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?

LOL, there's plenty of racism in the Caribbean.

My question pertains to outside the Caribbean.

As in do these racist and hostile relationships persist once people leave

[u/SAMURAI36 → u/CompetitiveTart505S]

Not sure I understand the question? 🤔

For example would indo and Afro Guyanese beef in America the same way they would beef in Guyana

NYC is little Guyana. Guyanese people tend to get along but Indo-Guyanese have a weird self loathe within the community. My mom hated Indo-Guyanese despite being one herself
