Everyone wants to come to the Caribbean for vacation but who is there to help when hurricanes destroy the islands?!
I need y’all to act like you love the Caribbean for real and SHARE, DONATE, offer your time, support, expertise in whatever ways you can.
First of all… “Caribbean music” is not a genre 🥴 it’s called reggae, soca, dancehall, zouk, calypso, chutney, bachata, parang, merengue and the list goes on.
No matter the size of your platform, big or small, PLEASE share the news of the devastation on our sister isles 🇬🇩 Carriacou and Petite Martinique!
Please share the news of the devastation on SVG and the Grenadines 🇻🇨 — Union Island, Bequia, Mayreau, Canouan, etc.
Caribbean athletes are competing against countries who sent hundreds of their athletes to play!
St. Lucia 🇱🇨 has 4 competitors
Grenada 🇬🇩 has 6 competitors
Dominica 🇩🇲 has 4 competitors
And all 3 islands took home medals today! 🤩🙌🏾 WOW!

Nothing beats an authentic Caribbean party. I'm talking soca 'til you're drippin' sweat, a little dancehall and power oldies and some groovy/reggae to end the night. West Indians do it better. It's just a fact.
I know it can be a bit confusing if you’re not familiar with the Caribbean but…
Carriacou (of Grenada 🇬🇩)
Canouan (of SVG 🇻🇨)
Curaçao 🇨🇼
And Cancun (Mexico 🇲🇽) are all different places.
Carriacou 🇬🇩 and Canouan 🇻🇨 were both devastated by

Money didn’t stop them from getting coronavirus. Did y’all not see how many Iranian officials also have the disease? And an Italian football player? And Rudy Gobert??? The virus doesn’t care about money.
Please consider donating pads, tampons, NEW underwear and bras, toilet paper, diapers and wipes, towels, rags, NEW pillows, reusable water bottles, lotion, soap, deodorant, sunscreen, toothpaste and toothbrushes.
Also, a variety of canned and pantry food items.

I was saddened to receive news that Petite Martinique 🇬🇩 was forgotten from a relief effort. The island is small but its residents deserve the same support.
Side eyeing the folks who visited Grenada on a very recent brand trip but not a peep about the hurricane. K. If you loved the island so much you’d say something in support at minimum. But I forget my island only exists for y’all’s content.
Grenada has been in countless publications in 2023/2024 as a MUST VISIT destination. I need all these platforms to be posting about hurricane relief as well. If you wanna pose on Grand Anse Beach for instagram, you better be sharing aid for PM and C’cou.
OMG!!! ⭐️🇬🇩 ANDERSON PETERS 🇬🇩⭐️ just placed 3rd 🥉 in the Men’s Javelin Throw with an impressive 88.54m!!! 🥉🤯 Giving Grenada 🇬🇩 our 5th Olympic medal overall! ❤️😭 And our 1st medal EVER in the Javelin Throw!!! 😳 💫 🇬🇩 LET’S GOOOOO!!!!!

“Hi sorry about your hurricane, can I have an all expenses paid trip to your island?” … Are y’all losing it?
Lmao. I just revisited and I needed that laugh today fr. Pls 😭 what are y’all on.

Happy birthday to me! 🥳💖 Last year on my 28th birthday, I was mourning the loss of our first baby. As I enter year 29, I’m so excited that Roy and I get a chance to be parents again. 🥹🌈 Our rainbow baby is coming (very) soon!

I think another disturbing layer of this whole carnival saga is people’s perception of West Indians as loose people in general. I don’t doubt that this will encourage other Americans to visit the islands because they think they can get away with sexually harassing women.
I would like to spotlight ✨ PETITE MARTINIQUE✨ 🇬🇩 (pity-Martin-eek) our smaller sister isle. A little under 1000 people call this 586 acre island their home.
It was destroyed by
#HurricaneBeryl
and we need your help to restore it to the beautiful island it once was.

The Caribbean is majority Black but if you were born and raised in the Caribbean, non-Black West Indians are not a surprise to you. People of all races exist on the islands. South Asian, East Asian, Hispanic/Latino and white.
You can be West Indian and white.
We’re HOMEOWNERS! 😭🏡
Roy and I closed on our first home last Friday and I still can’t believe it. 2020 has been wild but at least we were able to put our energy into our biggest investment yet — building our house. ❤️ I’m so proud of us.
What’s next? A free doubles with every

purchase?! 🥴😭 someone point out Michael B Jordan’s Trini roots fast for me please!!! Cuz I’m not understanding this shit. Is it his grandma who makes the rum cakes???
Hey girlfriend
@ChloeBailey
I know you love the Caribbean, especially St. Lucia!
Can you pls share about the damage on the islands from
#HurricaneBeryl
The Caribbean is very in line with Trump’s beliefs btw... y’all sit there and talk about drama in the US while y’all can’t even import sex toys or watch your two gay friends tie the knot.

‼️HELP NEEDED‼️ 🇻🇨📍
My friend compiled a list of supplies via Amazon you can purchase to support the community in UNION ISLAND 🇻🇨 Please help if you can! It includes food + body care items. This source is legit.
The road to recovery will be long and challenging and I humbly appeal for your assistance. Your kindness and support during this time will be greatly appreciated. Thank You for your consideration!

Matthew talking about America is on his side… when America is actually on the white man with a mullet’s side lmao. I hope Trevor finds his girl (it’s NOT Chelsea)

Caribbean family — sadly a lot of you are familiar with hurricanes. Pls rally to support Grenada 🇬🇩 if needed when this is all over. 🤞🏾 I’m hoping that’s not necessary but if it is, consider making plans to support your Caribbean siblings and cousins.
Mainland Grenada is gonna start bringing aid to C’cou and PM this morning per the office of the PM. Someone is traveling to C’cou with a satellite phone to make contact. Hang tight if you’re waiting to hear from family members! 🫂 I know it’s so scary not to hear from loved ones.
Great men exist. Gentle, loving, patient men. Men who will make plans and promises and keep them. Men who will bring light to your life. Men who will be proud of you and respect you as you are.
Please remember that.
Since PCOS is trending, I’ll share something I’ve come across often. Some doctors love telling people with PCOS that they can’t have children. You absolutely can. It may take a little longer but it’s not impossible.
Separately…
I’m going to need y’all to SHAME the people who are selling $10 water in Carriacou to these people whose homes were destroyed. Nah boy. Y’all are gonna piss me off today.
Hey boo!

I know you love you some Zoes 🇭🇹❤️ Can you pls share the word about the devastation caused by
#HurricaneBeryl
on the Caribbean so far? It’s currently heading towards Haiti and Jamaica but the smaller islands of Grenada 🇬🇩 and St. Vincent 🇻🇨 were BADLY damaged!
Hello my Grenadian bother,
@LewisHamilton
! Love the new hairdo by my Grenadian sis 🇬🇩 We love a Greenz link up.
Can you pls share about the devastation caused by
#HurricaneBeryl
to Grenada — Carriacou, Petite Martinique 🇬🇩 and the Grenadines 🇻🇨? We need your help.
Update — a family member has confirmed the passing of one man in Grenada 🇬🇩 who was struck by a tree during the storm. No name provided.

You cannot be mentally sound. Your help is NOT needed attached to this nasty of a spirit. Omg 😳🚫🚫🚫 Your attitude is horrendous and your logic is OFF. Why would we pay you to come provide support on the islands???
We don’t need you. Move along.
2 showers in the Caribbean is normal business. As is 2 showers on your period, if you get caught in the rain, cuz people have sex, when you’re sick, before and after a day outdoors. Etc, etc. It’s not that far fetched of a concept as y’all making it.
I’m pro sex so Zoe possibly engaging in sex tourism does not bother me. She’s grown. My grievance comes from her centering herself in Caribbean culture by producing Soca and dancehall music and essentially making a mockery of it. Know your place.
Happy birthday to me! 🥳 27 tried to wreck me but I made it to 28 in a two-piece on a beach in Aruba 🇦🇼 Thank you for all the sweet messages so far! 🥰 I’m having a blast.
Thank you for the mention of our sister isle, Carriacou. 🇬🇩❤️ Both Carriacou (Cah-rick-oo) and Petite Martinique (pity-martin-eek) of Grenada were devastated by
#HurricaneBeryl
and need help right now!
I will link how you can donate/support below!
It looks like the hurricane Beryl has passed and is running like a Jamaican track star off to another race! Thank you all for your good vibes and prayers. We did not get a direct hit and we are grateful but Carriacou needs help.
We really appreciate what you did for Jamaica the other day
@MrBeast
! We could really use your help 🇬🇩🇻🇨 with spreading the word about the destruction
#HurricaneBeryl
caused. Donations also appreciated!
We’ll be celebrating our 5 year anniversary this year. Half a decade in, when most people are getting a divorce, he’s texting me love notes while I’m asleep. “Words of affirmation” is in my love languages top 3. These little things mean so much to me. I’m blessed to have him.
You mean to tell me that white tiktok girl who got famous off of the renegade dance she stole from a black girl got a Super Bowl commercial AND performed at the NBA All Star dunk competition???
Y’all better stop letting these thieves prosper in 2020! Christopher Columbus ass.
Our sister islands are going through it 😞 Evacuation warnings for Carriacou and Petite Martinique. I don’t know where families are supposed to go. Just hoping everyone can find somewhere safe to stay. SIGH.
