What Is Grenada: The Future Coming Towards Us About?
The premise of Grenada: The Future Coming Towards Us without spoilers.
The documentary explores the New Jewel Movement’s goals and achievements and explains why the United States launched its 1983 invasion. It contextualizes these events by tracing Grenada’s history—from the decimation of the indigenous Carib people by competing European colonizers, the importation of African slaves for cash‑crop agriculture, through the harsh rule of Eric Gairy (1974‑79), to the evolution of modern Grenadian society.
