its kinda of sad that the only reason Indians and Africans ended up in Trinidad, was as slaves to cultivate cane for the British. and after their rule was lifted, we were already settled and grown use to the land, refusing to make the journey back to our native INDIA AND AFRICA, the generations grew into a new breed. TRINIS! . Non The Less I LOVE YOU TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO. GOD BLESS
BREAKING NEWS-- BANK RUN -TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO WEST INDIES, REPUBLIC BANK, ROYAL BANK, FIRST CITIZEN BANK and SCOTIABANK thousand of customers simultaneously secretly withdrawing all their funds, because they believe that the banks might go into bankruptcy, and for fear of the bank becoming insolvent and that they the customer, will lose all their money.people are putting their money in smaller credit union banks or keeping it at home.
Totally enjoyed this video. I would love to get anything on calypso, steel pan and carnival in the early 1900s, especially on calypso. Thanks. This is great!!
What a rare piece of history. Trinidad was truly a paradise before the greed and commercialism set it. I guess that's what we call progress. I weep for humanity.
this is really amazing wish i could have been around that time so beautiful and peaceful. its ashame that the youths of present Trinidad and Tobago will never know how beautiful this nation was at one point in time. Bring Back The Ole Time Days.
@foreignmovies Everything I have of Carnival has been already posted. I do have another load of film of Carnival 1958 at Skinner Park in San Fernando which shall be posted sometime soon.
Just superb. Delightful. Beautiful footage. I wanted it to go on longer! I especially liked the scene of the open tram on the Queen's Park Savannah! Fantastic. Thanks for posting this film on YouTube!
