Afro-Caribbean racial or ethnic group in Caribbean with African ancestry

Afro-Caribbean is the shorten ethnicity term of African-Caribbean which refers to the ethnicity and cultural heritage of Caribbean people whose ancestors were taken from Africa via the trans-Atlantic slave trade to the Caribbean Islands between the 15th & 19th century to work primarily on various sugar plantations and in domestic households. Other names for the ethnic group include, Black Caribbean, Afro-West Indian, Black West Indian or Afro-Antillean. The term was not used by West Indians themselves but was first coined by Americans in the late 1960s. This points to a controversial turn. This is because West Indian is the official term used by those from that region, and the rest of the world. The name West Indian was first used by Christopher Columbus, to describe the inhabitants that he found. Columbus was originally attempting to reach the country of India by heading west instead of heading east. Subsequently, as a result of the days of Empire, each group of colonies were given a specific description. For example, those living in the British Empire were called British West Indian. Therefore it was natural to conclude that French West Indians and Dutch West Indians, were all part of those self named empires. The term West Indian includes all of those who are born in the region, regardless of skin colour. Historically speaking, West Indian is the correct term used and accepted by those in the region and the rest of the world.
