For decades, Flatbush in Brooklyn, Lenapehoking (New York City) has been the heart of the Caribbean Diaspora in NYC.

The “Little Caribbean” and the "Little Haiti" neighborhoods in Brooklyn contain the largest concentration of Caribbean-American immigrants in New York, and one of the largest in the United States of America.

Independent countries and non-independent islands of the Caribbean: Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Aruba, the Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Bermuda, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Cuba, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, Haiti, Montserrat, Netherlands Antilles, Puerto Rico, St. Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, Turks and Caicos and the United States Virgin Islands. While Mexico borders the Caribbean Sea and includes the "Mexican Caribbean" region, it is not considered a Caribbean country. Mexico is geographically part of North America. The "Yucatan Peninsula" and specific coastal areas in the state of Quintana Roo are considered geologically Caribbean. Cancun is Caribbean and it's amazing!

Yankee imperialism in Cuba, Haiti, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Venezuela, Guyana, Bolivia, and Paraguay.

"It is necessary for us to compile this information so that persons can see the patterns of deliberate actions taken by the US to destabilise countries in the region. It is important to remember that lives are lost, and more are at risk, due to this dangerous game that the empire is playing against our peoples."_Jamaica LANDS Info: www.jalands.org/intel/compilations/us-intervention-latam-caribbean-21c
