The Mimic Men written by Naipaul, even if his intention was of the book was different but it capture a meaning of how the Caribbean is still on the puppet string being “Mimic” by the slave master. “Men who had grown to distrust everything about themselves” (Naipaul.n.d.). We are able to do anything and achieve anything on our own but once the former colonial master - no longer in control – get involved our ‘inner slave’ starts to show itself, no longer we believe but obey and the “Colonial men mimicking the condition of manhood” (Naipaul, n.d.).

In conclusion, Naipaul was lost in a world where he was born and a world where he was from. He travelled to India to discover where he came from, “his ancestral land” (Naipaul,n.d.) and also the Caribbean. Naipaul stated “the world is always in movement” and so we as Caribbean people need to move with the world for if we remind in mental slavery will and not up elevate our self our ancestor would have fought for our freedom in vain.

Finally, Conde, highlighted “black people had no intention of solving individually the problems of their specific countries but looked towards the transnationalization of black culture as a solution” (Conde, 1998). He is mentioning that the barriers that once stood in front black people is beginning to give way and we “Negroes of all origin and nationalities with different customs and religious vaguely sense that they belong, in spite of everything, to a single and same race”(Conde, 1998).

Sitting here and thinking how it is that we Caribbean people find it difficult to come together as one and not stand as individuals. “Little Montserrat in the Caribbean, unknown to the majority of westerners, emerged from obscurity when it was threatened by the volcanic eruption of the Soufriere.” This is a perfect example of why we need to stand as one people and not wait for a disaster to bring light to the Caribbean.
