Why can't people realize that the Indians, Blacks, Hispanics, Chinese etc in the Caribbean each have their own separate and distinct cultural and national identities.
The only commonalities are history and geography. So it's absurd to put a catch all label on such a diverse group of people and try to fit everyone in the same box.

The West Indies cricket team is about the closest thing one can get to defining this creature known as "Caribbean Identity". Why? Because it comprises of players who share a common history and geography. Apart from that they don't have much else in common.

Guyana and Trinidad are unique in the Caribbean.
Multi ethnic and hence Multi Cultural.
We should be setting the Example for a Caribbean Community .
But you Berbicians remain firmly planted in Uttar Pradesh ...

we must have autonomy with the guyana republic.
