The Chiney Shop
Thanks to my dad for sending me the link to this video, an interview with Jeanette Kong on her documentary "The Chiney Shop". I may not remember any specific chiney shops in Jamaica itself (too young when I left), but I still find myself gravitating to the local "Asian store" -- I'm more posh these days :) -- for anything out of the ordinary, whether in America or here in Ireland.
Great video about a key part of the Jamaican experience that very few non-Jamaicans know about. "Out Of Many, One People" indeed!
