KCCU Public Radio is located at Cameron University in Lawton, Oklahoma. We have many students majoring in communications who come from the Caribbean islands of the Bahamas, St. Kitts, St. Lucia and other islands. Roberto's comment that Americans thought he had lived in a hut when he was in the Bahamas rings true with comments I've heard from the Caribbean students here at Cameron. They received similar comments upon their arrival in Oklahoma. I must point out, though, that Roberto did learn that our streets are not paved with gold. The beauty of pieces like this is that it shows how important it is to hear stories from everyone and everywhere. Roberto provides a unique perspective and deserves to be shared.
