The promise of Caribbean philosophylays in its ability to give shape to an intellectual traditionwhich is both true to and beneficial to Caribbean peoples whilesimultaneously being provocative enough to engage wisdomseekersof various geographies and identities. I argue that onlyby pursuing a New Dialogic which engages the philosophicaltraditions of Africans, African Americans, and Native Americanscan we hope to assert a unique philosophy of value toCaribbean peoples and cultures. The highest form of Caribbeanphilosophy thus must be plural and dialogical. Unfortunately,dialogues in philosophy have been typically characterized bya fixation with Europe, and a lack of consideration of otherphilosophical traditions or sources. The New Dialogic thatI propose here involves a more dynamic model of dialogue toopen or intensify different and multiple avenues of conceptualelaboration.
