What countries would you say are culturally similar to your own, and what countries would you say your country is most historically linked too.

For Belize, I would say Honduras and Jamaica.

We are US Citizens. My sister turns 40 April 2026. I have six siblings. 11 nieces/nephews. My sister said she wants to go somewhere beautiful with clear water. It would prob be third week of April.

I am looking for recommendations or places to look into for where to go - to make it easier just thinking all inclusive resort somewhere. The plan is for me to look into it - run by her a few recommendations and see which she prefers. Then plan from there.

So here I am asking strangers what they recommend. I know I can google it. But I like hearing what people suggest.

Do you use it? What's your relationship to it. Does it bother you? How do you feel when it's directed at you?

Caveats: it's one thing if it's in a Rap song, or maybe used jokingly that I don't count.

But is it a part of your everyday lexicon? For me, it's a word that makes me cringe Everytime. And it's worse because anytime I'm with my black friends and I hear this term used like it's nothing, it makes me visibly uncomfortable. Especially when directed at me lol. I even here the girls using it and it's a ln instant turn off. I know that New York Caribbeans say it a lot, even the Dominicans, PR, indo Guyanese or Indo Trinidadians. And of course that opens the door for the Mexicans and even the low social class whites haha. Florida Caribbeans don't use it much. I find Texas Caribbeans may use it depending on their proximity to the Caribbean side or embracing full "Americaness"

But yeah just curious.

In my Caribbean experience, I usually found that although we have it, it's seldom used unless you're really disgusted or angry with someone. But not used on a casual basis like it's Skittles or something lol

I was watching a video on the relationship to Sicilian to Italian and they went on to discuss an interesting, yet relatable situation where the children would speak Sicilian to each other, but if a parent or adult were to speak to them l, even if the adult addressed them in Sicilian, they were expected to respond in Italian. It's not to uncommon to hear similar stories amongst my friends where if your parents spoke to you in the local dialect, you were expected to respond in proper French/English/Spanish etc

I recently made a friend from Martinique and she told me how she was so confused as to why her fiance from St. Lucia would always respond to his mother in Proper English, even though his mother would address him in French Creole.

Even in Grenada I always remembered how my aunt would greet her friend with comawuyay! and one day I tried the same thing upon seeing the same lady and I got reprimanded for "speaking to my elders in Patois". At the time I had no idea what Patois(French Creole) was 🤣. It was just the things people say.

But now that Im older and get a chance to culture myself, I see that there used to be a highly valued understanding of respect and order. Some may say we need to go back to those days... Hahaha

I put them in a bag with a few apples to ripen quickly. Forgot about them and now they look like this. What do you guys think? Thank you.

Hi! 🏝️ what are the best vegetarian dishes or sides in your country? Or something that can easily be made vegetarian by asking at a restaurant? Bonus points if it’s not fried.

How keen are restaurants on your island on making dishes with out meat?

In Puerto Rico it’s pretty meat centric and lots of things have a meat base even if it appears vegetarian. Lots of places think you’re crazy for wanting a meal with out meat but will help out. Especially in the mountains. Ensalada granos is a go to for me. I am able to get vegetarian mofongo sometimes. Queso frito.

Looking forward to trying new things!!

Hey guys, I've just booked a flight from France to Martinique for 10 days vacations (8-19 of may).
I do not have any type of attache to Martinique, but just wanted to visit the Island !
Aside from the classic stuffs, is there anything ongoing there that I should look at ?
And also would like to experience the night life (nothing crazy) is that feasible whiteout finding my self only with tourists ?

Really any tip is welcome !

Meatballs in tomato sauce with green beans is a Surinamese dish regarded as dish of "creole" origin, but that has its roots in Dutch cuisine and found its way into creole cuisine. From there on it spread to the rest of Suriname and it is not exactly limited to creole food now.

The meat balls are made by marinating the minced meat according to your flavor, but the most important flavors are: onion, tomatoes (or tomato puree), soy sauce and or ketjap (Javanese sweetened and spiced up soy sauce), black pepper, celery, salt/stock cubes. Paprika powder, sweet peppers, a madame jeanette pepper and cooking wine are also added. Some people add bread to fill it up and an egg for stability. It's then fried in oil. Part of the oil is then used to make the sauce.

The sauce is made with tomatoes and/or tomato puree, quite a bit of onions, garlic (not too much), black pepper, maggi, salt, sugar. Some people add sweet peppers in there too, others add extra cooking wine, and many also add ketjap for a rich flavor; but those are optional. The balls are added to the sauce and are cooked for about 15 minutes. Important is to add another whole madame jeanette (or habanero) for the aroma and a celery stalk too.

The beans are made very simple. The flavors that are a must are onions, black pepper and nutmeg. Nutmeg is the most important one. You then serve it with rice, pickles and a plantain if that's your thing. less

And why did he have such a cool accent that I’ve never heard anywhere else?

This video is a tribute to Paulo Albin from the band La Perfecta. (It's in French, so ignore the texte). This is Martinican music, I'm curious to know what it means to all of you as Caribbean people

So i saw another post made earlier comparing Haitian gangs to gangs elsewhere in the caribbean and there seemed to be a lot of confusion/misinformation on it but they closed that mf so just wanted to drop some facts for anyone wondering.

1. Do Haitians "bring" gangs to other countries?

The short and long answer is no. Haitian gangs are a relatively new phenomenon that started in the late 90s sometimes after the military junta which diposed Aristide. While most other caribbean countries have a much longer history of gangs. It was politicians who created and armed them, there's even a whole documentary about it called "Ghost of cité Soleil". Now they have just gotten too powerful to be controlled by their former masters and are going crazy.But they have largely not spread to other countries since their rise to power is very recent and they are intensely fighting the Haitian police.

1. Are Haitian gangs worse than other gangs in the region?

Well, the caribbean in general is pretty dangerous as far as gang violence goes. A few caribbean countries are on the list of highest murder rates in the world and Haiti is now among them. But i would have to say yes, they definitely are. For the simple reason they kill civilians without hesitation and burn down whole neighborhoods. They don't try to stay low-key or only kill gang members like gangs in other countries do. Most of the murders in Jamaica or PR for example are probably gangsters killing each other. Still brutally, but at least civilians arent involved most of the time. This is why Haitians want the gangs members dead and why civilians deal with them so brutally when they catch them down bad. They are fed up of the gov not doing shit to protect them

I have noticed on social media that many people are offended that some Black Americans Don't Identify as being African, I see these discussions on multiple social media platforms. I often ignore those postings. Why force an Identity on them that they aren't willing to accept?.

It just makes Immigrants look insecure. Why do you care so much?. Iv'e noticed every time some one confronts them about their African Identity they become More Xenophobic. These confrontations only lead to major disrespect and I don't want to diss anyone back for speak ill about my country.

So don't enter their spaces and just leave them alone so we all can have peace. Don't tweet or mention them.

Comme je vois qu'il n'y a pas beaucoup de médias posté par rapport à la Martinique (et la Guadeloupe) ici, je prend l'initiative de vous partager une vidéo de martniquais en tenu traditionnelle 😊 Malgré le fait que ce ne soit pas une question, qu'en pensez vous?

So I was watching an episode of "Dutch Caribbean Coastguard" and in that episode the Dutch military intercepted a drug shipment. The military ship is from the Dutch navy, but there were some members of the American coast guard on board that help with operations. They said that the men trafficking the drugs were from the Dominican Republic and Colombia, and that the boat sailed from Venezuela towards the Dutch Antilles.

My question is then, why were these men sent to the USA to be tried under their law system?? If the boat came from Venezuela, and the men were from the Dominican Republic and Colombia, and the Dutch navy led this operation, why does the USA suddenly step in and handle the legal stuff? Every country has different laws for these things, so why the USA? Is there some sort of agreement that the USA controls the entire Caribbean or something? I know they have a couple of territories in the Caribbean, but as far as I know they are nowhere near the Dutch Antilles. I tried googling about this American extradition system, but nothing came up, and I just really don't understand what the role of the USA is in all this, so if anyone can help me out, thanks!
