Guyana has at several periods had all the necessary ingredients for a Revolution but yet this has never occurred.
What have we lacked that other nations and peoples seem to possess?
black people is cowards
I friend, formerly in the state department and now a professor on Latin American economics with an acute understanding told me it is our British conditioning. He thinks we are not risk takers and second and third guess everything. Change for us he said will not come easy and if it does come it will be spontaneous and extremely violent and not because of us but because some foreign agency needs us to do it. We have to be pushed.
It is not a black and and Indian problem. Black people at least give us a democratic revolution by rejecting burnham. Many even embraced Chedi. What we have today is despotism by the hungry belly few suddenly having access to foods of all sort. They will gorge themselves beyond their fill to point of starving others and still we will wait. They will get destroyed completely if his theory holds only if others want it so. Meanwhile we thread water. The rise of Chinese influence may be that push.
