- APPRECIATING CALLALOO SOUP: St. Martin as an expression of the compositeness of Life beyond the guiding fictions of racism, sexism, and class discrimination Francio Guadeloupe Erwin Wolthuis Estudios Culturales St Schools Callaloo cultural diversity Maarten & Saint Martin Callaloo soup is both a Caribbean and outernational dish. Different wherever and whoever prepares it, Callaloo can be understood as an invitation to appreciate the different interconnected worlds that our collective experience of western colonialism and resistance has brought about. It can simultaneously be understood as the composite nature of the world and the dynamic of Life that the triad of racism, sexism, and class discrimination seeks to obfuscate and yet unwittingly strengthens. Taking the Callaloo soup as a guiding metaphor, the authors highlight new ways of undoing practices of self and other oppressions on the island of Sint Maarten. Their self-re flective and self-re flexive exercises are fed by their experiences of doing fieldwork among students attending a secondary school. The authors envision this text as an open invitation to rethink Saint Martin & Sint Maarten (St. Martin) as both a separate broth with multiple cultural ingredients (persons and their expressions), and as an emerging element in the Callaloo soup that is the world. 2016 artículo científico 1518-6784 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=159148014010 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1591 Revista Brasileira do Caribe application/pdf Universidade Federal do Maranhão Revista Brasileira do Caribe (Brasil) Num.32 Vol.17
