Didn't Jagdeo use Coolie in one of his speeches?

Guyana full of pretentious people

You dont get it!!  I am not sure you will.

He is the slave master, so can use this.  Its when others use it then PPP slaves PRETEND to be offended.

 

This is just more of the racist card played by the "coolie party".

 

We are waiting for proof that the APNU/AFC is allowing non Indian heads to keep their jobs, and only dismissing Indians.  The PPP obviously has this.

You got it so much you gat the runs.

Dope head, this Topic is not for SHIT HEADS.  Come back later.

I will not beat around the bush, I felt that if Jagdeo used that word then, he was wrong, but that does not give Nagamootoo the right to use the word, yes he can use the word, but he is wrong to do so, as another word could have sufficed.

Indo Guyanese are appalled at being referred to, with that word, in this age and time, using that word shows the immaturity of persons using it.

stop acting like a collie 

Correct. Using the C word to address an Indo Guyanese is the same as using a N word to address an Afro Guyanese.

shut up collie i hope this insult you

to all you stupid collie out these there is a guyanese boxer they call the collie bully he is in the USA training right now for a big fight i wonder how insult he feel by the way he give himself this name

Nagamootoo always presented an image of crassness and crudeness and even as he hurled accusations of the same at Jagdeo, his Neanderthal intonations and hate-contorted face made it clear he was projecting his tortured inner demons. Here in the 21st century, with the charges of ethnic and racial discriminations flying furiously in our country – and the same beamed in from the U.S. daily, – what kind of man would descend into such despicable gutter language? (Nagamotoo?)

Moses and Ramjattan join the ranks of the PNC and suddenly refused the recognize that they are Indians. Granger is a Guyanese who never claimed to be Indian, but he wasn't ashamed to wear African garb on emancipation day.

Coolies like riffraff and gang want us to follow the trends like them two shameless neemakarams.

If y'all like the jackass riding, be my guest.

Quote 'A man who could boast in the same hallowed halls of Parliament, that he yelled at his grandson, “shut yuh so-and-so mouth!!”. That’s who. A man who could gratuitously inform a New York audience that, honored by the Global Organization of People’s of Indian Origin, he told them, “I am not an Indian”.unquote

quote "And for a man with no self esteem, the salary discrepancy eats away at his mental equilibrium like a canker."unquote

Nagamootoo’s one sick dude! and anyone who thinks like him, is in his category.

what happen bro you did not get that job they promise u 

Moses and Ramjattan are ading the PNC to abused Indian and say that our own people are against us. No wonder they're afraid to call themselves Indian. They have to think and act black to retain their jobs.

Not looking for any job Bro, I am happy where I am, and no one promise me any job........In a few years will be back in Guyana, after retiring so have to put the pressure on these guys so that they can perform, in order to make Guyana a better place.

You are a hypocrite and a liar.  If Indians objected to the term, then why did  they vote for Jagdeo who referred to their party as a "coolie party"?

 

You are a PPP stooge.  At least be decent and admit this.

And when Jagdeo and Rohee used this same word to describe the party which well over 90% of the Indians voters supported you said NOTHING!

 

Chris Ram took offense and you called him self hating for hauling Jagdeo in front of the courts.

When are you going to comment on Riff's observation of Jagdeo using the said term?

Everyone is entitled to his opinion and I am entitled to mine too. Some people indeed regard coolie as a pejorative term. It is my prerogative to state unambiguously that I am a coolie and I love to be called a coolie. The dictionary defines coolie as an unskilled labourer hired for low or subsistence wages. That definition fits my Indian immigrant great grandparents perfectly, as well as my aja and my father. There is dignity in labour and, though unskilled, they earned an honest livelihood. As a tribute to them I wear my coolie badge with pride.

Let me point out in comparison that when I was growing up in the 1950s the Afro-Guyanese in my community resented being called blacks. They preferred the word negro. Then, in the 1960s someone in the USA [Stokely Carmichael?] started the BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL movement and Afro-Guyanese abandoned negro for black.

I am saying that COOLIE IS COOL for me. I admire that brilliant young lady Gauitra Bahadur who wrote a wonderful book titled COOLIE WOMAN.

YOU ARE  A HYPOCRITE.   So do you think it's OK for a Prime Minister to be so crude and rude?  You should be embarrassed by that remarks as you are one stupid coolie.

no one is questioning Moses being "crude and rude"

 

but y'all are bawling about something else!  . . . nah suh bai?

 

which brings me to the word "HYPOCRITE"

 

don't use it if u doan understand what it means . . . try Google, arite?

Absolute rubbish.  If I was black man I can use the N word.  So if I am Indian why can't I use the C word?

 

Moses was correct.

I agree. I don't feel offended. Jagdeo used it. Big deal. Alyo coolee raas come a merica and turn white man ova night.

To you, Indian is a dirty word.  You never cease to attack them any where in the world.    Tell me that you are not a racist.  It doesn't who I am. tell me who you are..

Rohee endorses Jagdeo statement that PPP is a ‘coolie people’ party

–    Says Afro Guyanese should welcome statement

 

General Secretary of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP), Clement Rohee, yesterday supported the statements made by his comrade, Bharrat Jagdeo, to the effect that the incumbent party is a “coolie people” party.

 

As he hosted the PPP’s weekly press conference at Freedom House Robb Street, Georgetown, Rohee said that he saw nothing wrong with former President Jagdeo’s allusion to the PPP as a coolie people party.

Jagdeo made this statement on Sunday when he spoke at the memorial service held in honour of former President and founder member of the PPP, the late Dr. Cheddi Jagan at Babu Jaan, Corentyne, Berbice. Jagdeo, who is known to speak rashly at this yearly forum, told thousands who gathered at the event that the “opposition” whispers to its supporters, “Let us throw out the coolie people.”

Jagdeo added that the opposition “consistently shouts about the racism of the PPP but they practice racism. They whisper campaigns. In the last elections they went to some of the Afro villages and beat some drums at six in the morning and say let us throw out these coolie people. Get up and go out and vote.”

Yesterday Rohee was questioned as to whether he supported the statements made by his comrade and he responded in the affirmative. Rohee said that PPP is indeed a “coolie people” party as it is “overwhelmingly supported by Indians.”

Asked if he considered the impact such a statement can have on PPP supporters who are of another race, Rohee said that he doesn’t see that any harm can be caused.

He even told media operatives that PPP supporters who are Afro-Guyanese should welcome the statement as it is forthright.

Chedi once once said that the PPP is not an Indian Party, if you want an Indian Party then find another one.   The PPP is the closest thing to an Indian Party with 48% being non Indian.  As opposed to the PNC with 5% being non black and the AFC with 90% being non Indian.

Cheddi is not around to verify what you are saying.

You lie!  Chedi is alive in the minds of Moses and Sase and Nadira Jagan. 

%'ages are irrelevant. It's a matter of perception. Rohee endorses Jagdeo statement that PPP is a ‘coolie people’ party

If Corbin can say that the PNC is for black  then Jagdeo should have the same right to say that. Rohee is mixed.  He gains nothing by endorsing Jagdeo. Caribj said that the PPP is for coolie only.  Nuff also said that.

Much ado about nothing. The bigger issue is when the Government will figure out how to effectively govern. All this nonsense about Coolie, tiefman, corruption means little to the Guyanese dinner table or the protection of their lives and properties.

How things are going, it seems that they are not going to be given a chance, if Moses and Ramjattan don't change their attitudes towards the PPP and Indians as a whole. These two are deliberately provoking the opposition Leader.  Both Moses and Ramjattan had wanted more from the PPP but got shafted, so in retaliation they joined the PNC. They accused the PPP of being what they were. I hope Lord Shiva can help Guyana.

a song, Coolie Boy.

 

a book, Coolie Woman.

The truth is that Moses wanted be to become President. This will never happen while he is with the PNC. Moses will always play second fiddle to Granger.

Don't worry Rama, even other Indos here think that you are a racist.

And who are these 48%.  Oh you mean the ones who you all nominated as your list, and then  you abandoned most of them?

 

Rohee and Jagdeo say the PPP is a "coolie party". You think that they are Gods so don't question them.

Another book, Coolie, by Mulk Raj Anand.

A Bollywood movie, Coolie starring Amitabh Bachchan who plays the role of Iqbal, a railway porter.

In India today, porters are called coolies by fellow Indians.

Neither the white man nor the black man invented the word coolie.

According to Wikipedia, "The origins of the word are uncertain but it is thought to have originated from the name of a Gujarati sect (the Kolī, who worked as day labourers) or perhaps from the Tamil word for a payment for work, kuli."
