What is white barbadian?

White Barbadians refer to people of European or Caucasian descent who live in Barbados. They make up about 4% of the island's population. Most white Barbadians are descendants of English, Scottish, Irish, or Welsh settlers who arrived in Barbados during the 17th century.

They have played a significant role in the island's history, particularly in the areas of commerce, politics, and culture. The white Barbadian community has a distinct culture that is influenced by British traditions, but has also been shaped by the island's unique history and Afro-Caribbean culture.

In recent years, there has been a growing trend of white Barbadians identifying as Bajan rather than British or European, emphasizing the island's diversity and inclusive national identity. Like all Barbadians, white Barbadians share a love for cricket, soca, and rum, and enjoy the laid-back island lifestyle.
