What a bucolic look at a beautiful Island. I remember traveling on Pan American back in the 70"s. It is a blessing to see how the Island is still so colorful and inviting. Year round hospitality.... I miss St. Lucia so much
My Granny worked in the Market, i wish i could see her she is one of them woman, cant wait to show my dad this video. it was the year he left to come to London and thank god or i would not of been born to of made this comment:) One love to the Dusauzay and the Cenac Family my people.
Wow...such a paradise ....1960 twenty years before my time.... Lolol..... Certain places I can't make out..... How much the place have changed in fifty years.....nice to see the place back in time
Don't you wonder what the white people thought about us back then. Seeing how they treated the black people in their countries. St Lucia is very beautiful yes but this video did not age well knowing the climate of the black experience on the continents at the time. We look like happy slaves, not once did they show us or anyone who looked like us enjoying what the hotels had to offer. See how wholesome our carnival costumes were compared to now.
7:14 I’m so shocked to see women back then used to carry 2 bulks of bananas on their head and women now can’t even carry 2 big packets of tissue of toilet paper from Mega J.
Who else noticed how decent the carnival costumes were compared to what it is now?
They certainly look different to those of the current era, but I would hesitate to make a moral judgement as to decency.
Riblo Lowski I do. This was a time when women had respect for themselves.
Riblo Lowski I did and the dancing!
I was thinking the same thing...it went from nice and decent to....well uk
I love this video! My husband is Lucian. How lovely.
What I noticed is how hard the women work to help build up the country
