The same that loads of PY goons did to black women all over coastal Guyana.

Now I am called a racist when I draw attention to the FACT that it was not only blacks or the PNC that was involved in violence in the 60s.

Indians and the PYO were also very involved in violence against bkacks.  But you see in RACIST GUYANA it is RACIST when a black Guyanese points this fact out.

You can call me a racist all you want but I will NOT sit silent while people like YOU lambaste blacks for being the ONLY racists in Guyana!

 TK and GR can do as they wish. What I will say is that the prospects of a APNU victory is remote so these guys were clearly not looking for soup.

Don't you think that it is arrogant for a party which commands only 10% of the votes to announce that they should LEAD Guyana?

Let the AFC go out and become the party with the largest, or the second largest votes, and then they can scream that they ought to lead an alliance with those who wish to join it.

Better yet.  Let the AFC force a discussion of how the constitution should be changed to reflect the real needs of Guyana, allowing pre and post election alliances and strengthening our local governance.

Instead the AFC woos only 10% of the vote, but yet feels that they ought to crown themselves KING!

Are they mad?  Or do they simply not understand how democracy works!

Listen Ramjattan and Nagamootoo might think that they were past over and less deserving people were given leadership positions in the PPP.  But that is not the concern of Guyanese people.  If they wish to lead they will have to EARN that right!

And Ramjattan of all people shouldn't talk because he couldn't deliver any votes in 2006 and it was Nagamootoo who delivered them in 2011, but not enough to be anything other than a minor party!

CaribJ how yuh doing bro?

By focusing on the Indian vote, and this has been said by many, and yet not denied by Nagamootoo how is the AFC communicating that they are above race politics in Guyana? 

Why didn't Nagamootoo expose himself to Afro Guyanese, who know that he was in the PPP and said NOTHING about anti black racism from the PPP, and in fact DENIED that it existed when he was in the PPP.......so he will need to earn their trust.

But his focus is on Indian votes.  The PPP is upset and APNU is deliriously happy that they don't have to contend with the formidable Hughes, who would be a serious threat to them, were he the presidential candidate.

At this point I don't think that the AFC is any more qualified to speak on the role of race in Guyana politics, any more than are the PPP and APNU. 

If Nagamootoo was a transformative leader who could have used the protest in G/town as a chance to raise the debate.  To show blacks that he isn't afraid to speak in front of them, even though he knows that they prefer Hughes.  To show Indians that he isn't afraid of the racist lies that the PPP peddles, and that they ought to rise above that too.

But he didn't, so please don't pretend as if the AFC is any less led by the role of race in Guyanese politics than is the PPP and APNU.

Now do you have a problem with that statement, or do you rather not to discuss the topic so that the broad based EXCLUSION of blacks in the PRIVATE sector can continue?
