History buffs

Citizen 10/12/2211:23 PM

Do we have any Guyana history buffs here? I am interested in the beginnings/formation and evolution of the country.

DanielP My wife and I wrote a book about the Guyanese independence movement, focusing in particular on the role of Brindley Benn and his family, so it is part biography, part history. We looked at the British efforts to suppress the independence movement, including the use of their patented "divide and rule" tactic of seeking out, or creating, an ethnic conflict which they could exploit. They did this famously in India, but also in Sudan, Kenya, and many other nations including Guyana. In the case... [ more ]

Mitwah and the Caribs moved to T&T and created the Carib beer and the Arawaks stayed and built the Arawak hotel. [ more ]

Demerara_Guy The beginning of Guyana has a very long historical period .... dating back to about 35,000 years ago. History indicated that the first inhabitants travelled from the northern part of Asia over to the Alaska area and over time travelled from the Northern part of America to the Southern part of South America. History states that the original inhabitants were the Carib and Arawak tribes. [ more ]

Demerara_Guy Developments of projects always have effects on neighbouring areas, settlements and indeed people. The objects are to mitigate the effects while pursuing the developments of the projects for the benefit of society. There are Hydroelectric Power Projects in Canada, US_of_A, and other places which are developed in areas occupied by Indigenous peoples. [ more ]

Former Member Your field might be Electronics, jango, but these criminals control the electricity in my home! The Hydro know nothing and can do nothing about this.

Former Member Here's something else for those who laugh at claims of aliens! For years, I couldn't understand how, regardless of where I used a phone, whether my own or someone else's, wherever, my conversation was being listened to!
