THE GARIFUNA are a mix of people from West Africa, Carib Islands, and Central Africa. Known by British colonial administrators in the early days as “Black Carib” and “Garifuna” so that they could be distinguished from “Red” or “Yellow” Caribs which were the original Amerindian population before intermixing with Africans.
