Obeah - Obeah is a term used in the West Indies to refer to folk magic or sorcery. While the term may be used in a general sense, it is mainly used in reference to negative or black magic, and to religious practices derived from various West and Central African origins, such as Voodoo, Santeria and the Orisha faith.
Santeria (song) - Santeria is a song on Sublime's eponymous third album. Other than the opening line, "I don't practice Santeria," the song actually has little to do with the Caribbean religion.
Loa - A loa (or lwa) is a powerful spirit or deity in the voodoo religion. Voodoo believers assign them quite active roles in everyday life, and ascribe them great powers of possession.
Caribbean Law Institute / Caribbean Law Institute Centre - The Caribbean Law Institute (CLI) was established in 1988 under a grant from the United States Agency for International Development to promote such activities that would further clarify the laws affecting trade, commerce and investment in the Region, while at the same time respecting the unique needs of local jurisdictions.
