このコンテンツについて
Precious loves all of the joys of her life with her grandmother in Jamaica but she misses her mother who lives in the United States. When her mother finally sends for her, Precious finds herself torn between the home she has always known and her longing to be with her mother.
The term “barrel children,” coined by Dr Claudette Crawford-Brown, a senior lecturer at the University of the West Indies, refers to children whose parents leave them behind, often with grandparents, aunts, uncles, and neighbors and migrate to North America and the United Kingdom in search of opportunities for improving their economic situation. The migrating parents often send home barrels of food, clothing, and treats for the children left behind, hence the term “barrel children”.
