Does racism between Caribbean people disappear in the diaspora

[u/CompetitiveTart505S]

For example growing up I was never under the impression there were conflicts between Indo and Afro Caribbean people, because the Indo Caribbean people I met were all very nice and emphasized that we're all Caribbean.

I also have a Dutch friend who explained that Surinamese people seem pretty united in the Netherlands regardless of race, but this is an outsider looking in of course.

What do you guys think? Does this imply that ethnic tensions are more superficial, or is it really not that significant? Do you all have any contradictory or complementary experiences?

Im just speaking from my personal experience but I feel like theres racial tension between Indo and Black Caribbean people in Surniame, Guyana and Trinidad because of the british due to colonialism and that ignorance that was put onto them just stayed there. Whereas in Jamaica, I feel like that just doesnt happen but maybe I just havent noticed it 🤷🏽‍♀️.

If the British are involved they're will always be chaos

even before Britian. You have cultures from western asia who have been racist for centuries

India in the modern world is the case in point. Very much a product of Britain
