Abstract:
Studying behavioral disturbances of dementia across cultures allows us to identify commonalities and differences that may be useful in determining the best approach to managing these problems. However, what we tend to find in cross-cultural studies is that the best approach may not be the same approach, given the different prevalence of and levels of tolerance for various behavioral problems. These differences are apparent in the authors' studies of four populations—Jamaicans in Kingston; Cree in Northern Manitoba, Canada; Yoruba in Ibadan, Nigeria; and African Americans in the United States. The Jamaicans in this study live in a poor suburb of Kingston, the Cree live in two fairly small, isolated communities in Northern Manitoba, and the Yoruba live in Ibadan, a city of more than 1 million people. The Yoruba community the authors are studying, although concentrated in the city center, functions much like a village. The African-American population resides in Indianapolis, Indiana, a moderately sized city of approximately 1 million people.

Abstract:
The teaching stock within the Caribbean region has been eroded by migration to developed countries. Higher potential earnings are one of the motivating factors to move abroad, but little is known about the extent of the income disparity between countries in the Caribbean and popular destination countries. Teacher salary comparisons are undertaken between selected countries in the Caribbean; Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, St. Lucia, and Jamaica and popular destination countries, namely; United Kingdom, United States, and Canada using a purchasing power parity (PPP) exchange rate. Results show that newly qualified teachers can earn substantially more abroad, with Canada paying over twice the PPP adjusted salary compared to that offered in Jamaica (133.1%) and Suriname (110.6%). The United States offers the highest earning increases for mid- and late career teachers at over three times that offered in Jamaica (214.5%) and Suriname (223.4%). Canada is a close second across all Caribbean countries, whilst the United Kingdom offers the smallest salary differentials at 153.6% for Jamaica and 64.8% for St. Lucia. The study further reveals that there are salary disparities within the Caribbean, which may be a motivating factor for intra-regional migration.

Abstract:
Despite perfunctory characterisation of Canada’s Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP) as a ‘triple win’, scholars and activists have long admonished its lack of government oversight, disrespect for migrant rights and indentureship of foreign workers. This article contends that the SAWP is predicated upon naturalised, deeply engrained and degrading beliefs that devalue Black lives and labour. Based on twenty months’ ethnographic fieldwork in the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, Canada, it reveals the extent to which anti-Black racism permeates, organises and frustrates workers’ lives on farms and in local communities. It situates such experiences, which workers characterise as ‘prison life’, in the context of anti-Black immigration policy and the workings of racial capitalism. This ethnography of Caribbean migrants not only adds perspective to scholarship hitherto focused on the experiences of Latino workers, but it also reinforces critical work on anti-Black racism in contemporary Canada.

Abstract:
This paper examines the assemblage and reassemblage of citizenship deservingness in Canada in the past few decades. By citizenship deservingness, I refer to the ways immigrant and racialized persons are accorded value and opportunity to access and retain formal citizenship status, including the right to remain in Canada. In order to make this argument, I examine the response to a 2012 shooting in Scarborough, an “inner suburb” of Toronto, Canada. I situate the shooting responses alongside policy and discursive changes that have made it easier to deport permanent residents from Canada if they have committed certain criminal acts. As scholars have noted, the targets of such policies are often the same individuals profiled and typecast as committing criminal acts—namely, immigrant and racialized men. In the Scarborough shooting, Jamaican men were specifically criminalized and targeted for exile from the city and country. My analysis demonstrates how, through this process, discourses of race and space came together to produce and legitimate policy changes that continue to erode the rights accorded to permanent residents and citizens.

Abstract:
The New World species of the subgenus Cerodontha (Xenophytomyza) Frey are reviewed. There are two species in the region: C. (X.) biseta (Hendel) (western Palearctic, eastern Nearctic, Jamaica); and C. (X.) illinoensis (Malloch) (eastern Nearctic). Both species are illustrated and a key is provided to distinguish the species. Cerodontha (Xenophytomyza) biseta was apparently introduced recently to the eastern Nearctic and several new locality records in eastern Canada and northeastern United States are noted here; the record of C. (X.) biseta from Jamaica represents the first record of the subgenus from the Neotropical region.

Abstract:
In this article, attention is given to the key role that Pentecostal faith plays in the cultural identity reconstruction process of some Jamaican Canadian immigrant women. For many immigrant groups, religious faith represents an anchor of hope for coping with post-migration life stressors. Although, once emotionally caged in a new socio-cultural location in Canada, the women portrayed in this summary of my research demonstrate great fortitude and endurance in navigating a new cultural and socio-historical context. Their untold stories of resilience through religious faith led them to deeper critical awareness, scholarly accountability, and recognition of their truths.

Abstract:
This ethnographic thesis project critically examines the experiences of Jamaican migrant farmworkers employed in the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia via the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP). First introduced in 1966, the SAWP is the oldest and longest-standing labour migration regime in Canada and the principal agricultural stream of the federal Temporary Foreign Worker Program. Drawing upon the salient work of numerous activists and scholars who have contended that the SAWP facilitates a form of transnational indentureship by bonding migrant workers to their employers, I argue that the SAWP farm site constitutes a peculiar and totalizing institution that capitalizes on the unfreedom of black labour. I apply critical race theory to situate workers’ experiences of surveillance, immobilization, and hyper-exploitation in addition to their characterization of farm life as “prison life” within a postslavery context. I conclude that only by acknowledging the role of racism and its relationship to the border can we ever hope to truly achieve justice for migrant farmworkers in Canada.

Abstract:
Cette thèse étudie les spécificités du discours produit par les femmes écrivains de la diaspora afro-caribéenne au Canada et aux Etats-Unis, notamment chez Edwidge Danticat, Nalo Hopkinson, Jamaica Kincaid, Paule Marshall, M. NourbeSe Philip, et Olive Senior. La position ambivalente de ces auteures qui sont culturellement dedans et dehors influence leurs écrits, en prose comme en poésie, dans lesquels elles revendiquent leurs histoires, leurs corps et leurs langues. La discussion s’attache à observer les opérations discursives en démontrant que les auteures étudiées articulent de nouvelles formes de subjectivité et prouvent que la formation des identités culturelles ne dépend pas d’un territoire stable, mais plutôt d’un espace culturel mobile, voire volatile. D’une part, ces femmes réécrivent le passé dans un discours qui déstabilise les versions hégémoniques de l’histoire et d’autre part, elles cherchent à représenter leurs corps en dépassant leur dimension matérielle et choisissent d’embrasser leur schizophrénie culturelle. Leurs projets brisent le silence et libèrent les subjectivités incontrôlées à travers la création de polyphonies incarnées, de multiples contre discours et d’énoncés non-conformistes. Les constructions discursives de leur moi ne pouvant en effet se manifester qu’à l’extérieur des terminologies canoniques, ces auteures s’inscrivent dans une démarche de résistance au discours unique et privilégient a fortiori une rhétorique hétéroglossique. En somme, cette analyse comparative est innovante en ce qu’elle démontre que mémoires, langues et identités diasporiques sont intimement liées, et qu’au delà de leurs démarches respectives et des stratégies discursives qui leur sont propres, ces auteures sont des écrivains du limbo qui, à la manière des danseurs de limbo, transforment l’instabilité en une expérience de recréation artistique. Elles placent leurs représentations au coeur d’une dynamique empreinte de mouvement, de fluidité, de pluralité et d’hybridité, et prouvent clairement que la diaspora féminine caribéenne peut faire entendre sa voix
This dissertation examines the specific discourse produced by diasporic African Caribbean women writers in Canada and the USA, namely Edwidge Danticat, Nalo Hopkinson, Jamaica Kincaid, Paule Marshall, M. NourbeSe Philip, and Olive Senior. These authors’ ambivalent positions as both cultural insiders and outsiders are conveyed through their prose and poetry, in which they reclaim their histories, bodies and tongues. The thesis highlights discourse operations in demonstrating that the selected authors articulate new forms of subjectivity, hence proving that cultural identities do not depend on static territories but rather on mobile and even volatile cultural spaces. Besides reconstructing the past through a discourse that truly unsettles hegemonic versions of history, African Caribbean diasporic women writers represent their bodies beyond materiality and choose to embrace their cultural schizophrenia. Their projects consist in un-silencing the unruly selves through the creation of embodied polyphonies, multiple counter-voices and anti-conformist utterances. The discursive constructions of the self therefore occur outside of canonical terminology, as these women writers resist single-voiced discourse and favour heteroglossic rhetorics. Ultimately, this comparative literary analysis is innovative as it proves that diasporic memories, tongues and identities are interlinked, and that beyond their respective agendas and personal discursive strategies, these authors are limbo writers who, like limbo dancers, transform instability into a recreative and artistic experience. They inscribe their self-representations into a powerful dialectic of movement, fluidity, plurality and hybridity, and truly demonstrate that the feminine Caribbean diaspora can speak

Abstract:
In Jamaica, sexual acts between men are still punishable by law. Numerous incidents of violence against gay men and lesbians have prompted human rights groups to distinguish it as one of the most homophobic places on earth. There are many cases of gay Jamaican men seeking resettlement and refuge in Canada. While any transition to a new country and culture can be challenging for immigrants, there is limited research that speaks to the experiences of the gay Jamaican men. This paper is based on stories gathered from four gay Jamaican men who came to Canada as refugees and highlights issues of acculturation related to connection with Canadian culture, letting go of the home culture, challenges in support systems and the inability to feel comfortable, confident and settled in the new Canadian environment. The project resulted in a compilation of visual stories and audio clips that were placed on a website (http://queeryingjamaica.tumblr.com/). Using the tools available through social media, the stories provide a source of representation.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the experiences of four single Canadian mothers of Jamaican heritage with respect to their children’s education. Four themes suggested in the literature—beliefs, practices, barriers, and supports—guided the research. The interviews with the mothers largely confirmed previous research in the field. As such, all the mothers believed that it was a shared responsibility between parents and teachers in supporting children’s education. The mothers’ practices included primarily at-home support and to a lesser extent at-school support but did not include strict discipline. The barriers most salient for these mothers were lack of time and resources. To help overcome these barriers, the mothers relied on domestic kin networks. From these findings, the thesis provides implications for both research and practice.

Abstract:
Reggae music facilitated a cultural dialogue between Jamaican migrant and Canadian host in Toronto during the 1970s and 1980s. Exchanges flowed across the city’s ethnic frontier, bridging black and white youth together in an ‘oppositional’ and musical movement. While migrants enacted their Jamaican ethnicity in places where reggae was played, many non-Jamaicans satisfied a curiosity in the music of their migrant friends. This study examines the process of migration of people and music as seen from both the migrant and the host’s perspective. It is as much about black Jamaicans as it is about white Torontonians. Twenty Jamaicans and twenty non-Jamaicans were interviewed for this project. Though reggae became an expected part of Toronto’s musical vernacular, the Canadian version meant different things to different people. Indeed, sometimes the only thread that tied the varied experiences together was that Toronto was the place where reggae happened. Still, as a hybrid, reggae had rather evolved outside of place. It was a transnational musical form, constantly updated by influences traversing the ‘Black Atlantic’ in an on-going and triangular musical conversation. While Jamaican migrants carried their music with them wherever they went, radio and sound systems broadcast British and North American musics back to Jamaica, informing new musics being created there. Simultaneously, Jamaican music was reimagined by West Indian immigrants, their children and even non-Jamaicans living in Britain’s urban centres and, later on, in Toronto. Yet, as popular as it may have been, Reggae Canadiana never reached the heights it might have and was not nearly as successful as its British counterpart. Nevertheless, the majority of migrants in this study believe that an association with reggae music gave them a psychological advantage in their own acculturation process. Reggae music also served as a bridge between migrant and host, without which, many non-Jamaicans believe that they would have had little or no contact with the Jamaican-Canadian community in Toronto. The impact of this contact transcended a shared affection for music and engendered a vital multicultural dialogue that is somewhat removed from Canada’s official governmental version of multiculturalism.

Abstract:
For many years Canada has quietly rationalized importing temporary “low-skilled” migrant labour through managed migration programs to appease industries desiring cheap and flexible labour while avoiding extending citizenship rights to the workers. In an era of international human rights and global competitive markets, the Canadian Seasonal Agricultural Workers Program (SAWP) is often hailed as a “model” and “win-win” solution to migration and labour dilemmas, providing employers with a healthy, just-in-time labour force and workers with various protections such as local labour standards, health care, and compensation. Tracing migrant workers’ lives between Jamaica, Mexico and Canada (with a focus on Ontario’s Niagara Region), this thesis assesses how their structural vulnerability as non-citizens effectively excludes them from many of the rights and norms otherwise expected in Canada. It analyzes how these exclusions are rationalized as permanent “exceptions” to the normal legal, social and political order, and how these infringements affect workers’ lives, rights, and health. Employing critical medical anthropology, workers’ health concerns are used as a lens through which to understand and explore the deeper “pathologies of power” and moral contradictions which underlie this system. Particular areas of focus include workers’ occupational, sexual and reproductive, and mental and emotional health, as well as an assessment of their access to health care and compensation in Canada, Mexico and Jamaica. Working amidst perilous and demanding conditions, in communities where they remain socially and politically excluded, migrant workers in practice remain largely unprotected and their entitlements hard to secure, an enduring indictment of their exclusion from Canada’s “imagined community.” Yet the dynamics of this equation may be changing in light of the recent rise in social and political movements, in which citizenship and related rights have become subject to contestation and redefinition. In analyzing the various dynamics which underlie transnational migration, limit or extend migrants’ rights, and influence the health of migrants across borders, this thesis explores crucial relationships between these themes. Further work is needed to measure these ongoing changes, and to address the myriad health concerns of migrants as they live and work across national borders.

Abstract:
This chapter assesses how the Atlantic world of Dutch and British colonies followed the west European pattern of emancipation. Jews were spread across numerous colonies. The thirteen British colonies were not preponderant: each of the communities of “Curaçao, Surinam and Jamaica had more Jews in the mid-eighteenth century than all of the North American colonies combined.” In the British colonies of Canada, Jamaica, and the thirteen colonies, Jews achieved civil rights largely without controversy or conflict. In contrast, Jews organized and campaigned for political rights. In the early American republic, Jews received rights state by state, in Canada colony by colony. In the United States and Canada, political rights were linked to disestablishment of the church and the enactment of religious equality. In Jamaica, it was entwined with race relations.

Abstract:
Uno de los aspectos más llamativos, al tiempo que complejos de la música rap es lo que conocemos como flow. Diferentes autores como Marc (2008) o Béthune (2004), sobre la estética del rap, hacen referencia a este concepto difícil de definir. Partiendo de su sentido más orgánico, en tanto que líquido en movimiento, el flow en el rap requiere estar provisto de enorme y cristalina vitalidad en el recitado de los versos, lo que le confiere uno de los aspectos más atractivos, al tiempo que complejos, en este tipo de música. Procedente de la locución americana to rap, entre chismorrear o darle al pico o, simplemente contar cualquier cosa, el rap song puede definirse como la dicción medio cantada y medio hablada de textos elaborados, rimados y ritmados producida sobre una base musical de mezclas de extractos de otras fuentes sonoras, denominadas samplers. Esta manifestación como tal se materializa en una performance que se lleva a cabo en la calle, surgida en los 70 en Nueva York (Lapassade et Rousselot, 1998, p.9). El rap debe su exégesis a la música popular jamaicana, siendo el género demandado en los 70 entre la militancia negra estadounidense. Ya casi en los 80, observamos el resultado de esta música capaz de mezclar baile y política. No olvidemos que, al igual que el jazz, el blues, el soul o el rhythm and blues, el rap es parte integrante del arte negro americano. A diferencia de lo que pasó en los EEUU, el rap francés no comienza en la calle, sino que estaba dirigido o bien a los media o al show. Abd Al Malik, uno de los raperos más líricos, sensibles y delicados en la escena francesa, imprime a sus canciones un tratamiento cristalino y personal con su particular flow.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Cervical cancer ranked the fourth most cancer incidence in women. WHO announced that 311,000 women died from the disease in 2018. Cervical cancer screening uptake remains low, especially in low- and middle-income countries. This scoping review aimed to investigate the motivation for early detection of cervical cancer in women of reproductive age. Subjects and Method: A scoping review method was conducted in eight stages including (1) Identification of study problems; (2) Determining priority problem and study question; (3) Determining framework; (4) Literature searching; (5) Article selection; (6) Critical appraisal; (7) Data extraction; and (8) Mapping. The research question was identified using population, exposure, and outcome(s) (PEOS) framework. The search included PubMed, ResearchGate, and grey literature through the Google Scholar search engine databases. The inclusion criteria were English-language and full-text articles published between 2010 and 2020. A total of 275 articles were obtained by the searched database. After the review process, twelve articles were eligible for this review. The quality of searched articles was appraised by Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal tools. The data were reported by the PRISMA flow chart. Results: Seven articles from developing countries (Jamaica, Nepal, Africa, Nigeria, Libya, and Uganda) and five articles from developed countries (England, Canada, Sweden, and Japan) met the inclusion criteria with cross-sectional studies. The selected existing studies discussed 3 main themes related to motivation to early detection of cervical cancer, namely sexual and reproductive health problems, diseases, and influence factors. Conclusion: Motivation for cervical cancer screening uptake is strongly related to the early detection of cervical cancer among reproductive-aged women. Client-centered counseling and comprehensive sexual and reproductive health education play an important role in delivering information about the importance of cervical cancer screening. Keywords: motivation, cervical cancer, screening, early detection, reproductive-aged Correspondence: Siti Nurul Khotimah.
