school Campbell performed three or four times a week at the Glass Bucket Club as part of Frankie Lymon's Sing and Dance Troupe; rock 'n' roll-themed shows were popular during the 1950s, with the Glass Bucket Club establishing a reputation as the premier music venue and social club for Jamaican teenagers at that time. Upon leaving school he found himself drawn to the ranks of followers that supported thesound system of Tom the Great Sebastian. Jamaican sound systems at that time were playing American rhythm 'n' blues and Campbell credits Tom the Great Sebastian with his first introduction to the songs and artists that would later influence his own music: the Clovers' "Middle of the Night", Fats Domino's "Mardi Gras in New Orleans", the Griffin Brothers featuring Margie Day, and Shirley & Lee caribbeanradioshow.com

Sparrow was born in the fishing village of Grand Roy, Grenada, on July 9, 1935. He moved to Trinidad with his mother, his father having relocated there in 1937, and grew up in Port of Spain.His songs such as Jean and Dinah, May May, Sa Sa Yea, Unity, Melda O, Jail, Pay as You Earn 'PAYE', Age is Just a Number, Drunk and Disorderly, Wanted Dead or Alive, Human Rights, Sexy Marajhin, Capitalism Gone Mad, The Lizard, The More the Merrier, and countless others, are just some of his best known and best praised songs. His songs have put him in the spotlight and earned him worldwide recognition. He is still a prolific performer today, and shows no sign of stopping.The Mighty Sparrow has a string of credits to his name. Chief of the Yorubas, which means "Chief Omo Wale of Ikoy" as he is known throughout Nigeria, and in New York, the late Mayor Ed Koch proclaimed March 18 the Mighty Sparrow Day. With honourary doctorate degrees, doctor of letters from the University of the West Indies, he was inducted into the Sunshine Awards Calypso and Steelband Music Hall of Fame on June 24. Then Brooklyn borough president, Howard Folder, proclaimed June 24, Mighty Sparrow Day. We can take some beauty lessons from him too, especially when it comes to keeping his great smile. His face is still instantly recognizable by multiple generations of fans. The man is a fashion icon and trendsetter within the calypso and soca music industry. There should be a musical about his life; let's hope that someone will produce it soon. Dr Slinger Francisco, the legendary Mighty Sparrow, or as he is fondly known "Birdie", a West Indian calypso icon, celebrates his 81st birthday on Saturday.

It’s easy to conjure images of paradise when thinking of the Caribbean. The region is know for its lovely beaches, temperate weather, and gorgeous landscapes. For the people who live there, however, living in paradise means dealing with tourists, inequality, exploitation, and corruption. While many scholars have published critiques of Caribbean tourism ranging from measured to withering, the voices of Caribbean people, living in the region or abroad, are rarely evident. Angelique V. Nixon‘s Resisting Paradise: Tourism, Diaspora, and Sexuality in Caribbean Culture (U Press of Mississippi, 2015 ) explores the many ways in which Caribbean authors, artists, workers, filmakers, educators and activists have understood, worked with, and challenged the foundations of a tourist economy.

Out of many, One! We are a rich people, culturally diverse, but geographically, unified. Historically, through Colonialism, Paternalism and Imperialism, we have amassed a beautifully complex, but painful story. Who better to tell our "Truths", but you and me, US! And as living "documents", we have a duty and a right to pass on our stories, to our children, in hopes of sharing our mutual struggles and joys, so they can pass it on to their children, building a strong foundation of our past, as we dance on into our future! This show is dedicated to the complex, but compelling stories of our lives, as Caribbean people! As a Jamaican, while living and traveling around the world, I learned first hand that our Culture, Food, Music, History and Spirit inspires people from many facets of life.
