There is an undoubted Barbadian sensibility that informs or shapes the individual and collective responses of the Barbadian people.

That is the wellspring of a civil, and civilized, people steeped in progressive values, but on the bedrock of core values lodged in the social consciousness. Ralph E. Gonsalves, Prime Minister of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
