Well, I was born in the Caribbean and much of my family is actually culturally Caribbean, and I much disagree with that.
The African-American does not eat Caribbean food; he does not listen to Caribbean music; he does not practice Caribbean traditional festivals, does not dress in Caribbean clothes.
I definitely feel that you draw this association purely because you think of Caribbeans as dark-skinned; it is a very different culture.
The African-American in general eats Anglo-Saxon food; he listens to Anglo-Saxon music; he celebrates Christmas and Easter; and he dresses in Anglo-Saxon clothing.
