Dear Editor,

As an Indian Guyanese I have nothing against Black Nationalism as long as Black Nationalism sticks to promoting African Awareness.

However, Black Nationalism in Guyana is not doing that and as such fails African Guyanese. What Black Nationalism is doing is to claim that Indian Guyanese are the ones that “marginalised” African Guyanese. And as such Black Nationalism is defining itself as “anything that is not Indian”.

In the end, Black Nationalism is going to fold in on itself as “marginalization”; having not been proven conclusively, this is just a feeling. So when this feeling is proved to be incorrect there is no real definition of Black Nationalism……
