what you want me to do . . . invent what is not there?

What gets addressed on GNI is mostly about what goes on in Guyana. But you don't seem to want to deal with the racial tendencies that exist in both communities in Guyana. GNI's membership is primarily of Indian descent so one would reasonably expect comment from an Indian viewpoint. Perhaps you are not well placed on GNI as you may be of better value dealing with similar tendencies on the other side. Unless you are suggesting they don't exist.

sir, your premise is this:

that is NONSENSE!

there is nothing to "admonish" or dignify with further comment

Why do you say it is nonsense? Show evidence to support your refutation. When Trotman was the Presidential candidate for the AFC in 2006, many blacks voted for the AFC. When Ramjattan became the Presidential candidate in 2011, many of those same blacks did not vote for the AFC. I gave the AFC example because it clearly demonstrates the tribalism in black voting tendencies. Now extrapolate that tendency to the whole country and you see how blacks vote tribally for the PNC even though doing so does not improve their welfare.

The original argument was about racism and as much as there is racial tendencies in both Indian and black Guyanese communities, you are an apparent defender of blacks is showing gross bias by leaving your own base and criticizing the other camp.

Indeed, a small percentage of the Afro-Guyanese vote crossed over to the AFC when Rafael Trotman was the Presidential candidate, most Indians stayed home with the PPP

when Khemraj Ramjattan was the Presidential candidate, a small percentage of the Indo-Guyanese vote crossed over to the AFC, most Afro-Guyanese stayed home with the PNC

what's your stupid point again?

oh wait . . . you did say dem tribal Blacks always vote PNC "against their own welfare"

not like all dem non-tribal Indians who "cross the [a]isle and vote PNC", eh?

AFC had their core Indian support in 2006 which increased with the addition of Nagamootoo to the party. The clear contrast was about the black approach to the AFC when Trotman was the Presidential candidate and when Ramjattan was. AFC's objective was the same in 2006 as it was in 2011. The major difference was the Presidential candidate and the black community response to that difference. But you don't seen to see any racial tendencies there.

But seriously what’s going on here, is Guyana short of Indian women  . As they say, a picture tells  a thousand words.

I didn’t recall seeing majority of Indian women dress in African dress at emancipation day.

Indians aren't in a habit of participating in non Indo events.  Any event which isn't connected to Indians or to the PPP is a non Indo event. 

So commemorating Guyana's 50 the anniversary of independence wasn't an event that they were involved with, either in Guyana or among Guyanese communities outside of Guyana.

Afro Guyanese more willingly embrace the fact that Guyana is multi cultural and multi ethnic, and many in fact derive pride of this. 

Not so most Indo Guyanese. To many Guyana is merely a piece of dirt upon which they were born.

Stormborn posted:

In fact the British were adamant that all indentures had a background in agriculture and were aggressive in preventing Brahmins and other high caste people from entering their sugar producing colonies in the Caribbean, and in the Indian and Pacific Oceans.  They didn't want to allow those who had the potential to lead the indentures to enter these colonies.

ksazma posted:

 

My initial comment pertained to the racial realities in Guyana.

The racial reality in Guyana is that a fundamental aspect of British colonial rule was to foster divisiveness in their colonies.  This is why a tiny nation, smaller than most US states, was able to rule the world by the end of the 19th century.

So the Afro and Indo masses were set against each other,  Both exploited hungry and desperate.  So perfect fodder for use to undermine the efforts of the other to advance.

Independence and both Afro and Indo elites wanted the spoils for themselves, so they exploited the ethnic insecurities of the two major ethnic groups.

After independence a pattern of ethnic patronage developed where BOTH parties were guilty.  To disguise this crumbs were handed over to ethnic tokens.

Unless you address these facts you do NOT address racial reality in Guyana.  BOTH ethnic groups exhibit insecurity about how they stand in Guyana, and how they will be treated should the other group attain power.

60 years after self rule each group can point out real attempts by the governing ethnic party to exclude.  They can cite the PPP between 1957 and 1964.  They can cite the PNC between 1966 and 1992. They can cite the PPP between 1992 and 2015.  No doubt they can cite the behavior of APNU since 2015.

It is those who are locked in THEIR OWN RACISM who are blind to these facts and who wish to pretend as if only the Indian suffered and only the black perpetrated racism. BOTH suffered and BOTH perpetrated this behavior.  My FIRST post on GNI 16 years ago I said that.

AFC had their core Indian support in 2006

The AFC in 2006 was a middle class urban party.  The Indian support that it had, minimal, were from those who long ago abandoned the PPP.  The ones who people like you will deride as "town coolie".  Some might have been descendants of the Indians who voted UF in 1964.

In 2015 the support which Nagamootoo got in 2011 fled back to the PPP.  I suggest that you compare the votes for Region 6 in 2011 and in 2015  You will see a MASSIVE swing to the PPP.  This even as the population has declined the most rapidly of any region in Guyana.

The rural Indian remains the "property" of the PPP.  The PNC doesn't have the same hold on the African vote.  In 2006 many refused to vote as they were disgusted with Corbin. The AFC did NOT attract the grass roots African vote in 2006 as they were then derided as the "potagee and red man party". The AFC attracted an urban cross ethnic middle class vote in that year.  The only person within the AFC who has a bedrock of support from grass roots Africans is Nigel Hughes.

The reality is that the rural Indian is unable to vote for someone unless its an American white woman or a Guyanese Indian.  In 2011 its an accepted fact that Roopnarine was credited in generating excitement among the urban working class blacks in G/T.  This because Granger lacks charisma and is too "middle class" in his demeanor.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. If the Indians don't want to participate, and the other races dress like Indians, then they like our culture and are showing it, so why fret?

Its not that they like your culture.  Its that they are mature enough to know that in a multi cultural society ALL groups need to be recognized.

Pity that many rural Indians don't seem to understand this and only participate when their lords and masters, the PPP, command that they do.

Many blacks have acknowledged this racism.  None other than people like Rodney, David Hinds, Andaiye and even Raphael Trotman.   They haven't been persecuted and chastised as traitors.

Those Indians who have discussed Indian racism have been tarred feathered and banished.

At what point did Indians cross over and vote PNC.  That is apart from a small brand of soup lickers during the Burnham era.

FACT in 1953 the VAST MAJORITY of blacks voted for the PPP, headed by an Indian, even though a party of black/mixed people, headed by John Carter, existed. 

I will await with anticipation for you to discuss when a large majority of Indians have ever voted for a party not headed by an Indian.
