ABSTRACT
Stereotyping characteristics of island people are well known throughout the Caribbean region. These labels often narrated in everyday humor have some hidden truths. In Jamaica, for example there is the belief that the population is homophobic. In Barbados, there is a perception that the native population is xenophobic, with a dislike for everyone not Bajan, with an exception for those with a lighter shade of black. In Trinidad, the population has been dubbed as having a carnival mentality where individuals have a very slack, laid back or dont give a damn attitude towards work. It is thought that this non-stop party mentality is continuous throughout the year with little commitment to hard work or industry.
