News and intelligence for the Caribbean diaspora.
A free email from Tradewinds Brief. Top stories from Guyana, Jamaica, Trinidad, and Barbados, plus one explainer and one practical guide each issue. Built for people who left and the people who stayed.
What you get
Top stories, four countries
The most important news from Guyana, Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, and Barbados — selected, sourced from national outlets and Reuters / AP, and written for diaspora context.
One explainer per issue
A pattern, a policy, or a story underneath the headlines. The kind of analysis that takes a week of reading the regional press and condenses it into ten minutes.
One practical guide
Sending money home. Buying property. Navigating the school system from abroad. The things you actually need to do, walked through plainly.
