prefect, you are absolutely right! A caribbean person can be of any ancestry, including east indian and amerindian. A large percentage of the population of Trinidad, as an example, is of east indian ancestry. Additionally, there are many Trinidadians that are of Venezuelan ancestry (which can be african, european, or amerindian). There are more than a few Trinidadians who are of chinese, arab, or british ancestry. And, of course, there are many who are of african ancestry. The person that the OP refers to could be any of the above - or a combination thereof.
I, too, agree that this should not be a concern for the OP.
