There is notting Pointless about this article. the only thing thats pointless is you coming on here writing nonsense. don't make a fool out yourself, think before you write childish things like this.

Don't try to insult me. I was just saying that I don't see much point in this page as Jamaica is preponderantly composed of persons of African descent, so this majority of most of the time is just called Jamaican. That's why you hardly hear anyone say "Afro-Jamaican" (this article was actually the first time that I had seen the word used!), while it is much more common for people to say "[insert nationality] Jamaican" for persons not of African Descent.
