Thanks to those who attended the first screening of a short film dedicated to the life and work of the late Professor Sr. Noel Menezes. The film, From Canefield to Commerce: a brief history of the Portuguese in Guyana, takes the form of readings accompanied by images (photographs and illustrations). It draws on Sr. Menezes’ historical research. The readings also include research by Dr Jo-Anne Ferreira, who has studied the Portuguese migration to the Caribbean, with a particular focus on Trinidad. The film lasts 45 minutes.
Another screening via Zoom will be scheduled shortly.
