The region experienced near eradication and expulsion of its indigenous populations by European power. Even today there are many intuition/factors that plays a major role in promoting intolerance and mistrust in the Caribbean, such as; religious institution, family, the media and culture. they all play a specialized role to some extent in creating and promoting mistrust and intolerance in today's society and in the Caribbean. ]]> 2019-11-21 15:57:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/414738339 jeromekdeodath https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/414778134 When the Europeans came to the Caribbean, they brought their own religions. The Spanish and French were devout Roman Catholict, while the British were Protestants, many of the slaves were indoctrinated into christianity. Religion as always played a important part in society. In the initial phase of colonisation and exploitation which was in the fifteenth century, the belief system of roman catholicism was the preferred option for the spaniards ( hewitt 37). In that time there were many Catholic clergy who came to the region, they also influence the mind of the people about the religion more so force it up on them. All religious or " prestigious" school in Trinidad and Tobago has the option to select 20% of students who have recently wrote the School Base Assessment exam some of these student may not even have the academic qualification required to gain entry into these instution however because of their religion and economics status who "who they know" they have been selected to study at the school. In Addition this may cause mistrust and intolerance in society or more so the caribbean because students who has the academic qualification for entry have been denied the opportunity to pursue their academic aspiration at their school of choice this may be because of their religious beliefs or social status.

Mark's describe religion as "opium of the people". Many person in the wide variety of fields are concerned with how to account for religion and it origin, its development, and even its persistence in modern society. According to marx, religion is an expression of the material realities and economic injustice. therefore problem that affect religion most of the time affect society. He also said that religion is used by oppressors to make people feel "better" about there distress they may be experiencing due to being poor or exploited, although i agree with him i believe that there are more reason for person not trusting the other religious institution. They are many religious institution such as churches, that condemn carnival and try influencing the members that playing carnival is a sin. Therefore misleading the people and because of their religious belief they may watch other person different or disregard them. In addition there are other religious institution 
that condemn other person religion for examplee; don't go to a hindu prayers or dont eat the pursad or "something bad might happened to you". This is what society has thought us, you would think that religious institution would be accepting to other religious but...instead they are promoting hate and misleading information to the people which is therefore putting persons mind at a state od disequilibium. Religion is one of these social instution which are dependent upon the material and econmic in a given society.

The role in of family in the Caribbean......African-Caribbean families, a great number of families in the caribbean are from an african backgroung, and came as slaves to the region. most of them settled in Jamaica, Barbados, and other Caribbean island. Indian-Caribbean families...in the traditional Indian-Caribbean family, the roles of family members are clearly delineated. the father is seen as the head of the family, the authority figure and the primary breadwinner. he has the final authority in the most matters. in general males are valued more than female and are seen as the primary disciplinarians and decision makrers( seegobin 19) .This has always been an issues since the unset of time when the male slave would go out on the plantation and cleared the land and most if not all the time the women would stay at the masters estate and do house work some would cook and clean for their masters and take care of the childrens. In the caribbean for a long period it was there culture that women would stay at home, women would have to take care of the children this goes back in the days of Taino where the women would proform task such as crop cultivation, spinning and weaving of cotton preparation food and also child rearing. In addition salves women had to take care of the masters family they were workers; mother and sexual partners. Slave women were either especially oppressed or comparatively privileged, they were producers and reproducers. ]]> 2019-11-22 16:07:48 UTC https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/415342902 jeromekdeodath https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/415432225 Traditionally, women were considered to be full-time homemakers. their responsibilities were to take care of their children and family. however over the years the role in the family has change. now..in today's society women are becoming educated more women are now getting literate and they are also pursuing higher education in society, because of this many more opportunity has arise for them to work. they are also play a role when it comes to family decision making. women now bear less children than before, long ago women would be pregnant all the time but today you will find that family now have one or two children only. women now gives birth without marriage. ]]> 2019-11-22 18:21:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/415432225 jeromekdeodath https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/415539097 Women now have a voice, unlike before. Families are no more male-dominated like men women also make major life decisions. women have stood against dowry and domestic violence.child marriage is being stopped in many country. Men now play a role in child raising and household activities just like women. both men and women now share the role in the home for example men now stay at home and take care of the children. This promote intolerance for them men in the household mainly because men are now questioning their role in society the are not doing the things that a "man suppose to do"  like being the main breadwinner in the family sometimes the wife may make more money than the man all this add to the man feeling lees of his role. This is because women can now stand tall like men and get equal opportunities in everything.]]> 2019-11-22 21:48:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/415539097 jeromekdeodath https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/415545934 Cultural mistrust is an attitudinal response to historical and personal oppression in which people of color do not trust white institutional, personal and social. That's one way to define cultural mistrust however there are many ways; person may sometime judge other based on there culture also known as ethnocentrism. Ethnocentrism is a major factor in the division among members of different ethnicities. race and religions. Many person in the caribbean belive that their religion, culture and race is superior to the other. Someone whos ethnocentric belives that they are better than other individuals for reason based solely on their heritage. this goes back in times of slavery when the spanish judge the indigenous and give their own perspective eg. spaniards declared often that Neo-Indian women were highly sexuslised, how they dressed, lack of covering they  conclude that they were promiscuous. In addition this still happens in todays society. Expecially in the caribbean. As a proud hundu in society i was never thought to look down on others culture or judge others by their spiritual beliefs. in fact, i actually attended a christian primary school and then went on to further my education at an catholic institution, therefore i was introduced to all aspects of religion and different cultures. Our country or Trinidad and Tobago, today is full of diversity we are blessed with all sorts of people from different walk of life, we share the same culture.... Trinidad and Tobago is one culture we , we love "ah lime"(to hang out with friends) playing mass on carnival Monday and Tuesday . have you ever ask yourself.. we are all one when its comes to carnival and even in the time of helping our country, i remember some years ago some places in Trinidad was under water due to heavy rain and  the whole country came together. why do we divided ourselves because of other's spiritual beliefs? or even if someone might have a different way of life from us? why don't we respect them for the way they live? i'll tell you...this is because of  social institution that thought us how things are suppose to be. we are thought to follow one part and don't cross part with anything other than what we have been thought we try to be what society what society expected of us and not want we want society to accept. Political parties has a lot to do with the split of race in the Caribbean country more so in Trinidad and Tobago they make all sorts of promise and never accomplish them. this is one of the main reason why we mistrust other and the government in society.

According to Lloyd Braithwaite " the main reason reason for this appears to be that these various ethnic groups enter a society which was already stratified very largely on racial lines and one in which the biological division of skin colour played an important part in the differentiation of social class even within the broad boun is determined by race thus during the 19th century and early Early in the century, we had a social stratification of the islands. In which they white and coloured group suprated. The social structure was clearly founded on an ascriptuve-partucularies. It was based on the one hand on the positive evaluation of the white group and on the other on a negative evaluation of the back group. The other group which enter the system, therefore sought to Differentiate themselvesfrom the blacks as much as possible even as an impossibility or a very distant possibility"(Braithwaite 59). The ascriptive value system which prevailed at the time reflected itself in homes, in social and proprietary, clubs in churches and in society on a whole, white and non-white children often went to the same school but did not go to each other homes as a general rule. If one was not white in the major Catholic school, one could not become a school prefect, join the sea scouts or take part in plays unless type cast]]> 2019-11-26 15:50:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/416736368 jeromekdeodath https://padlet.com/jeromekdeodath/hkpgnh054ls9/wish/416776567 Student Name:
