We were taught that the Garifuna were a mixture of free Africans and Island Caribs from St. Vincent. They survived multiple deportations and massacres in the Eastern Caribbean by hands of the Europeans. There were also deportations from Dominica, St. Kitts, and Antigua. They fled to central America (Belize, Guatemala, and Honduras) afterwards.
