In 2017 Hurricane Maria ravaged the Caribbean and hit Dominica like nature’s bulldozer. It tore through its once picturesque streets leaving in its wake deep questions for the region and like the proverbial phoenix, a new country to emerge from the ruins.
Now a new storm is brewing on its horizon and threatens to take the livelihood of generations yet to be born. Welcome to Dominica and the inside story that will challenge the way you look at your passport.
As I continue my journey across the region, I am joined by Vanessa Winston St Agathe who takes me on a tour of the deep issues at play in this small nation.
