Some of us really have 'race on the brain' - to the point of being an obsession and fixation. That's not healthy.
Adios amigos.

Given that the BGEIA set in place a mentality that continues TODAY with the PPP then it is very much ON TOPIC!

Every aspect of Guyana is about RACE and one cannot understand Guyana unless one deals with RACE. Guyana is where it is because of race. And yes the very behavior of the PPP is because of RACE.

After the elections the PPP screamed "we gun tek back Guyana for us". He described "us" as rural Indians. After the LGE he boasted about how well he did in majority Indian areas.

So yes the premise of ethnic competition, which was STARTED by the BGEIA exists until today, Sept 20th, 2018.

That is unless one can find some evidence that the PPP seriously tried to transform its self into a truly national party, and not one merely concerned with tribal interests.
