The fact that people from mainly the English speaking Caribbean have not been even counted/included in any as yet is really appalling.Estimates have it that there are over five million of these people living in the United States. In addition to this these caribbean residents continue to make invaluable contributions to all facets of the american society. Why are they not listed as a separate category on the census forms. Are we supposed to fulfil a set of 'unknown' criteria in order to be counted?I hate to think that this is a deliberate attempt by specific group or individuals to continue to marginal the contributions being made by Caribbean Americans.
This is an outrage and needs to be addressed by Caribbean american politians and other influencial decision makersat the highest level. We must be counted now.
