The first time I would see Blairmont Senoir Staff compound I knew that is the world to which I belong.
I aspired.
American films even made me hunger more.
And the British Establishment in British Guiana made that aspiration possible. They paid me to learn. I used that money to dress well, Classic shoes on my feet and Brilliantine on hair, dacron pants and tyrelline shirt.
My appearance opened big doors which opened into smaller doors. I gat a Canadian Visa at a young age to the Whiteman's world. I aspired to the Land of Plenty.
