[quote="DONKEYMAN"]Are you familiar with the West Indian ? Clarify to me

Usher is also of Jamaican descent. I heard those West Indian blacks benefitted from the British rule in Jamaica. They happened to be the most educated blacks in America. Marcus Garvey was from them too.[/quote]


Marcus Garvey is a Jamaican civil rights leader. I'm not sure where you heard about Usher but I doubt he's jamaican. I'm very familiar with that side of my culture as I am with the hispanic side.

what do you wanna know?

Nope.Coolie is a term used to refer to Guyanese.

Been there 4 times, have an ex who is Jamaican, grew up with Jamaicans, and still associate with them. In effect, forgot more than you'll ever know about them.


Super Cat. Seen him several times here in concert. DEF mixed, but an exception, rather than the rule. Looks more Guyanese or Trini than Jamaican.

Never said they were ALL Blacks. Large population of Chinee Jamaican, as well as others. i.e German Town.

But you ARE one emotional wreck, aren't ya? Break into hysterics when schooled about yourself.

Either way, later loser. Got a Caribana Partay to rock.

D man

Don't ask this Porto Rican shit, he don't know nothin.

Found this interesting clarification.

"The total population of the West Indies Federation was between 3 and 4 million people, with the majority being of African descent. Minorities included Indians (called “East Indians”) Europeans, Chinese, and Caribs. There was also a large population of mixed descent (mainly mulattos, but also Afro-Indian, Euro-Indian and mixed-Chinese). In terms of religion, most of the population was Protestant, with significant numbers of Catholics and some Hindus and Muslims (both almost exclusively from the East Indian population).

don't backtrack you moron. You said unequivocally that there are "NO JAMAICANS OF EAST INDIAN DESCENT."

I called you out on that and provided proof. You got nailed. You didn't school me son. I know my cultural heritage which is why I could tell you 'coolies" exist.

Ask any Jamaican in Toronto, and I'm sure they'll tell you. You're OWNED!!!!

That is very broad. I can't speak unequivocally for other islands but in the case of Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago there's a diffrence. Jamaica's population is largely protestant due to English colonisation. In Trinidad & Tobago's case they're more Roman Catholic being under Spanish rule for a long time although England later colonised it. There's a huge percentage of Hindus and to a smaller extent Muslims since they have people of middle eastern descent.

Jamaica also have people of middle eastern descent as well.
