Title Suggestion: Caribbean Women Who Led Quiet Revolutions (1900s History)

Description: Discover the untold history of Caribbean women who led quiet revolutions in the early 1900s. From Nita Barrow to Elma Francois, we reveal the hidden figures who built the foundation for Caribbean resistance and independence.

About This Episode: In this episode of THE HISTORY OF THE CARIBBEAN, we explore the "Heroes and Resistance" that history books often ignore. We dive into the nineteen thirties labor rebellions, the role of market women in Trinidad, and the nursing reforms that changed Barbados. This is a gritty, documentary-style look at the erasure of female leadership in the Caribbean and why their stories are essential to understanding our history today.
