Win'rush Pickney Prosody explores the experiences of the Windrush Generation and its offspring. In this text, Patois is the vehicle used to navigate a complex social history. Highlighting a few dichotomies that may have led to the Windrush Scandal. It explores the co-dependency between Jamaica and the British crown. The 'growth' of realisation that much has been removed from the Land of Wood and Water - educationally, financially, technologically, historically, medically, with little returned; The 'development' of Rastafari men and women and their initial call for Reparation and Repatriation. The islands are now, 'republic boun'; within a Caribbean region that has evolved out of puberty and now steps into its adulthood. Love Lettahs celebrates Frederick Dowie, my grandfather, a World One veteran, who then, loyally served King and country. Section titles are: ¿ History; ¿ Life; ¿ Windrush Generation; ¿ J'cans & World Wars. Themes veined through the text are: ¿ Patois language ¿ Belonging ¿ Dsplacement ¿ Love & Marriage ¿ Femicide/Matricide ¿ Domestic violence ¿ Politics (both sides of the Atlantic). The reader decides whether a Caribbeans' life has improved (the new tribe - created for a 'New World') or, is Caricom justified in its call for unity when putting forth, 'The Ten Point Reparations Programme'. See poem entitled: 'Reparation'. Not much has been heard about the experience of The 'Windrush' child. A voice silenced during the recent Windrush Scandal and subsequent debates. Through a plethora of themes, the Win'rush Pickney's voice is explored. Telling the tale of Jambrits who still feel the brunt of the immigrant experience. Recruited by the British to rebuild a beleaguered post-war economy, the Windrush Generation were reliable, hard-working, vibrant human beings. They were, 'The People Who Came.' Win'rush Pickney Prosody celebrates what it is to be a Jambrit living in the African Diaspora.
