Indo-Caribbean people or
Indo-Caribbeans are Caribbean people with roots in India or the Indian subcontinent. They are mostly descendants of the original indentured workers brought by the British, the Dutch and the French during colonial times. The antiquated term
East Indian is still used in the English-speaking Caribbean and by the Canadian mainstream media. They are sometimes simply called
Indian in the English-speaking Caribbean. Most Indo-Caribbean people live in English speaking Caribbean nations, Suriname and the Netherlands, as well as in the French overseas departments.
