Island Revolts - Invidious

Island Revolts

These animated videos take viewers on a fast-paced, witty ride through the history of revolts across all the Caribbean islands, from the pre-Columbian era to independence or regime change.

I’m from St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands raised in the U.S., and my parents and grandparents are from St. Kitts and Nevis. I started Island Revolts to research and share island history with my kids and family, and it’s amazing to see it connect with so many like-minded people. My family is spread across the Caribbean, speaking different languages just like many of you, and my goal is to continue bringing accurate history to you in a fun and engaging way.
