On this day we must remember the Enmore Martyrs

Dear Editor,
Whether Enmore factory stands or not, sugar remains a productive part of For the trade union community this day must find us engaging in serious introspection as to state of the working class. The premature deaths of Lallabaggie, Dookie, Rambarran, Harry and Pooran because they refused to relent or give in to the employer and colonial authority stomping on their inalienable rights must not only be observed but see reinforcement of commitment of what’s required of us.

The 1948 incident intensified the people’s struggle for self-determination, given it was felt when we take charge of our destiny, respect and dignity for all would be assured. The attainment of self-government must not now find us thinking we are subservient to any group or individual nor can our welfare only be assured by turning a blind eye to wrongs.
