Scope and Contents:
Carrington Lloyd Buddoo, known as Lloyd Buddoo, explained the public school system in Jamaica, including the requirement of purchasing own books, free education from age 7 to 15, and local examinations, as well as details about his personal experience attending school in Jamaica. He discussed saving money and his experience attending high school at the age of 19 and being head boy of the school, and then teaching elementary school, visiting Chicago in the United States, and working at the Department of Statistics before attending Mico College.

Buddoo detailed some of the history of Mico College. After attending Mico College, Buddoo explained he taught high school in Jamaica for one year before returning to the United States to complete a bachelor's degree at Howard University, where he fought to obtain credit for courses he took at Mico College and graduated with honors. He also explained that the courses in Jamaica where more intense than the courses he took at Howard and he completed his courses in a year and half while working full time. After graduation from Howard, Buddoo explained he could not get a job so he decided to be a cab driver, and that he decided to go to law school at Howard University after getting a traffic ticket and being treated unfairly in court.

Buddoo also talked about his family, his children, picking oranges and grapefruits, and growing vegetables in his garden. He explained why he would not return to Jamaica, discrimination in Jamaica, specifically where he lived in Jamaica, living and work conditions in Jamaica, how Jamaicans saved money to immigrate to the United States or England, and that public health and cleanliness are better in Jamaica than in the United States.

Carrington Lloyd Buddoo was interviewed in June 1994. Interview is in English. Buddoo's interview follows the conclusion of Dorothy Baker's interview on ACMA_AV002379_B. Digital audio files include white noise and static; interviewee can be heard clearly for the most part.
