I met few Indian from Carribean and they are all rude and paronoid
....
We're the usually forgotten about indians and hindus whose ancestors went through a lot for us to still be here. 🇹🇹
Yes. We hope the gap between we West Indians and East Indians will be bridged soon enough.
Muslims as well Arabs
Proud of my Great Grandparents for coming here to make a better life and so proud till now we Indians here in T&T still carries on our ancestors culture and traditions...

My Indian heritage stale in Saint Lucia 🇱🇨 I was born in Barbados 🇧🇧
Thank you for sharing! Great to have you here
Can you add some details, how large was the community, and when did they arrive?
It is same for the indian diaspora in South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda.
Same for Mauritian, Fiji zIdlabds, Myanmar, Malaysia and Singapore, Reunion island and Seychelles. All Indians brought by the British or French!
Mauritius the only African country with a hindu (indo mauritian) majority population!❤
Wherever Hindus go they prosper and contribute peacefully.
Love ❤️ to this! Well done 💯I’m from Trinidad 🇹🇹 and Tobago 🇹🇹 with Indian decent 🇮🇳💯
So wonderful to have you here Delon. Thank you for watching 🇮🇳🇹🇹💜
A lot of Indians were tricked into going to the Carribean and not paid the wages they were promised or doing the job they were promised. Some were told that they were just going to a different part of India and were shipped across the Atlantic.
The arcati were the people who tricked our ancestors. In Guyana we say “Harcati” to refer to someone who is a scamp. It’s a direct reflection of this word from India
Just add to those taken to South Africa in the mid of 19th Century.. my grandparents were victims and they left to India sometime in 1910 only to emigrate to British Malaya in 1912.. I for one the third generation living in Malaysia for 68 years now...
what is the source of your information ?
@@satyadeotiwari4914 My bloodline. If you Google it, you will find many resources.
As are the Fiji Indians….indentured indeed but in reality were slaves….having said that we are where we are because that was our lot and we thrived in adversity
Pakistan became a country in 1947, therefore in 1919 there were no Pakistanis who moved to the Caribbean
They were all Indians at that time.
The Indians started coming to Suriname in 1870 some came from Pakistan.
@@samiazaffar7096 They were called "Brits Indiers".
They came from all over poverty british poverty india
Pakistan just used as a reference point to say where they came from
Love u guys from indian origin living in t&t , guyana, suriname form an indian 💝
Right back at you 💜🇮🇳 🇹🇹🇬🇾🇸🇷so pleased to have you here!
I was born, brought up and lived in Kerala, India,lived and worked in Calcutta for 4 years and theb moved to USA 50 years ago (in 1973) Today I have learned quite a lot about Indians in the Caribbean Island nations. I have been a "knowledge Hunter" and love to learn about people an d cultures around the world, I will be back - Andrew J. Mathews, Latham,NY (USA)
Thanks for sharing Andrew, love the knowledge hunter reference. Perhaps the topic of Indians in North America will be of interest to you. Lots more to come, hope to have you back. Bridging Cultures: The Rise of Indians in North America

Amazing video - thank you for making this topic.
Our school system failed to teach us properly that the Indian diaspora was the largest mass movement of people in the 19th century.

I like this presentation
@@rameshramkelwan4342 Thank you Ramesh
Thank you for this video.
I am 68 and never learnt Hindi, as our parents never taught us, using it as their secret language.Of course I know some words and phrases.
Indian Indentureship was another form of slavery by trickery. And, as mentioned in the video it was harsher than some aspects of African slavery.
Trinidad & Tobago.
West Indies.
Thanks for your input Ramish, so glad you enjoyed the video.
If india was so beautiful why did they came to the west indie?slavery was in india not the west indies they were paid by the british for their services.why Pakistan formed their own country in 1947 cuz indian moslim and Hindus were killing each other and they blamed the british.i am so proud to be a guyanese not an india indian.
similar situation in Mauritius and Fiji
In Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago, Indians didn't speaking HINDI, BUT IN SURINAME WE DO,THE MOST DIVERSIFIED COUNTRY OF SOUTH AMERICA
Spoken like a true uneducated Surinamese. Im trini we speak Hindi and Punjabi
This is manifestly untrue......Desist from making proclamations about social realities that you know absolutely nothing about.
You sir with your statement here just proved that you are an idiot
Nonsense! The Indians in Trinidad & Tobago and Guyana did speak Hindu. And some do even today. It would prudent next time to google the information before running your mouth.
@@andrehenry3842 Exactly!
Public comment. Thank you so much for sharing your video. ❤ never forget Indians is educated and hard work and dedication to strive for success. Also fallow their roots and tradition alive ❤.
Thanks so much for watching Danny, we are so glad this video was valuable to you!
Awesome. I have never come across such a SUPERB video about Indians in the Caribbean! Much appreciated!
Thank you so much for the superb feedback! So honoured to have you as part of our audience.
Trinidad is the only Caribbean island that is 40% of each Indians and Africans. The rest of the people are a mixture if all other cultures including a good amount of Chinese. I am 50% Indian, 25% Chinese, 17% African and 8% European/British. Guyana's largest population is Indian.
Thanks for watching Elizabeth! Your comment is appreciated.
AUTHENTIC CALLALLO😂
thoes stats are dubious at best
All dem coolie people say they are mix of this and that meanwhile they all look 100% Indian ethnicity. Coolie proud of the mix race identity. But you got to understand one fact that Indians are very conservative and strict that they don't get interracial marriages. Hence, they are able to hold their heritage believes and values to date, unlike Africans.
3236 hay dumhead is Guyana more than 50 years its not british no more so go back to school and dont be a dunce.
Much luv to the Indo-Caribbean community 🇭🇹didn’t know about this history!
I think you've made a wonderful effort to at least showcase the Indian diaspora. It does provide an overview of our history. So thank you for that.🙏
Thank you so much Rohan, glad to have your input
Love this interesting information I am from Trinidad & Tobago and is happy that this message can be passed on.
So glad to have you here Angela! 🇹🇹💜
India is the most diverse place on planet earth and its people are very resilient.
Thanks for watching Sunny so glad to have you here
Incredible India!
@@HenryManglie🇮🇳💜
Should say the most racist country on the planet , hiding the siddi (indo african ) treating them like dirt
Good video. I didn't know they make such large % there until now. Because of social media now many Indians from Homeland are learning this. Indians also make majority in Fiji and many other Islands. Glad to see they are still maintaining the traditions and remembering the roots. I'm living in USA for last 15 yrs and here also Indians make 4.5 mil plus so far and fastest growing population in USA. Wherever we are we always LOVE India.
Thank you so much for your feedback and for watching!

Um George Maxwell Richards was not East Indian. Also, Noor Hassanali was a much loved President of East Indian descent of Trinidad and Tobago.
He was chinese
Belizean Chutney🇧🇿🇮🇳
Never heard that when I was in San Pedro and Caye Caulker 🇧🇿
Oooft I hope that Chutney tastes good
Belize is a slightly different case because the Indians who went there under the British were mostly men. They married local women so the Indian culture wasn't preserved. The new wave of Indians are mostly Sindhi Hindus whose family were displaced during the partition that created Pakistan. Sad stories from whatever angle you look at it.
Panama also has a mid sized Indian community.
It’s amazing how they have preserved their culture, language and food habits through 100’s of years. It impresses me how people brought in as slaves have evolved through generations and still stay connected to their roots.
Thank you so much for watching and your input
They were not slaves. Africans were brought as slaves which is why their culture disappeared. Indians migrated as.a family unit to a large extent which kept their culture intact to a point. But as in every case, not valuing what is precious will cause it to be lost.
@@booksusa5995 oh good to know ! Thank you for educating us 🙏

Good thing with them Indians,they keep moving forward,work hard ,cause no trouble and contribute enormously to the economy of their respective countries they moved to !!They never used the “indentured or servants “card ,to look for excuses!!
Thanks so much for your feedback Danny!
Indo Caribbean’s have been through absolute hell. Probably some of the worst things have happened to indo Caribbean’s. To think indentured slavery ended only a century ago (1917) is insane.
My grand parents were indentured slaves and my parents grew up pre independence. My mom and dad told me horrible stories about them having to hide from the British army and how the British sparked the divide between Afros and Indos.
Some say once in Guyana everyone was considered equals. After all we all had to come together and fight for freedom. I hear so many old heads say long ago there was no indo and Afro there was Guyanese and that’s it. This is where “One people, One Nation, One Destiny” comes from.
We need to come together like we once were.
Thank you for sharing!
The Rastafarian community is largely influenced by the spiritual yogis of India, from ganja, dreads, vegan…etc.
There was no Bangladesh or Pakistan at that time 😊
yall are the same 🤣
And what is that supposed to mean?
True!
We are one people but we choose to be different and therefore difficult
He was REFRENCEING GEOGRAPHIC LOCATIONS......THATS NOW OAKISTAN AND BANGLEDESH NEPAL SRI LANKA TEBET.WHEN THE BRITISH COLONIZERS CAME IT WAS ALL ONE COUNTRY. SAME LIKE AFRICA MIDDLE EAST AND OTHERS.THOSR NO GOOD BRITISH.
Leftout Puerto Rico, please update.
Thanks Marielisa for watching and for the input!
India is not the second largest country in the world. There's a difference between population and size of a country.
😂😂 it’s true I was a bit confused by that
Growing up in SE Asia, my only image of the Caribbean is Black people with dreadlocks, raggae music and beaches. Didn't know there are many Indians. Certainly under represented on an international scale. Would love to visit there someday.
Thanks for watching! So grateful for your interaction
Wait till you hear about the Chinese, Arabs, Europeans, Amerindians, Jews etc 😅
No. Actually life is very hard for people of South East Asian origin in the Caribbean. There are several documents that discuss this.
Not to forget, places like St.Thomas in the USVI
Can you add a few lines about the virgin islands? How/when Indians got there and how are they doing now?
A copper atom, a silver atom, and a gold atom walk into a night-club. The club
owner says, “Eh you, get out of here.” Question #1: Who had to leave the club?
After the first atom left, a second one followed it. Question #2:
Who was the second atom - and what did it say when it was leaving?
The club owner says, “Eh Ji, you can stay.” Question #3: Who was the third atom?
----------------------
Answer #1: The Gold Atom - because the owner said,
Eh you = Au (Au = Aurum is the chemical name for Gold.)
Answer #2: The Copper Atom - and when it left, it said:
See you = Cu (Cu = Cuprum is chemical name for Copper.)
Answer #3: The Silver Atom - because, the owner said:
Eh Ji = Ag (Ag = Argentum is the chemical name for Silver.)

Why was president NOOR HASANALI , And KAMAL. MOHAMMED left out
there are many discrepancies in this video
Thank you for posting this. However Trinidad and Tobago's first indian President was the late Mr Noor Hassanali.
Thank you for the input Navisha
You're welcome ❤
Good video, I didn't know carribean had/has so many Indians..
Great Info..
Indians are simple, nice and more importantly humble.... I just feel sad that they went as slaves....I don't know how to put it...but Indians by large Tolerated BAD Persian,muslim,British rulers...
and we didn't become that bitter, still tolerant..
I guess it's the Hindu Culture that played BIG PART ie accepting and believing in KARMA
Thank you for sharing this video🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for your kind words Nagini! Appreciate the support and so glad you found value.🇮🇳
Maybe you need to actually visit these places instead of googling and using google photos. The pic of the Indo Trinidadian isnt even Indo Trinidadian.
Will you give him money for travel? How do you know the Pic is not Trinidadian anyway? 🤔
We need more Indians in grenada
Naa
@@virgoboy6415 yes we do. Indians did sacrifice a lot for GREENZ too.
Than country wud full of racism u better thing before talk.check guyana and trini racism
Seventh largest country in the world
The Hindus got paid but the slaves did not! I'm glad they're realizing that Africans did work hard labor without pay and they are making lives better for Africans all over the world.
Because we are skill worker . Today world also high skill worker get paid more then just labour. Today in America also if they remove affirmative action , DEI, esg . Then Asian and Indian subcontinent people will take over all things
Jamaica what ufr
Yes
respect to the indians though
CAR- ROW -KNEEE ... lol
So the first Indians who were brought in as slaves were allowed to carry their food? How did they get access to Indian spices and dals? In which years did they reconnect with India?
1838-1898 were the start and end of indentured labor to the Caribbean. However the islands were still colonies so ships and movement of people continued until 1919 (or 1925 in two cases we know about where people went back to India).
As for food, everything was grown locally (no dirt poor Laborers were importing saffron at that time).
We will not go to sleep with waters, Indian laborers. We were paid, so stop trying to put us down please or put in your self down.

Where is Guadeloupe and Martinique
can you please get your information right! there was no Pakistan or Bangladesh. pak in 1947 and Bangladesh in 1971 so all these people came from India thank you. jai hind
In Suriname the hindus still speaks hindi and bhojpuri both are indian language's . Trinidad and Guyana doesn't speaks in hindi or bhojpuri. I forgot to say Suriname also known as mini india because of the language's
You never reach an india indian they think think they are better than you but they are garage. I see them every day in Brampton canada
Still spoken. And still used in songs, prayers and religious practice
You are mistaken we are 500.000 and Netherlands also 380.000
The first Muslim head of state in the western hemisphere was Hon. Noor Hassanali president of Trinidad and Tobago
Thanks Curtis
hold up where are the christian schools in Trinidad
It appears as if most of the festivals, foods, religious relics and people shown in this video are NOT from the Caribbean. The producer has most of the facts right but what is shown is not authentically Indo-Caribbean.
Thank you for watching and for the input, much appreciated!
Alot of the pictures are from the islands . I recognized some from Trinidad and Tobago like the Hanuman statue , pigion point beach in Tobago , and shots of Port Of Spain ,the capital of T&T .
Not that many in St Lucia 😂😊
They will be there soon 😂
@@amardaman3371 😱
My Dad was from St.Lucia
YOU LEFT OUT AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT. Most of the people of Indian ethnicity in Trinidad & Tobago have been blended with other ethnicities, contributing to the country's diverse multicultural society. My ancestors from India were already mixed with Irish when they were brought by the British to the West Indies during the days of slavery. They willing left India to escape the caste system in India with never to return to that in return to a better life in the Caribbean. It's a pity that with such a rich & wealthy film Industry in India like Bollywood, there is still so much poverty on their streets and more so it should be the #1 role model in the world to rid racism & colour of skin & the caste system after so many centuries.
Thank you so much for the input Vanesha
Kiddo.. U never been to india so don't assume .. By some random western propaganda made videos... Lots of changed from past 15,20 years
Myself is from so called lower class(more specically m a secdule caste) ..
Never ever faced racism here.. And m from uttar pradesh..
But u what I got being a lower caste..
Free education till college... Free meal in primary schools(btw it's for every student and it's not like wester fried food full of carbs and calories) .. Free Electricity, free grains(rice, wheat, pulse and cooking oil too), money from government to build house who don't have proper house, free water, free cooking gas,.. And also we got reservation in every government sector for jobs and promotion... Unlucky u that ur forefathers never returned.. Now india is reclaiming.. It's a 5th largest economy.. Soon going to be thrird... Their is lots of opportunity here in indian, its 3rd best country for startuo ecosystem. Only after USA and china, 4 biggest stock market, 4th largest car manufacturing, largest 2 and 3 wheller manufacturer, 2 largest mobile manufacturer, etc u name it india is in top 5 list in every sector... Either it's manufacturing, information technology, or advance technology.. Like space exploration, artifical intelligence, etc... That's why whole world invested here..
And u talked about poverty.. Their is 1.5 billion people here so is next to impossible to ericade 100% poverty... Ur world Bank and imf published report last year they say india almost vanished extreme poverty from their country.. Now only less than 3% people are in extere poverty..
If u use logic .. Than go compare ur country with india even country also has some. Percent people who are in poverty.. Maybe it's biiger in percent
Please read about the Industrialisation period in England - the process of enclosure- and the potato famine of the Irish- A similar policy was implemented in India then that brought famine to India every decade by their farming policies during the British period. The caste system is prevalent in every society today, they call it a division of labour and no famine in India after the British were kicked out.
You are so much brainwash . you guys left country but your self hate and self shame is not go away still. Good luck. if you see so much problem then then don't recognise and relate you have Indian ancestry please. it's shame for as that you have Indian ancestry
Your comment smacks of ignorance and hatred for the country of your origin/ your Swadesh/ your Motherland. I could see how you've fallen for propaganda about caste by western media. Caste is not even a Hindu word, it was introduced by Portuguese foreigners as "casta" and maintained by British who ironically have an aristocracy and love to look down on others but nobody talks about that right? They only love hating on India and Hindus and I'm sick of it. I'm so proud of my Swadesh for the strides She's made after the devastating effects of colonialism. Did you know the British stole TRILLIONS from India, including the crown jewel, the Kohinoor? These should be returned. Did you know Winston Churchill caused millions to die from the Bengal Famine in the 1770s when he diverted resources for his troops? Yes, Bhaarat India, once a prosperous country with cities and castles paved with gold became poor under the British. Such slum-like conditions of which you speak did not exist then. And you're spitting on India for not being able to overcome centuries of devastation and invasions fast enough for your liking? Ask colonizers to return their stolen loot first. Also, if caste system was such an issue, why is Narendra Modi from so-called Shudra class the Prime Minister, and why is the President a Dalit woman??? Who can explain this? No one. But, people like you like to bash India, even worse when it's your own Motherland. So unfortunate. Anyhow, Bhaarat is poised to be most developed nation soon and hosted G8 summit recently. Know your facts.
There was no pakistan and bangladesh in 1830 to 1931. Pakistan was created in august 1947.Bangladesh was created in 1971. It was called British India.
Thank you
Public comment. I am happy and proud of India 🇮🇳 ❤. God bless gandi who fight for freedom against the slave Master who bullys and crooks.

Gandhi was a kaala angrez and his loyalty was towards the british throne. He deliberately delayed the independence of Bharat / India. He was recruiting soldiers to fight for the britishers and at the same time he was preaching non-violence nonsense to Hindus. He is responsible for the death of millions of Hindus with his non-violence nonsense. He was a hard core muslim appeaser and was always protecting them. He allowed the creation of Pakistan and Bangladesh and begged g-hadis not to leave for Pakistan. Gandhi made sure that the policies of the british were continued through Nehru. Hindus are still paying the price for that.
@@satveerrudra8424thanks for clearing that up. Our history books are filled with a lot of lies and the traitor Gandhi is often portrayed as a hero.
humanity first started in Africa and slowly as people stated migrating to other areas different cultures and countries formed...that is why they all look same....stop complaining about past....there were wars, migrations, forced migrations....stop complaining and move on....try to assimilate where you are...
India, now, first largest country ahead of China as of 2024
you are absolutely right. the information was incorrect. Canada 🇨🇦 is the world secon largest country not India
At 2:20, how did these people come from Pakistan and Bangladesh, when those countries did not exist in the 19th century. In fact, even India did not exist until the British unified the different chiefdoms, principalities, kingdoms, castes and tribes of southern Asia. India was a geographical region such as the Sahara desert or the Amazon forest. Even now, India is a single country only in name. People in one region of India don't understand those from other regions. They don't look like one another, often even remotely. The Indian government has no choice, but to use the English to communicate with everyday Indians.
Thanks for your input Christian
Bollywood songs are mostly Urdu not Hindi.
Urdu is a made up language using Sanskrit/Hindi grammar with many words from Sanskrit replaced by an equivalent Farsi (Persian) or Arabic word. The script uses Persian instead of devanagari. Like English, it is a non-indic language used by invaders and colonizers to impose foreign rules and religions on the local indigenous people.
You can learn more from Dr Meenakshi Jain videos and books.
I hope your checking that former president David A granger commerated the arrival of Indianas with an indian immigration monument
and he isnt indian hes afro guyanese
where the monuments to afro guyanese
very welcoming ,accommodating ,acknowledging
the reverse is often not afforded
No one fight more for afro guyanese than irfaan ali, he's the only president in the world that has the balls, to ask the British for repatriation for the Africans.
The whole world is crowded from this community ?????
And they are contributing to Engineering medicine technology and now space technology. How awful
Are Indians flooding the southern border, the Lampedusa island, or European countries?
Yes indians are everywhere 😊
They are contribute good things in society not bad things like you guys do
interesting how surinam identifies as a carribbean nation yet its on the mainland of south America Latin America
but the language is dutch so really and trully its not british westindian culture
Thank you for all your input Chris and for watching
Guyana's first European colonizers were Dutch. Guyana became British after the Anglo Dutch War at the beginning of the 19th century. East Indians are the largest section of the Guyanese population.
50 years or so ago there used to be quite lot of intermingling between British Guiana (Guyana) and Suriname.
Pakistan nor Bangla Desh did not exist from 1878 to 1917 so how did people come from there? Indentured labour means contract labour, get your facts right, please!
I didn't realise India is the second biggest country! Google says seventh biggest.
I think he meant it in terms of Population
India presently has the largest population in the world surpassing China
@@arman7861you are correct

you all can go to India in stead of looking for ways to settle in Western countries...now that india is welcoming non Indian Hindus back...let's see how many wants to go...
@@whateva12345 still looking for your point in my comment
@@whateva12345why they leave their place, Caribbean is also belong to them because they born in this country.
It is the European colonial rulers who sent Indians to Sri Lanka, Mauritius, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, Fiji, malaysia, Singapore etc to work on sugar, cotton & other plantations as Endentured Labourers ! And today they are Citizens of these Countries !
Thank you so much for your input!
7273 and thank God the british did we in Guyana and the west indies are so richer for this, so stop running down the British. cant change the past, we in Guyana are happy where we are.
The indians from india were indentured laborers not their off springs who were borned in those countries.They were still considered british india national.
You missed out Jamaican 🇯🇲
its all in the past, we in Guyana are fed up about hearing the past .we are Guyanese now and we are very happy where we are and we are not indians, but Guyanese of indian desent, so dont try to make us some thing we are not.
What an ignorant comment. You can't be speaking on behalf of all Guyanese because there are many who are very proud of their Indian heritage. Being born in another country does not mean you don't have ancestors' blood running through your veins. You should find out the real history of what your ancestors went through instead of being ungrateful. History books tell a lot of lies and teach Indians to hate themselves. If you don't know the truth about the past, you'll always be caught in a web of lies. I wonder if in future when you have offspring or grandkids and they say they couldn't care less about you and your life doesn't matter, if that will be fine with you? All I can say is, the wise will learn the truth about the past, but if you choose to remain ignorant, that's your choice. Don't belittle those who are trying to learn.
Doubles was a Trini invention.
Ganja is deeply ingrained?
Dude....what crap are you talking?
I think he means to say the use of the word "Ganja", because it's a Hindi word.
