“Caribbean Short Stories: Life Long Ago” by Rosa Veta (a pen name) and “Christianity and Black Oppression: Duppy Know Who Fe Frighten” by Zay D. Green, will be launched at the UWI Open Campus on July 25, beginning at 5 p.m.

“Caribbean Short Stories: Life Long Ago” is a collection of 15 short stories fashioned around the lives of Caribbean youths (particularly in St Vincent and the Grenadines) in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. “Christianity and Black Oppression: Duppy Know Who Fe Frighten” asks: How is it that blacks have been Christianized for more than 400 years and yet blacks are stereotyped as morally and mentally inferior?

Both volumes are edited by Baldwin King and Cheryl Phills King.
