Exploring the Cayman Islands: Culture, Cuisine & Caribbean Adventures

from History of the Caribbeans | Exploring Resilience and Culture · host history experts | Joe & Kevin

They say the Cayman Islands are a paradise — but paradise for whom? This powerful two-part documentary pulls back the curtain on a Caribbean nation known more for its bank accounts than its soul. Why did the Cayman Islands never follow the independence wave that swept the region? How did the descendants of enslaved Africans preserve their identity without plantations or revolution? And what happens when a culture rooted in survival faces erasure by skyscrapers and silence? From sea turtles to offshore trusts, from forgotten graveyards to schoolyard drums, this is the Cayman you’ve never seen. Do you know what paradise is hiding?
