If you're anywhere near Leeds, I *highly* recommend visiting Leeds West Indian Carnival on Monday! It's been running since 1967 and is truly something to be experienced - and if you see me, come say hi! I'll probably be behind a camera 😂

Get Ready For Carnival 2022 - Leeds West Indian Carnival

With something for everyone, from the BIG parade that attracts thousands to Leeds every year to the child friendly Prince & Princess Show, Leeds West Indian Carnival is one of the North of England’s biggest annual events.

I'm myself an #ESL speaker since 4-5 years old in #Panama, a country with no official standard form of English, where the only local variants of English are either #PanamanianCreoleEnglish and #GeneralAmericanEnglish, both which are essentially #sociolects in that they're confined to older African-Panamanians of #WestIndian descent and older former #Zonian and thus also risking extinction as living daily languages.

English is my main means of communication on the internet; not Spanish.

This week I've mainly been reading (no.26)

Sam Selvon's The Lonely Londoners (1956/2021) is a time capsule about the plight & responses of #BlackCaribbean immigrants navigating their way round prejudice & #racism in 1950's London. Written in an accessible but evocative #creole this exploration of the #westindian immigrant experience is both entertaining & shocking. It offers an immersive appreciation of what London looked like to a growing ethnic minority.
