Reply to "A new attitude among East Indians in Guyana"

The GDF is now branded as a racist organization by the OAS and Caricom. We must bring all non racist organization to force change. Carter must see this as a human rights issue. He should insist that the GDF be disbanded if it cannot balance the ethnic make up of the force. This is a critical need to move the debate of healing going forward. This army has not fought any successful foreign invasion. It was formed to control and punish opponents of the PNC. Rodney was a threat to Burnham and the PNC so he had to pay the ultimate price. Rodney wanted the GDF to have more diversity to it. He would have still be alive today if there wer more Indians in the force. A balance force is good for all the people. Indians will feel more secure to even to vote have a more balance force. We are not calling for a 99 % Indian force. All we is asking for is fairness. That is not an unrealistic expectation or change.
