I guess anywhere and everywhere Jamaican(s), Cuban(s), and/or Hispanolan(s) (along with certain others) descendants with brown skin in their genes are living....And that can be all over the world but is much likely in more abundant populations near their home-lands or, obviously, in certain economic zones or locations of specific importance. For example, Dominicans in the economic areas of California...even though California's so far away...(in comparison to my home in Broward, South Florida) (I'm Hispanolan by the way - a brown-skinned Haitian) (who doesn't get along with an uneducated brown 'African' parent who denies Taino is her people).
