In this stirring talk, Attillah takes us through the various definitions and origins of Jouvay, by re-examining some of the Caribbean's revolutionaries. She explores and shares the experiences of transformation, beauty, and celebration, linking these formative experiences to battles of freedom that have taken place on our very own soil. This story about "love, hope, death and ideology" highlights the importance of the freedom we have fought for, both physical and artistic, and invites the listener to remember the importance of Trinidad Carnival's "living canvas" known as Jouvay.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
