I am a born Bajan but grew up in the UK and at that time when asked where I was from. The Jamaicans regularly referred to Barbados as 'small Island '. The Jamaicans in the UK certainly looked down on other Islands then.
Thank you for sharing, I honestly don’t think that saying small island 🏝️ was Jamaicans trying to be disrespectful. Growing up in Jamaica everyone say small island even when talking about Cuba 🇨🇺 and Haiti 🇭🇹. We would call America 🇺🇸 Canada 🇨🇦 and the UK 🇬🇧 foreign and anywhere in the Caribbean we would say small island, it’s more about the way we talk. Because they would say small islands with pride and happiness when they get a chance to go work in one of the other islands.
I have used the term "small island" many times and have many Jamaicans that I personally know. Not no point was it ever meant to be disrespectful. I've worked for years with many people from other Caribbean Island and I also attend church with other Caribbean people, we love each other.
@@carib21network That's it right there. That is where the hate came form. They despise Jamaicans, because we used the term small Islands. I can assure you there is nothing disparaging about that.
People on here are delusional and not being honest. All you have to do is go on any video of Barbados or Trinidad that a foreign vlogger puts up and read the negative comments from the jamaicans. That's all.....then go find a video of jamaica and i guarantee you that there isn't one negative comment about jamaicans from trinis or bajans .
I think you will find negative people anywhere you go but that’s not the reality for most of the people from the Caribbean and you see how loving and together Caribbean people are when you go to any Caribbean community in North America.
You can't believe everything on social media. There are many people pretending to be Jamaicans and causing hatred. I have met person from Barbados and we love each other. Look at our prime ministers does it look like there is an ounce of bad blood there? I have never heard about Bajans hating Jamaicans nor Jamaicans hating Bajans...we have to stay together...one caribbean
And you are very certain that all of these people that claim to be Jamaicans, really are Jamaicans. There seems to be a concerted effort to create a chasm between Jamaica and the rest of the Caribbean along with black America. I personally have never heard any negative remarks, geared to any Caribbean Islands, from my fellow Jamaicans. If they harbour this sentiment, they keep it under wraps and if you Jamaicans, they cannot keep their mouths shut about anything. They stand in front of the bars and domino tables voicing their opinions at the tops of their voices, or create a dancehall song with their grievance as the theme. There may be individuals who have had personal grievances, but this is definitely not a general theme.
In November 2024 the Prime Minister of Barbados opened the new national Marcus Garvey Amphitheater and there's the Usain Bolt stadium named years ago without any questions asked by the bajans. These were all embraced locally by the population. I am a bajan working with Jamaicans for 20 years some great people from a beautiful country. There are so many similarities between Barbados and Jamaica. There is good and bad everywhere. I refuse to be a part of any preceived hatred between these peoples.
Watching from New York am Jamaican and I marry a Bajan it’s the best man I’ve ever met in my life I wish I know him when I was 10 to grow old with him we’ve been married 10 years and still going strong … every Caribbean island should see each other as one because we are !!! ❤
Weeelllllllll....that's news to me....a born and bred Jamaican, with a Bajan paternal grandmother and with a best friend whose father was Bajan.

He didn’t like your mom for whatever reason. Who knows what the reason was. It’s not good to generalize . My grandfather is from Barbados and I love my Bajan people and they us Jamaicans.

This wasapproximately 70 years ago and even though we decided to go for full independence, we as a nation did not dislike the other islands. We just, stupidly thought that we were able to stand on our own. Hey, a nation has to try. It may not have gone as well as they thought it would, but our forefathers thought they were doing the right thing for our island.
Once again ~ no lies detected. Barbados' first PM, Errol Barrow, best described the Caribbean relationship by referencing "our inestimable bonds of consanguinity." As you noted, the Trini-Bar-Lucian, Vincy-Jam-Tiguan circumstance abounds. WI absolutely love each other. Sure, family bicker from time to time, but, by and large, WI are one united people from many parishes ... joined by water ~ the parish of Barbados 🇧🇧, the parish of Jamaica 🇯🇲, parish of Trinidad&Tobago 🇹🇹, parish of St. Lucia 🇱🇨, etc. ReggaeBoyz, SocaWarriors, the steelpan, reggae, Marley, Machel, Rihanna -- they all belong to WI, and we love em all no matter which Caribbean parish they're from. One love, one heart!
The answer is Nooooo! We Jamaicans dont hate anyone from the caribbean. There are some Jamaicans who are hostile esp on social media. We have very dysfunctional youths. I dont want my caribbean brothers and sisters to think this. Social media is destroying us. I have friends from Trinidad, Dominica, Guyana, and St Maarten and we love each other
First time I’m hearing about this im a bajan and 2 of my best friends were actually Jamaican and I also have family from Jamaica,there is one thing i know a lot of Caribbean people don’t like is when they are overseas and people always come up to them assuming they are Jamaican and it makes alot of them gets annoyed by the way these people think the entire Caribbean is Jamaica
This is so true, I came to the US in 1977 and most people once they hear an accent they always say they are from Jamaica. I don’t know what it is, but for some reason they mostly associate any accents that the person is from Jamaica. Even if they’re from Africa. FYI, my grandfather’s from Barbados my grandmother is from Jamaica. I was born in Jamaica. Love all Caribbean people were are one family.❤❤❤
@ yes it’s like they can’t tell the difference in accents and I have seen a lot of people say they dislike how some people assume Jamaica is the only island in the Caribbean and I have even seen some Jamaicans rubbing it in other West Indians face so I’m not surprised if some other Caribbean people don’t like Jamaicans
Yes I’m Jamaican and I have seen it happen all the time even with my wife who’s from St Vincent and people ask her if she’s Jamaican and when she says no they look confused 🤔
When I heard of tensions between Bajans and T&T it was over flying fish, who owns the fish? The sea! It's on Bajan money but I hear T&T loves them as well. I never heard of any Bajan and Jamaican issues.
The flying fish left Barbados a long time back and have been living in Tobago waters 😂😂😂😂. The bajans now have to ask kindly to fish in Tobago if they want to get the flying fish. Some of their fishermen fail at times to obtain the required permit and there is where the controversy resides. Tobago should now be called the land of the flying fish 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐠🐠🐠🐠🐠🐠🐠
@matthesagregg5679 the reason why that is because Jamaicans like to look down on people from smaller Caribbean Islands Jamaicans have this kind of negative arrogance similar to the black American where they think they are superior and better then there own people from other island let's all be HONEST STRAIGHT and REAL I live in London England now seen it too many times with Jamaicans here in London Jamaica's need to stop with this NEGATIVE BS ATTITUDE
G/M my brother I am a Jamaica seventh day Adventist first working in the hotel industry at a early age meeting people from all over the world but when I came to the America I at our church I was realizing I that we have family all the countries and more so the islands we must not let dumb and evil ideology crippled our peaceful Godly intelligence to break up our God given relationships thanks for the history reminder be bless ONE LOVE
I think alot of those horrible rumours were generated outside of the caribbean. I heard the small island comment a lot from JAs in late 90s and how Bajans eat Monkey and all that madness. But things have changed and when you go to the caribbean itself we all love eachother! My family is mixed with Bajan, Dominican, Jamaican, St Lucians, Trini's, etc. In 2024 all we west Indians, caribbeans have love and respect for eachother ❤❤
There has always been a little competition disagreements between Bajans and Jamaicans. But overall the Jamaican culture influences Some people from Barbados and from my person interaction with Jamaicans I have never had a negative encounter. But I have never visited Jamaica directly. I have to do that soon to interact with Jamaicans in their own environment. Some Bajan generalize Jamaicans as aggressive and violent. Some actually see this as having a strong personality and admirable. My encounters with Jamaicans have not been any different form other carribean people. Most rivalry came from politics and sports competitiveness.
Jamaicans do not hate any of our neighbors, it is usually the other way around. I know that there are annamosities between Jamaicans and Trinidad, but it's not from the local people but the authorities from the Trini side. But Jamaicans are very loving to most outsiders even more than ourselves.
No. I've never ever heard that among Barbadians. In fact, Barbados has very close cultural bonds with Jamaica. Actually, as I have been made to understand, Barbadians such as Jackie Opal played a prominent role in the development of ska and reggae in Jamaica. Please correct me if I am wrong. What has emerged of late in Barbados is an explosion in the Jamaican population. Due to the economic stresses being experienced in Barbados, coupled with the small size of Barbados, some Barbadians have expressed, as can be understood, some concern about the sudden spike in the rise of Jamaican nationals. But it is not an outcry. Another reason why it is not an outcry is because it is generally understood by Bajans that Barbados has always been a hotspot for Caribbean migration. That has contributed to the flavour of Barbados. I commend you highly for so clearly setting the political and historical backdrop of the rivalry between the islands. However, I believe the wounds of the failed West Indies Federation are still there. Strangely, those wounds may be the reason why Caricom appears to have been in a type of limbo over the past decade and a half. But you, Sir, take a bow! You are doing an excellent job!
Im vincy british and I've had loads of bajan and jamacian friends and work colleagues. I've even had a couple of bajan and jamacian girlfriends. However I ended up marrying a Guyanese bird. Im old school like the old west indies cricket 🏏 team. Together the caribbean is fab. Yes man.
I am a Bajan living in the USA Michigan. People ask are you from Africa I oftentimes, say no The follow-up question are you from Jamaica, I say no I am a Caribbean man first and foremost I am proud to say Barbados 🇧🇧 a Bajan. I always keep it in the back of my head with a main focus West Indies cricket have kept us together successfully. I don't think Bajan hates Jamaicans or Trinidadians hate no ones in the Caribbean make up. We have many folklures run shop stories but nothing is about hate. Just stories of old folklore. With the federation way back then was what it is since then Lawrence Rowe, Carl Hooper, Bob Marley, Jimmy Cliff, Michael Manley, Bolt, Greenidge, Haynes, Marshall, Garner, Worrell, Sobers, Hall, Holding, Dujon, Hilary Beckles, Gayle, have the spirit of the two countries strong and united. Grace products as well. But one man that really being the Caribbean together is Clive Lloyd. They only negative base of the story is that old federation story However, cricket, athletics, the UWI and music 🎶 have bond us as a united front. As strong 💪 Caribbean people all fully understanding and loving out very countries but never hating each other.
@@carib21network you definitely should listen it lol my mother knows the lyrics of this song, federation was very important to that generation. I tell her "you wouldn't have liked federation anyway had it happened", as a joke.
Sir Grantley Adams was never Prime Minister of Barbados, he was the Premier because Barbados was not Independent in 1958. The first Prime Minister was Errol Barrow in 1966. If the Federation was allowed to continue the Caŕibbean would have been different.
I’m not creating division I did the video in response to a comment that someone made about my visit to Barbados 🇧🇧 and not because you never heard about something don’t mean that it doesn’t exist.
Go watch African tigress, wode maya, mark weins, video in other Caribbean countries then scroll down into the comments it's saturated with jamaicans talking negatively about Eastern Caribbean islands.....they even told African tigress if you go visit Trinidad don't come back to Jamaica. Prof is there who has animosity to who.
@@stillirise7813I follow African Tigress, Dee Wmango, Wode Maya etc for yrs now. That was a joke saying if you go to TT‘s don’t come back to Jamaica that can’t be true. Trinidad and JAMAICA don’t have no problems. Having all these people vlogging from all over the Caribbean you see how similar all of us are our food and our cultures are very similar. City, we need to spread love and stop all the animosity among our Caribbean people. I have friends from all over the Caribbean. I love every one of them equally. ❤❤❤
@beverlytash5432 it was no joke. Even African Tigress had enough and told her jamaican trolls she can go were she please, and even chastised a couple of them and asked what is your problem with Trinidad. The videos are still up go see for yourself
I think hate is a strong word, but indifference did occur between the Caribbean islands back in the Windrush era. I was told, that our parents and grandparents especially from Jamaica were not happy with fellow Caribbeans, apart from the Trinidardians, when it came to fighting against the racist teddy boys as other Caribs were reluctant to join in the fight against them. Even, though this division was rife among the elders, it was not so evident among the younger generation, where you found friendship in schools, clubs, and parties; because we were all reveling in the same entertainment whether it be reggae or calypso cum Soca. Today, I believe cricket has a role to play in the unity of the Caribbean islands along the Rastafarian movement that spread across the islands preaching the doctrine of ONE LOVE in the music of Bob Marley, Burning Spear, Culture, Morgan Heritage, etc, This has helped to unite the Caribbean islands in many ways and now we are using the term ONE CARIBBEAN. You will now find that Jamaicans are in relationships with Bajans, Bajans, with Trini's, Trini's with Antiguans, Antiguans with St Lucians, St Lucians with those from St Kitts and Kittician's in relationships with those from St Vincent and Dominica. Long may it last 🙏🙌💚💛❤💯💥😎
I don’t do click bait, from a child growing up in Jamaica 🇯🇲 I always heard people saying that people from Trinidad 🇹🇹 and Barbados 🇧🇧 don’t like Jamaicans and when I lived in Bermuda I heard people talking about the same about other islands. And on one of my videos from my recent visit to Barbados mentioned that Jamaicans don’t like Bajans
@@carib21networkthe only islands that have issues with Jamaicans is Trinidad and Bahamas. Trinidad immigration officers give Jamaican people hell and last year when the Bahamas hosted the Carifta games they clearly showed the world that they didn’t like Jamaicans.
Thank you for watching and yes it might be ridiculous but that’s how some people feel and it’s always good to talk and get a understanding why people feel the way they feel
Yea that’s how we spoke back in the days . It wasn’t about disrespect , we called all Caribbean islands small islands including Cuba 🇨🇺 that’s much bigger than Jamaica 🇯🇲 and we used to call Canada 🇨🇦 America 🇺🇸 and the UK foreign
And the problem with that? If they did not, I would not have been born in my beautiful island. I would not be a part of the Caribbean, with relatives from Barbaods and Tirnidad/Tobago. I, for one, am truly grateful for their having come to the Caribbean. I hate that there was slavery, but without it I would not exist in this form and this land, as a representative of all that went before.
Nobody hate nobody... That's crap. Ppl talking and saying that without any real evidence. Where is the proof though?. Caribbean church ..we married one another we dog out each other about who have better what.. that just us ,we laugh at one another accent ,but let an outsider say something about a Jamaican even if we just done cuss, one another .. yo better not !😂
Is more how people do things but every island is good in their own right i think at the time of Seaga and Manley their were a lot of negativity that came out of Jamaica and some islands take it seriously is not how big you are is who could accommodate every one view point
The evidence says other wise. Go look at vloggers who go to the Caribbean and look in the comments 99% it's jamaicans talking greasy about people food and culture and bragging about themselves.
Not to be offending other Caribbean islands, but Jamaica is the most popular island in the Caribbean. Not to take from the other islands they’re absolutely beautiful as well but for some reason,most people know the name, JAMAICA. It’s not our fault. We didn’t do anything to cause this…..🤔 I feel like now with social media and just world changes. People are learning about the other Caribbean countries as well. I’m now seeing commercials for more Caribbean vacation destinations.
Never bajan love jamdown people you joking check the artis them everyone who perform here will say to you,na dem baǰan love we dem treet we good ,food, fun ,its trinidadian we just dont like us their say we think we smart,just that everytime their just cant trick us.
That's like saying white people don't like black people, vs but they still integrate. Yes I have heard it all my life too, I've been asked that question by a Guyanese an Antiguan, never by Jamaican, but I tell them I do not know about that because I have nothing against anyone.🫢
The British chose Jamaican to help them help and and build many colonies in the Caribbean and south and central America, the British think that Jamaican is tough like white people, they also believe that Bahamian was tough like Jamaican people the British chose Jamaican and Bahamian to compete a lot of task, I found a book Authored by a American in the 1930s the Title say THE JOB THAT CAUSE GENERATION OF HATE, the book was about the building of the Panama canal ,the American hire 100,000 , Jamaican and 1000 Bahamian and zero Barbadian ,but later hire a lot of other Caribbean people,when Barbadian arrive in Panama they say Jamaican people there in charge the Jamaican was the foreman, supervisor ,teacher ,there was a communication problem ,with Spanish speaking people who speak Spanish so they hire a lot of Jamaican as teachers this make Jamaican rich, Barbadian and Trinidadisj start to get Jealous, the same thing happen England when the Barbadian arrived they saw Jamaican with good Jobs and they get very JELOUS of Jamaica,these things happen a long time ago today Generation finally known why Barbarian don't like Jamaican people.
I would have to take a look at that book. I know Jamaicans were used to build the Panama 🇵🇦 canal but it’s not because they were better it’s just because Jamaica had the largest population in the British Caribbean.
@carib21network Not so fast ! largest population don't have anything to do with this forget Panama canal ,also England after WW 2 the British only want Jamaican & Bahamian in England ,but later bring over every other Caribbean people, the American plan to build the Panama canal but they did not want to fail like the French so they do a study to find out why the french fail and the finding is. Because of tropical disease and inferior labourer, the British advise the American to Hire no nonsense labourer but the best was Jamaican and Bahamian that's why out of the 101,000 labourer they hire 100,000 was Jamaican,the Jamaican & Bahamian was very successful that prompt them to hire more CARIBBEAN people, you can find this unfo if you search real good.
Bajans built the Panama canal also. There are documentaries on that on utube with testimony from actual Bajans talking about their experience. Instead here we go with the jamaicans are the strongest and everyone in the Caribbean jealous wi rhetoric. This is exactly what we are talking about.
The truirh is Bajan hate Jamaican, I have heard this long time ago ,until the ,I found out that during the days when the Caribbean was trying to unite as union Barbados want the Headquarters to be in Bridgetown Barbados at that time JAMAICA was the Richest Caribbean Island that means that JAMAICA would have to give Barbados a lot of or most of the money JAMAICA withdrew from the union and ever since that Barbadian people think that Jamaican eat there white fowl and start Haitiing Jamaican people.
Thank you for watching but I think you got your information wrong. Jamaica 🇯🇲 was not the richest Caribbean island in 1958 that would have been Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 and that’s why the head office ended up in Port of Spain and the decision to give Barbados 🇧🇧 the first Prime Minister came from the British government and I don’t think you can say Bajans hate Jamaicans because of that because most people in the Caribbean don’t know the history about the West Indies federation.
You have nothing to badmind you about....30k of you flee and runaway to our country. We don't go to Jamaica for nothing except for business and to buy your airline.

Barbados' first PM, Errol Barrow, best described the Caribbean relationship by referencing "our inestimable bonds of consanguinity." As you noted, the Trini-Bar-Lucian, Vincy-Jam-Tiguan circumstance abounds. WI absolutely love each other.
Sure, family bicker from time to time, but, by and large, WI are one united people from many parishes ... joined by water ~ the parish of Barbados 🇧🇧, the parish of Jamaica 🇯🇲, parish of Trinidad&Tobago 🇹🇹, parish of St. Lucia 🇱🇨, etc.
ReggaeBoyz, SocaWarriors, the steelpan, reggae, Marley, Machel, Rihanna -- they all belong to WI, and we love em all no matter which Caribbean parish they're from. One love, one heart!
Thank you for sharing
The answer is Nooooo! We Jamaicans dont hate anyone from the caribbean. There are some Jamaicans who are hostile esp on social media. We have very dysfunctional youths. I dont want my caribbean brothers and sisters to think this. Social media is destroying us. I have friends from Trinidad, Dominica, Guyana, and St Maarten and we love each other
One Caribbean

I NEVER HEAR JAMAICA HATE BARBADOS
First time , I was told that Barbadians despised Jamaicans. I for one never heard Jamaicans spoke negatively about any other Islands.
😅😅😅😅
😂😂😂
That's cap.
First time I’m hearing about this im a bajan and 2 of my best friends were actually Jamaican and I also have family from Jamaica,there is one thing i know a lot of Caribbean people don’t like is when they are overseas and people always come up to them assuming they are Jamaican and it makes alot of them gets annoyed by the way these people think the entire Caribbean is Jamaica
This is so true, I came to the US in 1977 and most people once they hear an accent they always say they are from Jamaica. I don’t know what it is, but for some reason they mostly associate any accents that the person is from Jamaica. Even if they’re from Africa. FYI, my grandfather’s from Barbados my grandmother is from Jamaica. I was born in Jamaica. Love all Caribbean people were are one family.❤❤❤
@ yes it’s like they can’t tell the difference in accents and I have seen a lot of people say they dislike how some people assume Jamaica is the only island in the Caribbean and I have even seen some Jamaicans rubbing it in other West Indians face so I’m not surprised if some other Caribbean people don’t like Jamaicans
Yes I’m Jamaican and I have seen it happen all the time even with my wife who’s from St Vincent and people ask her if she’s Jamaican and when she says no they look confused 🤔
There are a lot of Jamaicans living in Barbados so I don't think they hate each other.
Thank you for your contribution to the conversation 🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧
Bajan love jamaican ❤so stop that talk and let us live as one bro bob
A couple of issues between a few people does not define the whole experience and relationship of the peoples of the Caribbean.
Perfectly said
Exactly, 100% agree
Hi I live in New York and I have some much friends from the Caribbean and that’s great and I am from Barbados so that’s not true
New York Caribbean community is very big
When I heard of tensions between Bajans and T&T it was over flying fish, who owns the fish? The sea! It's on Bajan money but I hear T&T loves them as well. I never heard of any Bajan and Jamaican issues.
I recently heard about the flying fish controversy 🇹🇹🇧🇧
The flying fish left Barbados a long time back and have been living in Tobago waters 😂😂😂😂. The bajans now have to ask kindly to fish in Tobago if they want to get the flying fish. Some of their fishermen fail at times to obtain the required permit and there is where the controversy resides. Tobago should now be called the land of the flying fish 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐠🐠🐠🐠🐠🐠🐠
No sir. This Jamaican went to college and University with Caribbean people. They were all my friends. Mico and UWI.
Thank you for watching and that’s how it should be one Caribbean
Nonsense how you going ta get Bob Marley without Jackie Opel where is Usain Bolt. Stadium..
Usain Bolt stadium is in barbados..an we ain't changing the name 😂😂❤❤
My son is Bajam! It works for me.
Nah man, bajans love jamaicans. I've never heard anyone say they dislike jamaicans.
🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Some people from the smaller Caribbean islands aren't always fond of Jamaicans. The perception is that they are boastful people.
@matthesagregg5679 the reason why that is because Jamaicans like to look down on people from smaller Caribbean Islands Jamaicans have this kind of negative arrogance similar to the black American where they think they are superior and better then there own people from other island let's all be HONEST STRAIGHT and REAL I live in London England now seen it too many times with Jamaicans here in London Jamaica's need to stop with this NEGATIVE BS ATTITUDE
That's a bald face lie ! if you want me to priivr it I can send you the evedence
Bajans lay back while jamaicans more loud and open minded, its only personality difference ,some bajand not gonna open up to everyone
Thank you for sharing 🇧🇧🇧🇧🇯🇲🇯🇲
G/M my brother I am a Jamaica seventh day Adventist first working in the hotel industry at a early age meeting people from all over the world but when I came to the America I at our church I was realizing I that we have family all the countries and more so the islands we must not let dumb and evil ideology crippled our peaceful Godly intelligence to break up our God given relationships thanks for the history reminder be bless ONE LOVE
Thank you for watching and I’m also Jamaican SDA hotel worker
I think alot of those horrible rumours were generated outside of the caribbean. I heard the small island comment a lot from JAs in late 90s and how Bajans eat Monkey and all that madness. But things have changed and when you go to the caribbean itself we all love eachother! My family is mixed with Bajan, Dominican, Jamaican, St Lucians, Trini's, etc. In 2024 all we west Indians, caribbeans have love and respect for eachother ❤❤
You are 100% correct
There has always been a little competition disagreements between Bajans and Jamaicans. But overall the Jamaican culture influences Some people from Barbados and from my person interaction with Jamaicans I have never had a negative encounter. But I have never visited Jamaica directly. I have to do that soon to interact with Jamaicans in their own environment. Some Bajan generalize Jamaicans as aggressive and violent. Some actually see this as having a strong personality and admirable. My encounters with Jamaicans have not been any different form other carribean people. Most rivalry came from politics and sports competitiveness.
Thank you for sharing and you made some great points
Jamaicans do not hate any of our neighbors, it is usually the other way around.
I know that there are annamosities between Jamaicans and Trinidad, but it's not from the local people but the authorities from the Trini side.
But Jamaicans are very loving to most outsiders even more than ourselves.
Thank you for your feedback 🇧🇧🇹🇹🇯🇲
That was jealousy of Jamaican politics back then...they started the jealousy rivalry...😂
It’s more like politicians want power and control for themselves
No. I've never ever heard that among Barbadians. In fact, Barbados has very close cultural bonds with Jamaica. Actually, as I have been made to understand, Barbadians such as Jackie Opal played a prominent role in the development of ska and reggae in Jamaica. Please correct me if I am wrong. What has emerged of late in Barbados is an explosion in the Jamaican population. Due to the economic stresses being experienced in Barbados, coupled with the small size of Barbados, some Barbadians have expressed, as can be understood, some concern about the sudden spike in the rise of Jamaican nationals. But it is not an outcry. Another reason why it is not an outcry is because it is generally understood by Bajans that Barbados has always been a hotspot for Caribbean migration. That has contributed to the flavour of Barbados. I commend you highly for so clearly setting the political and historical backdrop of the rivalry between the islands. However, I believe the wounds of the failed West Indies Federation are still there. Strangely, those wounds may be the reason why Caricom appears to have been in a type of limbo over the past decade and a half. But you, Sir, take a bow! You are doing an excellent job!
No hatred here my brother..
One love one Caribbean 🇧🇧🇯🇲🇹🇹
Im vincy british and I've had loads of bajan and jamacian friends and work colleagues. I've even had a couple of bajan and jamacian girlfriends. However I ended up marrying a Guyanese bird. Im old school like the old west indies cricket 🏏 team. Together the caribbean is fab. Yes man.
Thank you for sharing and yes the West Indies is fab
I am a Bajan living in the USA Michigan.
People ask are you from Africa
I oftentimes, say no
The follow-up question are you from Jamaica, I say no
I am a Caribbean man first and foremost
I am proud to say Barbados 🇧🇧 a Bajan.
I always keep it in the back of my head with a main focus
West Indies cricket have kept us together successfully.
I don't think Bajan hates Jamaicans or Trinidadians hate no ones in the Caribbean make up.
We have many folklures run shop stories but nothing is about hate.
Just stories of old folklore.
With the federation way back then was what it is since then
Lawrence Rowe, Carl Hooper, Bob Marley, Jimmy Cliff, Michael Manley, Bolt, Greenidge, Haynes, Marshall, Garner, Worrell, Sobers, Hall, Holding, Dujon, Hilary Beckles, Gayle, have the spirit of the two countries strong and united.
Grace products as well.
But one man that really being the Caribbean together is Clive Lloyd.
They only negative base of the story is that old federation story
However, cricket, athletics, the UWI and music 🎶 have bond us as a united front.
As strong 💪 Caribbean people all fully understanding and loving out very countries but never hating each other.
The Mighty Sparrow have a song called federation that sums it up perfectly. Listen to it.
Thank you I will go check it out
@@carib21network you definitely should listen it lol my mother knows the lyrics of this song, federation was very important to that generation. I tell her "you wouldn't have liked federation anyway had it happened", as a joke.
We love them 💯💯🌍😇🙏 as a Jamaican ❤️💛💚😍🫡✅.
🇧🇧🇧🇧🇯🇲🇯🇲
Sir Grantley Adams was never Prime Minister of Barbados, he was the Premier because Barbados was not Independent in 1958. The first Prime Minister was Errol Barrow in 1966. If the Federation was allowed to continue the Caŕibbean would have been different.
Better or worst? what's your opinion?
Stop creating division. I've never heard of this before.
I’m not creating division I did the video in response to a comment that someone made about my visit to Barbados 🇧🇧 and not because you never heard about something don’t mean that it doesn’t exist.
You must live under a rock or being disingenuous
On the other hand, some people thinks that a person should only marry people of their own islands / countries...but am Vincy and my man is bajan
🇧🇧🇧🇧🇻🇨🇻🇨
I'm vincy british and my wife's Guyanese british.
Go watch African tigress, wode maya, mark weins, video in other Caribbean countries then scroll down into the comments it's saturated with jamaicans talking negatively about Eastern Caribbean islands.....they even told African tigress if you go visit Trinidad don't come back to Jamaica. Prof is there who has animosity to who.
@@stillirise7813I follow African Tigress, Dee Wmango, Wode Maya etc for yrs now. That was a joke saying if you go to TT‘s don’t come back to Jamaica that can’t be true. Trinidad and JAMAICA don’t have no problems. Having all these people vlogging from all over the Caribbean you see how similar all of us are our food and our cultures are very similar. City, we need to spread love and stop all the animosity among our Caribbean people. I have friends from all over the Caribbean. I love every one of them equally. ❤❤❤
@beverlytash5432 it was no joke. Even African Tigress had enough and told her jamaican trolls she can go were she please, and even chastised a couple of them and asked what is your problem with Trinidad. The videos are still up go see for yourself
I think hate is a strong word, but indifference did occur between the Caribbean islands back in the Windrush era. I was told, that our parents and grandparents especially from Jamaica were not happy with fellow Caribbeans, apart from the Trinidardians, when it came to fighting against the racist teddy boys as other Caribs were reluctant to join in the fight against them. Even, though this division was rife among the elders, it was not so evident among the younger generation, where you found friendship in schools, clubs, and parties; because we were all reveling in the same entertainment whether it be reggae or calypso cum Soca. Today, I believe cricket has a role to play in the unity of the Caribbean islands along the Rastafarian movement that spread across the islands preaching the doctrine of ONE LOVE in the music of Bob Marley, Burning Spear, Culture, Morgan Heritage, etc, This has helped to unite the Caribbean islands in many ways and now we are using the term ONE CARIBBEAN. You will now find that Jamaicans are in relationships with Bajans, Bajans, with Trini's, Trini's with Antiguans, Antiguans with St Lucians, St Lucians with those from St Kitts and Kittician's in relationships with those from St Vincent and Dominica. Long may it last 🙏🙌💚💛❤💯💥😎
west indies cricket team should split tho, men can't even beat Bangladesh in the caribbean lol
I think this is click bait. I never heard that before. I think you know that Jamaicans don’t have any problems with bajans.
I don’t do click bait, from a child growing up in Jamaica 🇯🇲 I always heard people saying that people from Trinidad 🇹🇹 and Barbados 🇧🇧 don’t like Jamaicans and when I lived in Bermuda I heard people talking about the same about other islands. And on one of my videos from my recent visit to Barbados mentioned that Jamaicans don’t like Bajans
@@carib21networkthe only islands that have issues with Jamaicans is Trinidad and Bahamas. Trinidad immigration officers give Jamaican people hell and last year when the Bahamas hosted the Carifta games they clearly showed the world that they didn’t like Jamaicans.
Eveyones experience is not the same.
Hell no, we are one people.
One Caribbean
I live in canada, i can tell you they don't like us.
Really? Can you explain why you feel that way
Ridiculous, one comment and you did a program on this B.S , you grew up in JA , when you live in the diaspora, you feel the love and bond.
Thank you for watching and yes it might be ridiculous but that’s how some people feel and it’s always good to talk and get a understanding why people feel the way they feel
They call us small island.
Sorry if that offends you being called small island. It’s not being disrespectful. It’s just the way it is !!!one love same way 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yea that’s how we spoke back in the days . It wasn’t about disrespect , we called all Caribbean islands small islands including Cuba 🇨🇺 that’s much bigger than Jamaica 🇯🇲 and we used to call Canada 🇨🇦 America 🇺🇸 and the UK foreign
Please stop interduce hate in Caribbean Island. You are looking for something to chat about. Zip it bro
I can tell you didn’t watch the video
@@carib21networkYou know exactly what you're trying to do
So stupid who made them West Indies Islands the Europeans 🇪🇺 😂😂😂😂😂
It’s not stupid what about the African union and the European Union?
And the problem with that? If they did not, I would not have been born in my beautiful island. I would not be a part of the Caribbean, with relatives from Barbaods and Tirnidad/Tobago. I, for one, am truly grateful for their having come to the Caribbean. I hate that there was slavery, but without it I would not exist in this form and this land, as a representative of all that went before.
Nobody hate nobody... That's crap. Ppl talking and saying that without any real evidence. Where is the proof though?. Caribbean church ..we married one another we dog out each other about who have better what.. that just us ,we laugh at one another accent ,but let an outsider say something about a Jamaican even if we just done cuss, one another .. yo better not !😂
🤣🤣🤣 so true
We cousins, don’t mess with us. Love our Caribbean community 100%.
@calairbrown9461 🫶🏾
Sir you need to stop with that kind of stuff.
Is more how people do things but every island is good in their own right i think at the time of Seaga and Manley their were a lot of negativity that came out of Jamaica and some islands take it seriously is not how big you are is who could accommodate every one view point
There some other islanders who don't like Jamaicans, but Jamaicans don't hate anyone.
I think Caribbean people are friendly to each other
The evidence says other wise. Go look at vloggers who go to the Caribbean and look in the comments 99% it's jamaicans talking greasy about people food and culture and bragging about themselves.
@@plenty3494 facts, all the time, it's been an eye opener.
If they do have hate.. its got to be individually ..am a Vincy and my bf is bajan.❤
Thank you for sharing 🇧🇧🇧🇧🇻🇨🇻🇨
I'm vincy british , in the past I had two fab Bajan girlfriends. However I ended up marrying a Guyanese bird.
not all of them, like Jamaican, it's about bad mind and popularity, cause Jamaica it's very popular
Very popular that's all you talk about still many of you don't want to live there.
🇧🇧🇧🇧🇹🇹🇹🇹🇯🇲🇯🇲
Not to be offending other Caribbean islands, but Jamaica is the most popular island in the Caribbean. Not to take from the other islands they’re absolutely beautiful as well but for some reason,most people know the name, JAMAICA. It’s not our fault. We didn’t do anything to cause this…..🤔 I feel like now with social media and just world changes. People are learning about the other Caribbean countries as well. I’m now seeing commercials for more Caribbean vacation destinations.
Never bajan love jamdown people you joking check the artis them everyone who perform here will say to you,na dem baǰan love we dem treet we good ,food, fun ,its trinidadian we just dont like us their say we think we smart,just that everytime their just cant trick us.
🇧🇧🇧🇧🇯🇲🇯🇲🇹🇹🇹🇹
Trust me Trinidadians never accused jamaicans of being smart😅😅😅 No one anywhere has ever done that.
That's like saying white people don't like black people, vs but they still integrate. Yes I have heard it all my life too, I've been asked that question by a Guyanese an Antiguan, never by Jamaican, but I tell them I do not know about that because I have nothing against anyone.🫢
Thank you for sharing 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇧🇧🇧🇧
This is utter nonsense. Why would even bring a topic like this ?
Because it’s a topic that people are talking about everyday so we have to talk about the history
The British chose Jamaican to help them help and and build many colonies in the Caribbean and south and central America, the British think that Jamaican is tough like white people, they also believe that Bahamian was tough like Jamaican people the British chose Jamaican and Bahamian to compete a lot of task, I found a book Authored by a American in the 1930s the Title say THE JOB THAT CAUSE GENERATION OF HATE, the book was about the building of the Panama canal ,the American hire 100,000 , Jamaican and 1000 Bahamian and zero Barbadian ,but later hire a lot of other Caribbean people,when Barbadian arrive in Panama they say Jamaican people there in charge the Jamaican was the foreman, supervisor ,teacher ,there was a communication problem ,with Spanish speaking people who speak Spanish so they hire a lot of Jamaican as teachers this make Jamaican rich, Barbadian and Trinidadisj start to get Jealous, the same thing happen England when the Barbadian arrived they saw Jamaican with good Jobs and they get very JELOUS of Jamaica,these things happen a long time ago today Generation finally known why Barbarian don't like Jamaican people.
I would have to take a look at that book. I know Jamaicans were used to build the Panama 🇵🇦 canal but it’s not because they were better it’s just because Jamaica had the largest population in the British Caribbean.
@carib21network Not so fast ! largest population don't have anything to do with this forget Panama canal ,also England after WW 2 the British only want Jamaican & Bahamian in England ,but later bring over every other Caribbean people, the American plan to build the Panama canal but they did not want to fail like the French so they do a study to find out why the french fail and the finding is. Because of tropical disease and inferior labourer, the British advise the American to Hire no nonsense labourer but the best was Jamaican and Bahamian that's why out of the 101,000 labourer they hire 100,000 was Jamaican,the Jamaican & Bahamian was very successful that prompt them to hire more CARIBBEAN people, you can find this unfo if you search real good.
Bajans built the Panama canal also. There are documentaries on that on utube with testimony from actual Bajans talking about their experience. Instead here we go with the jamaicans are the strongest and everyone in the Caribbean jealous wi rhetoric. This is exactly what we are talking about.
Lot of shit .
@@plenty3494 apparently they came from a different Africa, probably the one on mars.
Yes thay really hate jamaica
What makes you think they hate Jamaicans?
The truirh is Bajan hate Jamaican, I have heard this long time ago ,until the ,I found out that during the days when the Caribbean was trying to unite as union Barbados want the Headquarters to be in Bridgetown Barbados at that time JAMAICA was the Richest Caribbean Island that means that JAMAICA would have to give Barbados a lot of or most of the money JAMAICA withdrew from the union and ever since that Barbadian people think that Jamaican eat there white fowl and start Haitiing Jamaican people.
Thank you for watching but I think you got your information wrong. Jamaica 🇯🇲 was not the richest Caribbean island in 1958 that would have been Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 and that’s why the head office ended up in Port of Spain and the decision to give Barbados 🇧🇧 the first Prime Minister came from the British government and I don’t think you can say Bajans hate Jamaicans because of that because most people in the Caribbean don’t know the history about the West Indies federation.
😂😂
Trinidad Barbados and Trinidad they are bad mind against Jamaican that's all
You have nothing to badmind you about....30k of you flee and runaway to our country. We don't go to Jamaica for nothing except for business and to buy your airline.
