Racism existed in the 1950s and continued up to today.

Viper, what can we do? You seem concerned, what have you done about it?

The way I see it. We were ruled by Whitey, things were ok at the time but it was said the white man sold what we produced, gold, bauxite etc and gave (some of us) a somewhat comfortable lifestyle with whatever meager "lef lef" we were offered.

When Guyana attained Independence it was thought with whitey gone Guyanese would finally reap all that they sowed...so far they seem to have sown disharmony, racism and  nuf nuf  crooks.

What I find real strange about all this is the fact that I have seen all races stand together, work together, play together but somewhere down the line racism rears its ugly head and I've always asked myself, "by whom?"

I went to school in an area known as Warlock, (East Ruimveldt) a rough tarass neighbourhood and I saw some of my relatives (Indos) and others get along just fine with the blacks there with no problem. In my school I was called Tarzan I was the only Portuguese there and I never felt any different to my school mates, it was there I learned tolerance and emphaty.

This racism and hooliganism is always carried out by small groups (no different to the ignorance being done by trump and his backward redneck group) and it would be great to see all races work together, if not for themselves at least for the young ones left behind.

If GNI had been around for 20 years, has there been a day that its members haven't discuss racism? The members who have been with GNI from inception would know that racism is the most discussed topic on GNI. So, what's that tell you? Of course, you wouldn't deny that people who died from heart disease and another sickness, but you denied racism while you discussing it. Racism in Guyana is as Coolie and Black and the government is not going to do anything about it.

I chose to come here by the force of habit, but every time I signed on it's the same thing repeating over and over and no one would make a personal effort to change the things that matter most to them. Go figure!

Yaaawn... Same ******* bullshit day in an day out. This topic has been discussed so many times. Can u find something important to do?

If you had something better to do you wouldn't have to keep stalking me. It seems like you short of friends. You are the person that keeps posters away from GNI and Django is in denial that his forums are been disgraced by a few like you. You are not doing me harm. I don't give a shit if you think you know me because I don't care for you and your comments.

Guyana and it's diaspora have some seriously racist West African black Guyanese that hate koolie. It also got some Jaganite koolie who love to crabdog hate other Koolies.

You all don't speak from your hearts when speaking about racism fearing you might be declared  a racist.  If an Indian hurt a black it is racism. If a Black hurt and Indian it's NOT racism.  See the racism there?

Yep, it's coming from you

You are overworking your heart. Try using your brains next time.

I see no point in arguing about racism in Guyana if you are not living there. If you have an issue, don't complain about it. Do something about it.  Go back to Guyana and fight for equality.

Also the most racists bigots are the top 12 in the PPP/C. Racism is there to stay.

Talk is cheap, the same way many heard the PPP stole and NOT ONE gets charged much less convicted. Racism UGLY HEAD WAS ON DISPLAY, ON PAPER AND CAME OUT THE MOUTHS OF THE PNC FOR 5 LONG MONTHS. aPPARENTLY MANY WERE NOT PAYING ATTENTION OR CAPABLE OF UNDERSTANDING.
