Resumo(s)
In an article in honour of Harry Hoetink, author of Two Variants of
Caribbean Race Relations, Sidney Mintz suggested that white/nonwhite
is ‘the global underlying distinction in Caribbean societies,
even when it not referred to’ (Mintz 2005, 45). For Mintz, ethnic
labels such as ‘Potogee’ (Portuguese) in colonial British Guyana
and ‘Jew’ in Jamaica might serve two classificatory purposes: ‘it
[the label] not only says members of the group are not simply
white; it also seems to imply on social grounds that they are something
less than whites’ (Mintz 2005, 47).
