Well in the Caribbean, the Africans mixed with American Indians called "Amerindians", in all of the islands of the Caribbean. For example, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Guyana, Trinidad and Haiti.

However, people stereotype only the Spanish islands to be mixed because most of the populations are lighter skinned (ie. Puerto Rico, Cuba). However, the British and French (ie. Haiti, Guyana, Trinidad and Jamaica) occupied islands highly mixed with indigenous Amerindians also.

This phenomenon created a huge amount of Afro-Amerindian, slanted eye Caribbean people.

As a Caucasian why were both my daughters born with brown eyes?

You or the father could have the dominant brown eye trait in your genes passed down from generations that have had brown eyes in the family, thus passing the trait on to your daughters. Being Caucasian doesn't make a difference because the trait for brown eyes is found in every race.The key word in the question is "born". Everyone knows that caucasians can have brown eyes. But I was told by my ob/gyn that they are not brown at birth, but my daughter's were.
