The Caribbean Female: an inconsistent narrative - April 16, 1981 - 12 p.
Discusses the social role and function of the Caribbean Women. Suggest that while the female is the head of the household, females undermine their own authority by creating the illusion of the father as provider to the children. During slavery the equality of the male and female was highlighted by attitudes of the slave master, however, this changed during emancipation.
