Absolutely incorrect.
Jagan said these words in November,1996.
"Because we know Black people are at the lowest scale of the social ladder"
Blacks in the UK weren't beneath the Indians who were there at the time. To the British they were both "black".
The issue was about black vs. Indian, not black vs. white so I don't see how people could think that Cheddi referred to the USA.
Freudian slip from his mouth reflecting the known fact that many/most Guyanese Indians view blacks as being inferior to them. Cheddi apparently at a deep level shares this view.
When D2 said this about Indians you all screamed that he was a anti Indian racist, despite being mainly Indian identified.
