Module 2 (Blog Post #6)

So far, in my research for gender and race relations in Antigua and Barbuda, a few highlights I have found, include the constant violence that goes unreported due to the fact that many victims are afraid to speak out because they do no want to be abused again. I would also like to highlight the racial divide that once existed in Antigua and Barbuda. Some races were seen as better than others just because of lighter skin pigmentation. An interesting fact that I found while researching, was that husbands potentially face up to 15 years of imprisonment for non consented sexual intercourse with their wives. The main challenges that I am facing would be finding enough information involving race. It has become quite difficult to find certain information on race in Antigua and Barbuda. With that said, I plan on researching more facts and information on race relations in Antigua and Barbuda.
