We are the first stewards and ambassadors of a teen program started by the St.Croix National Park Service and Inner Changes. We all currently attending the St.Croix Educational Complex from tenth to twelfth grade. The purpose of our program is to learn the rich history of St.Croix and share it with others. Our knowledge goes back to the arrival of the enslaved people and even further back to the indians of the island. This program allowed us to experience the history of our island at first hand.
These are some sayings that the enslaved people would use in the 1700's and 1800's. Down islanders would still use these sayings as insults, jokes, and sometimes warnings. These sayings were interesting and funny!
