Quinton Griffith (born 27 February 1992) is an Antiguan professional footballer who plays for Five Islands and captains the Antigua and Barbuda national team.
Anthony Meredith Quinton, Baron Quinton (25 March 1925 – 19 June 2010) was an English political and moral philosopher, metaphysician, and materialist philosopher of mind.

The Antigua and Barbuda national football team represents Antigua and Barbuda in men's international football, and is governed by the Antigua and Barbuda Football Association founded in 1928. It has been a full member of FIFA and CONCACAF since 1972. Regionally, it is a member of CFU in the Caribbean Zone. Antigua and Barbuda has never qualified for the FIFA World Cup and the CONCACAF Gold Cup, but has participated four times in the League B and once in League C of the CONCACAF Nations League. Regionally, the team finished as runners-up in the 1988 CFU Championship. Antigua and Barbuda's debut in international competitions was in the 1973 CONCACAF Championship, which also served as the CONCACAF qualifiers for the 1974 FIFA World Cup. The first victory in the team's history was in 1950 by defeating Montserrat 2–0 in the Leeward Islands Tournament, which was also the first match in the team's history.

The district included stores, professional offices, entertainment venues and homes owned by Black citizens. Understanding Greenwood means learning what was built—not only what was burned.
