Audrey West: Jamaican in Wales

Island Voices filmed Audrey West at her home in Wales. The videos show briefly Audrey’s journey with language and culture including Jamaican.

A documentary slice of Jamaican life in Wales, narrated in Jamaican by Audrey West - poet, artist, and community worker. Alongside samples of Audrey's poetry and conversation, this film contributes to a small Jamaican collection which forms part of an extension series of the Island Voices project, in which its "capture and curation" model is used for more languages in addition to English and Gaelic.
