Luxe Nike Air Force 1 honors The Dominican Republic

Dominican sneaker heads will have much to celebrate next month, thanks to the upcoming release of Nike’s next Air Force 1 drop “De Lo Mio,” inspired by The Dominican Republic.

The shoe design goes far beyond slapping a flag on the heel and calling it a day. Nike tapped authentic talent for this Air Force 1, created by Dominican-American designer @Ceze.p of luxe streetwear brand Evident Future (also founded by another Dominicano, the late designer and stylist Leo Velasquez).

The design features a clean white upper with subtle red and blue accents (a shout out to the Dominican flag colors). A stunning red-and-blue ombre Nike swoosh logo runs along the side. Mismatched tongue tags feature the words “República” and “Dominicana” on the right and left shoe. The blue and red laces also offer a tongue-in-cheek addition with one-of-a-kind domino clips, which you can stack in rows — a nod to the Dominican community’s massive love of the game. The translucent rubber souls also include a red Nike swoosh and the “De Lo Mio” phrase, which carries emotional significance for the designer.

 

 

“De Lo Mio” technically means “close friend,” but it suggests much more. It also implies a call to community, a declaration that we’re in this together. The shoe’s spirit is all about “helping each other achieve dreams, no matter where you come from, no matter the color of your skin,” said designer @Ceze.P. “Our job as people is to uplift and inspire each other.”

This isn’t the first time Air Force 1 honored Caribbean roots. Several releases featured designs inspired by other islands, including the “West Indies” color way in red, green and gold. The company also featured several designs for Air Force 1 Puerto Rico. The newest release in 2013 feature elaborate graffiti and red baseball stitching. Earlier this year, Nike also released the golden “Caribana” design in honor of the popular Toronto carnival.

The “De Lo Mio” shoes are set to release in November through Nike SNKRS.

Beverley Johnson knows good Jerk

Jerk master Beverley Johnson

Amid the deafening soca music and dance-weary revelers, Beverley Johnson ably manned her Bev’s Jerk Center booth at Miami Carnival. She and a three-member team drove in from Atlanta two days earlier, then set up a stand that did brisk business throughout the event.

“Mi used to this, mi have a passion fi what I do an’ mi like it when people enjoy di food,” said Johnson between frequent trips to her trailer for supplies.

On October 2, five days before Miami Carnival’s closing day, Johnson opened Bev’s Jerk Hut in Atlanta. It is her second restaurant in Georgia; she has operated Bev’s Jerk Center in nearby Decatur since 1992.

Both establishments offer a menu of largely jerked foods, especially chicken and pork. This spicy cuisine, popular for many years among rural and working-class Jamaicans, has also attracted American fans in the last 20 years.

Some of the biggest names in dancehall/reggae have dined at Bev’s Jerk Center, including Beenie Man, Bounty Killer, Spragga Benz and Shabba Ranks. Johnson has also prepared meals for R Kelly and Erykah Badu.

Bev’s Jerk Hut, she explained, is a bit different from her Decatur eatery.

“It’s in a more open (urban) setting so I get more Jamaicans, Americans. Lots of working people. I think it going to do well ‘cause people love authentic food,” she said.

Johnson, 54, is from Lluidas Vale, a farming town in Jamaica’s St. Catherine parish. Going to the market as a child with her grandmother prepared her for a life in jerk.

Viola Smith, her grandmother, had a special seasoning that comprised scallion, pimento seeds and leaves, Scotch Bonnet and bird peppers. That concoction was a hit with customers, and was also a winning combination for Johnson when she moved to New York and eventually started her own business in Brooklyn.

Johnson is not confined to the restaurant. Bev’s Jerk Center has been at major jerk and barbecue festivals in New Orleans, Chicago, Baltimore, Florida, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Washington DC.

Being outdoors, she noted, is the perfect advertiser. “I want to show everyone that Jamaican food is clean, fun and great to eat.”

Five Facts you need to know about the Reggae Girlz

Jamaica’s senior soccer team The Reggae Girlz became the island’s (and the internet’s) darlings when they made history qualifying for FIFA Women’s World Cup 2019. In a tense battle, they finally defeated Panama 4-2 on penalties, snatching the final CONCACAF spot. Their victory felt even more sweet, as Jamaica hasn’t qualified for the World Cup since 1998, when the men’s team qualified. The team will make their first World Cup appearance next year in France next July, which gives new fans a few months to learn all about these fantastic players. So we’ve rounded up some fascinating facts you need to know about this landmark team.

They Are The First Caribbean Team To Qualify

The Jamaican women’s squad is the first Caribbean team to qualify for the senior FIFA Women’s World Cup tournament. At this year’s CONCACAF Women’s Championship, 23 Caribbean teams vied for the historic spot, with Cuba and Trinidad & Tobago offering stiff competition. In the end, Jamaica came out on top, and will head to the tournament along with Canada and the U.S.A.

The Players Honed Their Skills Against The Champions

The Reggae Girlz pulled from players across the Jamaican Diaspora for this historic squad, with several American-born players. Defenders Dominique Bond-Flasza and Toriana Patterson, and goalies Sydney Schneider and Nicole McClure all hail from America. So too do sisters Allyson and Chantelle Swaby, plus midfielders Chinyelu Asher, Marlo Sweatman and Lauren Silver. Many also play for American clubs, like Miami Surge F.C’s Christina Chang. And many native Jamaican players have cut their teeth playing college soccer in America, like captain Konya Plummer for the UCF Knights and Deneisha Blackwood for the West Florida Argonauts. This strong connection could make all the difference in the tournament, with a team full of players well acquainted with the American style. Such knowledge comes in handy if you want to defeat the reigning champions.

Striker Khadija Shaw Is A Secret Weapon

Reggae Girlz Striker Khadija Shaw was a force to be reckoned with throughout the CONCACAF qualifiers. She became the lead scorer of the tournament with 19 goals, breaking previous records. The historic win has also been a long time coming for the player, who has been representing Jamaica since she was 14 years old on the under-15, under-17 and under-20 teams. When she’s not rocking the Reggae Girlz uniform, Shaw also plays for the University of Tennessee, where she’s been named the Southeastern Conference Offensive Player of the Week twice this season.

The Marley Family Are Big Supporters

In 2010, the Jamaican Football Federation (JFF) cut funding for the women’s senior team, putting the Reggae Girlz on an indefinite hiatus. This might have still been the case if it wasn’t for the unwavering support of Cedella Marley, Bob Marley’s daughter. Sponsoring the team through the Bob Marley Foundation, she helped relaunched the team in 2014. And she has become their biggest cheerleader ever since, serving as the team’s ambassador. So you can imagine Cedella had a hard time watching the tense final. “There were a couple of moments when I had to leave the room [watching the match] because I was going light-headed,” she told BBC. “I went outside and started to meditate. By the time the last penalty went in we were all on the floor.”

They Sing The Jamaican National Anthem Like Nobody Else

The Reggae Girlz showed some serious patriotic enthusiasm after their historic win in this charming viral video. in the video, the whole team gathered in the locker rooms for an dancehall-laced round of the Jamaican National Anthem, dancing their hearts out. Here’s hoping they get a chance to sing again, this time at the Women’s World Cup Finals in France.

Calibe Thompson, publisher of Island Origins Magazine had a chance to sit and have a robust conversation with Democratic Florida gubernatorial nominee (candidate at the time), Andrew Gillum, to see what kind of message he had for the Caribbean Americans in South Florida. In their conversation, he talked about his personal relationship with the Caribbean community, his perspectives on immigration, his approach to business and wages, and his personal love of jerk chicken.

A FEW FUN FACTS FROM CALIBE’S INTERVIEW WITH MAYOR ANDREW GILLUM:

“I want to be remembered as a governor who created greater opportunity at unprecedented levels for more people in this state. I think that’s a mark that will survive for generations, because when you disrupt poverty, you change a life trajectory”

Caribbean Voter's Guide - New York, Florida, Texas, Georgia

You’d be hard pressed to find anyone to disagree with the idea that the 2016 election truly was the most consequential election in our lifetimes. All us immigrants, us stewards of the Caribbean vote, have been affected, even if just psychologically, by the current government’s skewed portrayal of us as the enemy and the outsiders. At the risk of seeming like a flaming left-wing liberal alarmist, I’d say respect for women, people of color, free speech, the media, religion, healthcare, and a clean environment are all under attack.

Believe it or not, we have a whole lot of power to make a whole lot of changes around here. One out of four legal South Florida residents was born in the Caribbean. That means the Caribbean vote has significant clout when it comes to moving elections. Whether or not we can vote ourselves, we have influence over the neighbors, family members, friends, co-workers and others in our sphere. I would challenge you to accept that we are duty bound to talk to them, and show them how this socio-political environment is affecting us in the most disturbing ways imaginable. Your voice and that conversation might make all the difference in the world.

Caribbean vote - Ways to vote in South FloridaSouth Florida is also the most populous part of the state. The fact that our votes may count less sometimes is a matter of turnout more so than actual hard numbers. I challenge you to do what you can to make sure that your family, friends and neighbors all cast their ballots, whether by absentee, early vote, or day of election voting. I’m a staunch advocate for absentee voting. I take my ballot into my living room, make me a cup of tea, ask my friend Marlon Hill for a cheat sheet, and then take my time to see what does and does not make sense to me. Return postage is free, and I live close enough to the Supervisor of Elections office that I might take a drive over there and hand deliver it so they can tell me if anything is wrong. If I didn’t do it this way, then if election day rolled around and I was too lazy to early vote, and then got the flu or something, I’d pretty much guarantee myself no voice, and we can’t have that now, can we?

We’ve seen what nonchalance and apathy can result in–an environment where we’re made to feel unwelcome by people who take power, because we’ve shown them that we don’t care who has it.

I, unfortunately, haven’t been able to engage in this election or the last one the way I did in the 2012 cycle. I still can’t. But I’ll do what I can until November 6 to encourage my friends, family, co-workers, neighbors and others in my sphere to make sure we’re all counted. Please, get your absentee ballot form. If you are able to early vote or vote on election day, great! Just bring it with you, relinquish it at the door, and you’ll be all set. If you aren’t able to early vote and know you won’t make it to the ballot box, then do us all a favor–make yourself a cup of tea, borrow the cheat sheet I got from Marlon, and start filling in bubbles!

Thanks a mill, and happy voting! 🙂 #islandorigins

Cookies for breakfast and dessert? Yep, I said it! After Thanksgiving, I had pumpkin cans bursting out of the cabinets. Not to mention, I needed a reprieve after indulging in all my vegan Thanksgiving favorites. So my recipe for healthy Vegan Pumpkin Banana Cookies comes at the perfect time!

vegan pumpkin banana cookiesWarming, incredibly moist, and slightly sweet, these cookies will have you forgetting how healthy they are. Bananas (aka brain food) are great for that morning kick-start because they are an excellent source of potassium, which helps deliver oxygen to the brain. Now you can skip coffee! While the oats, pumpkin, and walnuts, with all their fiber, keep you feeling full and digestion moving.

vegan pumpkin banana cookiesI’ve been loving the convenience of making a big batch of these on Sunday and then popping ‘em in the microwave for 30 seconds before heading out the door. You can also crumble them up on top of your morning oats or yogurt as an addition to your breakfast. Did I mention these only require one bowl and 15 minutes of your time?

Style tips from Jamaica’s modern rude boys

Slick suits, cropped pants, and killer shoes — the rude boy style lives on among the most stylish men around the world. But Jamaican sartorialists are holding the fort down for this Jamaican style, made iconic in the 1960s by the island’s ska stars. The look has somewhat shed its subculture, rebel roots, but these modern Jamaican gents have embraced the rude boy mantra of careful dressing and love of flair. Here, we break down how to master their modern rude boy look.

How To Handle The Heat: Rashade St. Patrick

True rude boys weren’t afraid to rock a full, fitted suit, even in the summer heat. And Rashade St. Patrick is keeping this spirit alive with his warm weather style. As Art Director for jewelry brand Bijoux and founder of style and culture website, Kingston Belle, he always has impeccable style. For those days when the heat is unbearable, St. Patrick keeps true to the tailored look with this subtly stripped button-down, but with a slightly looser fit for a fresh feel. Plus retro Mad Men spectacles to boot. Be sure to check out his Instagram for his stunning collection of elegant watches, a perk of the trade.

Work Out Werk: Asafa Powell

Scroll through Jamaican track legend Asafa Powell’s Instagram and you’ll see many a stunning suit. (He even modeled for menswear designer Carlton Brown). But we especially love his sleek approach to sportswear, because sweating is no excuse not to look good. There’s nothing too baggy here. Keeping true to the rude boy slim fit, Asafa offers a modern approach to sweats with his tapered Puma gym pants. Simple white kicks and a fitted tee complete the look, with subtle bling from a sleek chain and chrome shades.

Go Full Grandpa: Don Shepherd

Actor and member of roots reggae dub poetry band ban The No-Maddz, Don Shepherd is perhaps the best living embodiment of old-school rude boy style. The key to his iconic look — never be afraid of accessories. Shepherd always rocks many at once: classic fedoras, scarves, shades, and pocket squares. Paired with a sleek and cropped rude boy suit, Shepherd makes the style all his own. This look is a great lesson that sometimes, more is more. Just keep all your pieces in neutral shades, and don’t be afraid to pile it on.

Don’t Be Boring: Protoge

The secret behind the classic rude boy suit is its playful take on proportions: short pants, skinny ties, and tall pork-pie hats with the brims nearly cut off. Reggae revival star Protoge mainly lives in brightly colored baggy shirts and tams, but when he puts on a suit, it’s never basic. He too loves playing with proportions, like this slick white suit: tight jacket, slightly baggy pants, tall Rasta crown hat and a long mesh marina that nearly falls to his knees. Sticking to all-white hues helps bring this eclectic mix together – a great way to play with different fits for your own look.

How to Succeed in Business: 6 Practical Steps (Part 1)

How to Succeed in Business
How to Succeed in Business

Caribbean people are natural entrepreneurs and most have personal experience or family connections to someone doing business. Those who migrate away from the region, always wonder in the back of their minds, how to succeed in business and make it BIG! If you can’t act, like Kerry Washington (Jamaican mom), or sing, like Rihanna (Bajan born), starting your own business is a natural step. Unfortunately the business failure rate is high because most entrepreneurs lack the expertise to carve out a profitable niche for themselves. This is especially true in developed markets where the rules are complex and the competition stiff. So, to help you understand some of the issues, let’s look at what I call the “6 P’s of Business Success” (Product, Place, Plan, Processes, People and Principles).

Product

The obvious starting point is having something worthwhile to sell. What makes a “good” product and how to price it properly, would be a long discussion. Suffice it to say that consumers want quality, value for money and great service or they will shop elsewhere. If you already have a product in mind, ask yourself these questions: Exactly who wants this product? Why? How much are they prepared to pay for it?

Place

The term “place” is not just about physical location, but more importantly, your strategy for connecting with your customers. You can have a great product, but if your customers can’t find you, then you have nothing. Your ideal place may be a physical location where you do business, a virtual presence selling items online, or both. The key is to understand your customers’ needs and work out a strategy to reach them (or them reach you) in a convenient and cost effective way.

The combination of your particular product and your chosen place (distribution channel) create your niche, which is the key to the formula of how to succeed in business. In future articles I will talk more about these two and offer insights into the other 4 P’s.

BROWARD BALLOT RECOMMENDATIONS for Caribbean American Voters – 2018 Midterms

Caribbean Voter's Guide - New York, Florida, Texas, Georgia

I requested a list of Broward ballot recommendations from my friend Marlon Hill. He’s always in the thick of election activities, and spends much more time researching candidates than I do. We agreed on most, but I went a different way on a few. Please do your own research before you fill in your ballot. These are suggestions, not gospel. They do lean Democratic, and skew toward the interests of the Caribbean-American vote.

Here’s what he shared with me. (Posted here with permission)
