"Out Of Many, One People": Blended People, Blended Ancestry, Blended History: The True History And Present Of Multiracial-Multiethnic-Multinational An

By Rosalia Isabella Belcher-LePrince

There are genetic-differences between Diaspora (from mostly Southern/Eastern Parishes) & those living-in-Jamaica (30% admixture). The "strange" reaction Diasporans encounter stems from a clash between US racial-binary & the racial fluidity of Jamaica. OUR ancestry is a representation of us. Geo-historical literacy gaps

Why Our Ancestry Seems "Strange"One-Drop Rule vs. Caribbean Admixture: U.S. operated under the "one-drop rule," which forced people to identify with one race. Our history Arawakan/Cariban resilience, Spanish/British colonization, Spanish/British/Dutch slave-trades & Asian indentureship] has long fostered a "browning" identity as its own valid categoryUnique Regional Blueprints: Specific "genetic footprint" (Yamaye, Yamaye-Lokono-Kalinago, Mayan, Mayangna, Woolwa ....

The average Jamaican-Creole Autosomal-DNA features "Northern South-American"/"Yucat n", Iberian/Sephardi, "Scandinavian", "Celtic & Gaelic", German, "Central-Nigerian", "Nigerian-Woodlands", "Ivorian/Ghanian", "Yorubaland", "North-Central Nigeria", "East-Bantu"/"Austronesian", "North-Indian"/"South-Indian", "Southern-Chinese & Taiwanese" components"Stereotype Gap" Global media often reduces Jamaica to a single image: a Black-Rastafarian. The reality shatters that oversimplified stereotype, causing confusion/skepticism from those who view us through narrow lensThe Uniqueness of Our HeritageSouth-Asians: 1838-1917, British imported 40,000 Desi laborers from Hindi Belt (Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, Bengal) & Madras State (Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh). Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Punjab, Kashmir & Sindh too. Waves of migration. Coolie/"Dougla" identities. Esp. Eastern/Central ParishesEast-/Southeast-Asians: 1853/54-1879, British imported 19,000 Hong-Kong Hakka/Cantonese to Caribbean. Waves of Asian migration. "Chiney"/"Hapa" identities. Esp.
