Our focus determines our reality. I am a writer/blogger with a mission to expose the blinders preventing a progressive vision for a healthy and safe Barbados. The people, citizens and tourists, can no longer perish due to a lack of knowledge while the blind lead the blind. I am committed to raising awareness for the purposes of social reform and for the sake of Bajan children who are being abused and become abusers. I am focused. View all posts by focusbarbados

A Response to Silence and Denial

The Barbadian Minister of Social Care, Constituency Empowerment and Community Development said that domestic violence in Barbados “‘is often fed by poverty, dependency, lack of education or capacity and the absence of empowerment'” (qtd. in Nation 30 Mar. 2011). However, sources note that the problem of domestic violence affects women of all stratums of society in Barbados (CADRES [2009], 14; Nation 19 May 2010). I have decided to be a voice of empowerment for myself and other survivors of abuse and trauma in Barbados. As noted in the response to the Minister's statement is the fact that this violence effects women whether they meet the criteria he outlined or not, therefore something must be done to add clarity to the discrepancies that perpetuate many abuses in Barbados. I am making my witness statement. While choking me, my Barbadian abuser knowing I couldn't answer him, asked me: ARE YOU GONNA SHUT UP, YES OR NO!?!" That day I felt powerless. Now, hear me out.
