Benefit is being around more black people. Disadvantage is that you are more vulnerable to racist white people.

Disadvantage is that your on an island so many conveniences that you will have on the mainland doesnt exist there or if it does its very limited.

Jobs for one where I used to be is a pain in the ass to get. You got an island full of people with only a few jobs to go around.
There should be software training centers in mass... to over take the Indian hold on consultants. Cacs hate Indians, they'll accept anything and everything before Indians

Live your own life
Jamaicans, and other groups are so busy trying to get here to get a piece of what we made, and you got white folks owning the resorts and everything of value in your native country and with all your pride and accomplishments y'all don't go back and build any real infrastructure in your alleged native homeland. And just like every other group of foreign black people, I ask how many of y'all were clamoring to run here when we were getting our ass beat in the streets and lynched for looking at white women, or just for being black. So miss me with that.
:dwillhuh:
You are an idiot.:pacspit: You are also naive like Poiter. Black immigrants were also victims of white supremacy. Stop acting like blacks from overseas didn't get hanged and penned down with harsh prison sentences.

I'm trying to write a 5 page paper on struggles black immigrants specifically from the Carribeans face in the United States and the struggles they face that black americans don't. Interested to hear different perspectives other than my own. Will make my paper more interesting and easier to write. Thanks in advance.

I've lived in the Caribbean for most of my life and went to University in the US for 4 years. I wasn't an 'immigrant' per say but on a student visa. There I made many friends that were also from down here that were immigrants or that parents were immigrants. They all complained that in their respective countries there wasn't such blatant and rampant racism. Something I also witnessed for myself. Cultural differences were another huge discrepancy. Otherwise with regards to the law, or society, they didn't seem to feel much different from the AA's, just the Caucasians.

@88m3 Showing his clowness again!

You talk that inferiority complex bullshyt, but ignore why some of those post were written. I agree some of them were stupid but, you are the one acting like you are high & mighty, and like to use ethnicity as a way to separate yourself from AA. Its a little head game people like you play. You talk crazy, like you're special. Notice @Jisselle actually was from the islands, and didn't try to separate herself, and saw there wasn't really a difference, while your ass has been here most of your life, and try to separate yourself in a way to act like your better then us. It ain't no inferiority complex, its how you act. Not all but those just like you. Stop bullshytting people. Don't come talking you celebrate your Jamaican culture nonsense, we went through that already. You showed your true colors in that thread. It took a while to come out but, it did.

The majority of posts in that thread were from angry, barely literate, scared posters who want to ignore that other people in this case Caribbean people and later Africans can have different cultures and don't understand there is nothing wrong with that. Where did I say I'm special? Just accept the fact I have a different background than AA's and again there is nothing wrong with that. You're just writing crap just to type it at this point you're really insecure dude."It took awhile to come out but it did"? What did? You sounds like a slave master and you don't even realize it. Poitier and you are ignorant clowns who want to forcefully assimilate all blacks into Americans.

Why don't you figure out your background so you don't have to behave like a confused child the rest of your life.

All else fails you can become a Hebrew Israelite.
