Who represents the innocent Indo Guyanese who are sometimes beaten, raped and killed when the PNC protest?
Who represents the business men who suffer from arson and loss of business when the PNC protest? Who represents the Blacks that come to the defense of Indos when the PNC protest? The PNC seems to have its vociferous few in the media and the internet who make a lot of noise about the “causes†the PNC fights for. But who loses when the PNC decides to cause mayhem in Guyana – all of Guyana Who loses everytime the PNC continues its disrespect for the law and further enhance the breakdown of law and order in Guyana – all of Guyana. Like it or not Guyana is a democracy, with a democratic government. If the opposition wants a change in the constitution to represent the entire cross section of Guyanese then parliament is the place for that. To take to the streets for every frivolous claim, takes away form the purpose of a demonstration in a democracy and amounts to pure hooliganism. The PNC are not representing the people of Guyana, instead, they are representing the narrow and selfish interest of their leaders. The excuses of the leader of the PNC for their breaking of the law are the words of a school yard bully and a sinister liar. The PPP has many faults; not dealing with crime, an arrogant leader and members of parliament. They have been accused of corruption, however, no proof has yet been presented in a court of law to validate such claims, therefore, until such time that claim is moot. Since a large percentage of Guyanese feel alienated, what is the PPP doing to address that situation? At this time it seems that the people of Guyana do not have any true representation – Not from the PPP or PNC. However, like I stated earlier, Guyana is still a democracy and the time and place to make a change is at elections time. If the PNC is not happy with the constitution as is then take it to its constituents and then represent them in PARLIAMENT to bring about change. And most important; the rule of law must be maintained in Guyana |

The PNC is not representing the people well nor is the PPP. These Parties are anachronisms, throwbacks to a time when brutal oppression and racist agitation were successful tactical strategy to political ascendancy. Presently, you frame the debates precisely in their anachronistic jargon ie in black/ Indian terms and appealing to the politics of victimization as a medium of political expression. |

You know this "Innocent Indian" bit is old, racist and extremely divisive. NOW WHO COMES TO THE DEFENSE OF BLACK PEOPLE WHN THEY FACE DAILY RACISM FROM INDIANS?!!!!! Were the person attempting to be objective they would add all that. But as we see ethnocentricity (another word for clannish) is an integral part of the culture so it would never dream on thes efolks to understand that racism in Guyana isnt just about Indians suffering bat the hands of blacks. Blacks are also punished by Indians. |

As an Afroist I have to say that all races have to stop being ethnocentric. You all talking bout Indians and blacks all the time. How bout the other races?

You need to read the title of this thread. It referred to Guyanese lacking representation. So arent AfroGuyanese also deserving of reputation against systemic racism directed against them by the Indian elite? Clearly the PNC isnt providing it. Neither is the PPP. "Left out" is different from saying that "some people are going out of their way to exclude". Now you were quite explicit about the Indian issues. How come you couldnt be equally explicit about the black issues and the racism, real or perceived, that they feel they suffer? The PPP is equally divisive and racist when they scare Indians about the black bogeyman. And in what context do you condemn Indian racism? When people like ken and baseman get too extreme with their bigotry or systemic racist actions by the Indian elite against blacks. |

Last time I checked Blacks were Guyanese too. Any discussion with you is an exercise in futility. I will not be trapped into your argument of Indians vs Blacks. You are suffering from a major complex of “Whoa its meâ€. Get over your complex and do not try to turn every discussion into your “Clannish Indos†argument, or are you that one dimensional? Since one of your main arguments is “Indos are clannish†you are pretty much implying that the only Indo to be trusted is a dead Indo. And again I will state to you; I do not need to attack every person that makes a racist remark, they are doing a great job doing that to themselves, besides, I do have a life and do not spend it here on GNI; check the number of posts that I have for the years I have been a member. Now get a life. In any case I make my points and do not give a fudge what you think |

Specific references to problems faced by Indians. When I point out the black aspects you say its "woe is me". How come its not "woe is me" when you point out the problems that Indians have. Thanks for pointing out that in your head only Indo concerns need to be explicitly discussed. Your "valuable" time can only be spent explicitly discussing those issues. You see the only representation that blacks lack is when they come to the defense of Indians and arent protected. No explicit issues of their own. At least none that you care to spend your "valuable" time on. |

Hi bogeyman, did the PPP create the "scare" in Indians brought about by Lusignan and Bartica? Get some morals into your head and your statement. Stop living in your own make-believe world and assume you can make us believe your crap. Extreme racism is when the likes of you and other bros try to explain away the extreme racist acts like Lusignan and when you try to put a different face on the events of the early 60's. |
