Before the feathers, there is Jab

Grenada's Carnival does not start with gems. It starts at four in the morning on the Carenage, in the dark, when a conch shell goes and the street fills with people covered head to toe in black oil.

The word comes from patois. Diable. Devil. Enslaved Africans took the imagery the church used to frighten them and threw it back as satire, blackening themselves on purpose, turning chains of captivity into a symbol of freedom.

It is not a costume. It is a two-hundred-year-old protest that people still walk every August.

Dania, Emma and Jamie Lee had played a lot of mas before Grenada. They had not played this.
