Dear Editor,
I urge all Guyanese to stand up for decency, truth, and integrity; to condemn the racism being practised covertly and overtly by the Opposition APNU+AFC politicians. They are now holding marches under the banner of allegedly being anti-racist and anti-discriminatory, but we know the truth.
The APNU/AFC politicians are trying to play with the emotions and postures of Guyanese. I urge Guyanese to listen to the tone of speeches given by the Opposition and look at the ethnic composition of the audience there. Listen to their comments made while they are not on the camera and are talking among themselves.
I believe the crowd present there at the march was duped into supporting the march because of the food, drinks, alcohol, and money offered as an enticement.
Also, I believe that the US officials are watching that Congressman and listening to his statements made at the march and rally. I am all for Congressmen supporting other groups and external affairs, but they must never be one-sided and opportunistic.
That Congressman never spoke to the Irfaan Ali Administration, nor did he research what platform he was standing to speak on. Had he done so, he would never have listened to Rickford Burke and the rest of them in the US about the mood of the people miles away in Guyana.
The truth is that the Guyana Government, as a policymaker, is not racist. The People’s Progressive Party/Civic is not racist. This is an inconvenient truth to those in the Opposition who want to fan the flames of racism and allegations of discrimination far and wide.
The Opposition politicians are the real racists, parading as patriots of virtue when they are like vampire bats. I say so because they are sucking the life blood out of Guyana with their talk about racism and discrimination.
Of importance is that they try to prosecute with threats of any kind if you are not willing to subscribe to their views about race.
Also, I say that the PPP Government is for all the people.
I know when the APNU+AFC Opposition are being truthful and honest; and they are not. They would not manage to fool Guyanese again, at least right-thinking Afro-Guyanese who live in Guyana.
Yours truly,
Suraj Singh
