Guyanese must cease this nonsense that "we all got on before Burnham and Cheddi". I am old enough to know when a man like me would have only worked at Fogarty's, Bookers offices in GT, or in a bank as a watch man. Do you think that blacks liked that? No they didn't. And this is why they were determined to ensure that they had control when independence came.
Carib,
I was able to find some old British Guiana documents from the 1800's and first half of 1900's, which i am reading, i am looking for the conflicts between the people you are mentioning, currently i can't find any serious distrust.
Bai, Cribby is always making stuff up.
