If Guyana cannot confront people like Ryhaan Shah and Ravi Dev, it will explode
Mar 07, 2017 Features / Columnists, Freddie Kissoon
Guyana is seeing dangerous waters coming right onto its doorsteps but if it doesn’t act, it will face horrible consequences. A group named the Guyana Indian Indentureship Abolition Association (GIIAA), founded by some of the worst rabid minds existing in this world and funded by some businessmen who accumulated vast wealth from Bharrat Jagdeo’s oligarchic rule, put on a presentation at the National Cultural Centre to commemorate the hundred years of the abolition of indentureship last Friday.
Some of the presenters were the usual suspects – people who ideologically believe in ethnic superiority in Guyana and people who see the fall of the PPP in May 2015 as a defeat for the permanent rule of the PPP and the collapse of a labyrinthine, ethnic web of money, politics and power that characterized Guyana under the domination of Jagdeo from 1999 to 2015.

Trump’s Immigration Order Creates Fear – By Dr. Dhanpaul Narine
Trump’s Immigration Order Creates Fear
By Dr. Dhanpaul Narine
Dr. Dhanpaul Narine
You can see the fear in the eyes of the people. It was a pleasant day in South-East Queens but Liberty Avenue looked like a barren desert. Normally, this strip with its business would attract hundreds but today the people were taking no chances. The mere mention of the word ICE was enough to drive people in the underground.
The man from the barbershop complained of poor business; the roti shops were empty and those West Indian stores stopped playing the music. What’s the point, they argued? People were not buying. They were staying home. But it’s not only about business. Continue reading →
