Work Description

Here is the LINK to the essay, "A Day in the Life of Bramley.” (Cat Island, Bahamas): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-9Rr7kLkupWj2kynz0v8JveXlZCZwihy

This essay describes Life in Bramley, on Cat Island, in the Bahamas. All names, including Bramley, are pseudonyms.
It includes several of the author's corresponding photos.
It is a composite of several weeks of
observation and condenses both time and individual activities to depict a typical day in the village (circa1977).
This particular essay is an excerpt (pp. 44-55) from the Ithaca College publication, "Strangers No More," edited by Professor Joel S. Savishinsky and comprised of a series of related essays based on fieldwork by anthropology students carried out by 12 students during an intensive 30 day period on Cat Island under the mentorship of Professor Joel S. Savishinsky.
I am very excited about breathing new life into this essay, and I plan to share it on blogs and Facebook groups that have members who might have been born or raised in the Out-Islands of the Bahamas. Please consider posting a positive comment directly on this Google Drive document for others to see. And also consider sharing it (online and off-line) with any friends, family members and associates that might genuinely appreciate reading about the day in the life of this small but significant village located on Cat Island in the Bahamas!
With good thoughts,

Excerpts

"I have decided to begin my field day early. By my watch it is five a.m., but the darkness is deceptive and my eyes say midnight. All but the moon and the stars are asleep. I walk along the loosely-paved road into Bramley. The breeze is warm and blanketing..."
added by Jonathanl1221.

This excerpt was chosen to convey a sense of appreciation of what daily life in a small village, located on Cat Island in the Bahamas, was like (circa 1977)."
