The Caribbean Diaspora

The Caribbean Diaspora refers to the communities of people from the Caribbean region—such as countries like Jamaica, Trinidad, and Barbados—who live outside their homeland, notably in the United States, Canada, the UK, and other parts of the world. This movement has been driven by economic opportunities, education, and escape from political issues. The diaspora plays a significant role in preserving Caribbean culture, traditions, and languages while also contributing to their new communities through economic activity and cultural exchange. Their experiences shape both their identities and the perceptions of Caribbean heritage globally.
