Most are Afros once again, 10 Afros and 1 Portuguese. And you people still claiming that Indos are not marginalized in Guyana, even by the British?
Well according to you Indians are all wealthy so why do they need scholarships? Only those blacks, whose parents can only sell plantain chips so are dirt poor, should get them.
Druggie here is the deal. The British and the Americans saw all of those Indians heading just about everything during the PPP era so decided to give blacks a chance to catch up.
You know you all will enslave every black and toss them out of every leadership slot when your hero Jagdeo takes over again in 2020. He is presently taking lessons from the white supremacists so Indo supremacy will return then.
As I mentioned previously, the British and Americans are on a guilt trip. They will award scholarships to Blacks out of guilt for their enslavement and maltreatment even today. I hope that the Blacks will use these opportunities wisely and uplift themselves and successive generations.
The point I want to make is these Black awardees are not there due to merit but rather entitlement.
If your ancestors were treated they way theirs were, I am sure you would want some kind of reparation....live and let live
If their ancestors suffered, why give the current blacks reparation? They did not suffer. They should thank their forefathers for enduring all the hardships in America to make their descendants happy. Their forefathers did not die to give their descendants entitlements for the rest of their generational lives. I always thank my dalit forefathers and don't expect a handout.
you get a hand out in North America because of black struggle for freedom...if blacks did not exist here, you and your fellow dalits will sit at the back of the bus because of your desire not to fight the system
I never asked or was given a handout. I do not use the public transit system. In Guyana coolies are treated like the blacks at the back of the bus. Please keep in mind, blacks alone did not fight for freedom. If it were left to the blacks alone, they would still be treated as slaves. Think before you make such irresponsible statements.
The fact that you are here is a result of the fight by blacks for freedom.
Blacks may not have been alone in the fight, but they at the forefront...they shed plenty blood...you should look at the Nat Turner flick on Netflix
