Just cause i'm curious..who is Caribbean/West Indian on the boards?

Doesnt matter if you werent born there..

I am west indian- american..

 

I was born in Barbados. My family moved to the States when I was five.

 

I live in the Dutch WI.

 

Well i heard frm my other african colleagues tht there is a lot of discrimination targeted towards ppl who werent born in the US

 

Yes, but that depends where you go.

 

I have a huge crush on a guy from Barbados...I could listen to him talk for hours

 

Yeah. I went with a guy from Trinidad. His was my favorite accent ever.

 

Glad to see Caribbean guys getting luv.....

 

My honey is from Guyana..... :smt054

 

Where? Curacao, Aruba?

 

I was born there. There are about 5 or 6 different races down there.

 

He's only talked about 2 specific races which obviously doesn't encompass it all lol. I want to go there next year and see as much as I can of the country.

 

Mine too....

Although he speaks "proper" American 99% of the time, I melt when he starts speaking to me in Guyanese with his deep voice.. swoon....

 

Indians and blacks make up about 70% of the population. The other races are: Chinese, Amerindians, and whites ( mainly Portuguese). BTW, the folks don`t consider the Portuguese as whites probably because the other whites (English) treated them just as badly as the other races.

Based on the news from the local newspapers-Stabroeknews.com, Kaieteurnews.com- I would suggest you be careful when go:smt018. If you do go may I suggest some place in the "interior". Beautiful scenes there like the Kaieteur Falls during the rainy season.:smt039
