Calabash 2009: A View of Us in the Age of Obama
Aired, Podcast, Shows | chris, June 4th, 2009
Recorded Thu, June 04

Jamaican wisdom:
³When a black man becomes President of the USA, pigs will fly. And then
what happened? Swine flu.²

In Philip Womack¹s dispatch from Calabash in the London Telegraph, June
2, 2009.

Click to listen to Chris¹s conversations with Melvin Van Peebles, Xu Xi,
Robert Pinsky and Kwame Dawes. (41 minutes, 19 mb mp3)
This last roundup of memorable voices at the Calabash literary festival
in Jamaica is about us ‹ the second of the big reasons I come. The first
is to hear Caribbean writers at home * even the ones who¹ve become
famous in America like Junot Diaz and Edwidge Danticat, sounding off in
the islands of Bob Marley and Derek Walcott.
