FITUG statement that care-givers not workers caused hurt and anger

Dear Editor,
Red Thread and Red Thread network Guyanese Women Across Race are very hurt and angry about the statement made by FITUG that we are not workers therefore we were not eligible to take part in the May Day march.

First of all we want to make it clear that we took part in the May Day march before in 2005. So this year was not our first time and we were not invited to either of the two marches.
