I am talking about 70's early 80's with no concern or knowledge of the 60's. You believe that only 60's events fostered distrust? You are wrong. Even in the 90's when PPP won elections, Blacks rioted and Indians once again were the victims of their frustration of losing power. Then the mo fiah slow fiah era initiated by Hoyte ensued where Indians were again targeted for harassment and brutality.
2015 is the first time in the last 25 years where the losing side did not resort to violence and wrecking havoc on the Guyanese people. For 25 years prior to 1992, the PNC fostered an environment where non-PNC supporters felt scared or threatened to even peacefully protest against the PNC.
I grew up in the 60s in Skeldon and saw how the Indians were scared of the blacks. Why? Because they were nice people?
What's the percentage of blacks in Skeldon.
Incidentally if this percentage is small, then it makes blacks in Skeldon look worse.
I don't think it is 25%. During my school days, I had no more than 1 or 2 black kids in my class of 20 or 30 kids.
