Dive into the Sargassum seaweed crisis gripping the Caribbean, where over 38 million metric tons of seaweed are choking coastlines from Puerto Rico to Martinique. In this powerful Caribbean History documentary, we explore how this environmental emergency intersects with tourism, climate change, and Caribbean identity. Join local voices, history experts, scientists, and Indigenous leaders as they unpack the crisis’ deep roots — from colonization to modern ecological neglect.

We trace how Caribbean resilience, cultural heritage, and Afro-Caribbean traditions remain central in combating both natural and man-made disasters. This is more than an environmental disaster — it’s a continuation of the Caribbean’s survival story, echoing through its music, maroon communities, black history, and regional art. Whether you’re a travel expert, Caribbean music lover, or student of cultural history, this episode offers a moving lesson in resilience, resistance, and ecological truth.
