The Vibrant Celebration of Garifuna Culture in St. Vincent

Garifuna people are celebrated on this date in 1700. They are African and indigenous people who originally lived on the Caribbean Island of Saint Vincent and speak Garifuna, an Arawakan language. The Garifuna are the descendants of indigenous Arawak, Kalinago (Island Carib), and Afro-Caribbean people. The founding population of the Central American diaspora, estimated at 2,500 to 5,000 persons, were transplanted to the Central American coast from the Commonwealth Caribbean Island of Saint Vincent. Garifuna communities still live in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and abroad, including Garifuna Americans. The exonyms Caribs, Black Caribs, and Island Caribs historically knew the Garifuna. Europeans began to use the term Black Caribs in the 17th century.
