What are your views on the relationship between Guyanese Indians and Indians from India? 

* What has been your personal experience? 

* Is the relationship good, bad or indifferent?

* Do the two groups mix, date and intermarry at all?

* Do they share in worship, weddings, festivals etc.? 

* What about in the workplace?

* In the future, will the gap between these two groups converge or get wider?

Over to you...

Funny you should bring this up. I had this conversation yesterday with and Indian girl who is actually half Punjabi and half Italian. You have asked some valid questions. Things have changed since I came here in 1983. Back in Guyana we considered ourselves Indian. When I came here, the Indians here made the distinction for us. We were not Indian because we didn't speak Hindi or had different customs, we were Guyanese. From a personal point of view, Indians from India believe, and I am generalizing here, Guyanese are lower than they are. I don't know if this stems from the fact that our forefathers came from a poor part of India. I dated a Punjabi girl back in college and almost got involved with another except for the fact that I was muslim not that I wasn't Indian and her parents would never accept me. I work with many Indians and for the most part there is no distinction. Strange enough, the Pakistanis tend to be more clannish. As for the future, I believe and have faith that eventually intelligence will prevail over all prejudices.

Guyanese are Indians, many look like the ppl of South India, Bihar and Bengal. We are displaced from our caste and region. Suh, we are Indians, beloging to the entire geography.

Punjabies do not look anything like the hundreds of millions of the others within the Brahmaputra and the Ganges. They are Punjabies, either a Sikh Punjabi or a Hindu Punjabi.

As for South India, the ppl are not Indians, they are Tamils and the many other names they associate with.

Biharies are from BIhar. Bengalies are from Bengal. And on and on. 

Gujaraties doan think of India and likewise the ppl of Delhi. The ones I deal with.

Films are not Indian films, to us they are. The catogories are Hindi films and the other languages.

Are Afros from Guyana and West Indies similar to Afros from West Africa ?

 

Correct, the afros from africa don't share much in common with guyanese afros except when burnham brought back dashiki in style. I heard that even lilmohan and djangy dress up in dashiki to appease their paymasters.

Its ok except the motives were for more sinister motives, placating pnc bosses for favors aka free melanzana. Never wore any costume at any gravesite, the man that you fellows posting his picture wildly should sue yall rass for defamation of character. Moderators are already aware from the deleted thread, second offence will surely bite yuh bt good and prappa.

Don't be so sure that your identity is secure. There are ways of finding out who you are and let the chips fall where they may.
