    Caribbean Report 14-04-1995

    The sister programme BBC Caribbean Magazine examined the on-going debate of male and female relationships in the region and the Caribbean diaspora. Black men question why women are so choosy about their partners and black women ask where are all the good men. Carol Orr reports on why black professional women in Britain were increasingly finding it hard to meet compatible partners. A snap shot of some of the views expressed in the previous Caribbean Magazine programme is presented. A discussion with an international footing is held to answer the question on whether there is a war between the sexes within the black community. Women activist, Sharon Atkin, Guyanese-born consultant Wendy Singh, Cameron Duodu, a Ghanaian writer and Vincentian journalist Yvette Collymore comment on the issue and look at history to find a global answer.
