The CIA released documents about how they actually funded a race war to prevent the unity of the two groups, along with the help of the British in Guyana. But we all bear responsibility for our own prejudice. It's up to the children to break the cycle of racism that was drilled into our parents and grandparents.
An an Indian from India I can tell you for a fact that we are racist. Not just to blacks but whites, asian and even against other Indians. The communities in India are so closely bonded that anyone even a little different like people living in rural and urban areas will feel like an outcast.
@@95luannaable India is not about color trust me my step brother is as dark as Africans no problem here people are actually community we like only families
I’m black and my family is Guyanese. Many of those Indo-Guyanese will talk down on black people and their skin is much darker than ours. Just look at the President of Guyana. If you looked at him from a distance you would think he was a black man.
I think it is because these were lower class Indians who were servants in Guyana. They are usually knows as the backwards Indians when meeting Indians from India. They mix sometimes with Black people and take offense being called Black. All the island people are usually louder and more abrasive, sometimes known as jungle people.
Terence, you're on point with this. I'm not asking why I already know why. I appreciate my FBA for all the things they ancestors has done to give us the opportunity to enjoy the luxury we now have, but they are deny the same privilege in some shape or form ie. Buying house,being promoted, starting business. FBA have to prove themselves All day long. All you non-FBA get it together don't come to America with the mindset that you're better. We all need to get on code and support our FBA in their fight for reparation and stop separating yourself from them. If you need a Ally in this country the FBA is where you need to be around. They know the oppressor secrets. My Afro Guyanese brothers and sisters have it the hardest. Who is fighting for them? Everyone looking at American to be the ambassador to fight against racism in guyana when it's ignored here. 2023 and I know that don't make a difference but we need to get on code and support each other around the diaspora. Can anyone tell me who is advocating for my brothers and sisters in guyana? I need more information. Instead of saying something, let us start doing something about this. This didn't start yesterday, this is history this been happening for before I was born. My GT ppl call out the racism when you see it, Put them on blast let them know this will no longer tolerated. Be the change you want to see. Let take a page out of the FBA community book and fight for our afro-guyanese in there struggle to be treated fairly.
I’m Guyanese. I can say that there are racists from both ethnicity. The previous president shared money and gave more privileges to the Africans (I heard). I wish everyone could live as one as stated in our motto “One People, One Nation, One Destiny. There are many from both ethnicities that have really good friendships, my family and friends are an example of that.
Most of the Indian where brought to the Caribbean as indentured servants after slavery was abolished. They were treated differently from slaves or former slaves. Servants not slaves.
You knos why? To breed distrust amongst former slaves and indentured slaves. Go look at mammals, esöecially monkeys enclosed in cages and see how they react to unfaie treatment. They can't stand when somebody else is treated better than them
Yeah many Desis feel superior to Sub Saharan Africans in The Caribbean for that main reason because Western Europeans showed them more favor likewise Sub Saharan Africans felt superior to the Amerindians because the Western Euros usually favored them yeah.
My supervisor is from Trinidad and he is of Indian descent. As a black American I experienced racism but the most racist thing I’ve ever heard came from my Trinidadian Indian supervisor. He also has issues with his Indian heritage, he said his ex wife was a WW but I met his daughters, not only do they look fully Indian, they said their mother is Indian with dark skin also. Now, the true insult to me as a black American is he benefits for all the Civil Rights laws that my ancestors fought and died for but has nothing but racist stereotypes about black ppl across the board.

this is interesting....now do you think Black people can be racist against Indians? Or are Black people immune from being racist and if they attack Asians, Indians, Hispanics, it's not because they are racist, it is because they are acting as individuals. If it is Black people act as individuals...then every group cannot be racist, just individuals.
I'm from guyana. My family was middle class and some relatives were upper middle class. That also plays a factor into the type of school you attend & peers you meet. Growing up, my bestfriend was Indian. We would go to each others houses, birthday parties etc. My other closest friends were also indo guyanese along with afro guyanese. We all had fun. I never experienced racism but heard stories as a teen of colorism among Indians. My first year at UG(university of guyana) i had an Indian friend who was telling me about her boyfriend that broke up with her because she was dark. His family didn't approve and wanted him to only date light skinned Indians. She was heart broken about it and i thought it was the craziest thing I've ever heard. She was from the "country" area where i think racism & colorism is more rampant. It's crazy because there are Indians that are darker than my entire family. They call them madras Indians.
Now this is something I'm 100% familiar with. My ex is Guyanese-Indian. I'm a brown skinned black man from NYC. The racism I got from her family while dating her was crazy. She was half black because her father was a Jamaican. I dealt with it for 7 years. Here I am with manners and respecting peoples homes while I barely got a hello and basic human interaction from them. The only ones I was cool with was her aunts because they were with black men. Ain't that some shit 😆
@Eric Powell You could say I rationalized the whole thing. I was dating her, not her family. She treated me well and we spent a lot of time together. Her aunties opened up about the racism that goes on because they were with black men too. They had kids with them and all that. Things went sour and I guess she couldn't handle the pressure anymore.
@@stayflyking brother when you learn who we are you will understand why all these other people hate us! This has nothing to do with manners. And everything to do with bloodline.
"I don't think we truely knew why we felt that way". It is in the spirit. That statement should tell black people that their spirit is of a different origin . Black people will never say something like that because we don't suffer from that. They reveal themselves all the time. Whether they say something that reveal it or do something that reveal it. Black people must wake up and realise the spirits we live among.
Totally agree. We have to call them out. We can't just let them continue to be disrespectful like this, it's been happening for centuries. The difference between then and now is we have the internet. Twenty-five years of being away from my country and nothing has change.
Your comment is retarded, the way to fight against prejudice is not to draw whole groups as inherently evil so you can feel better..remember africans sold Black guyanese (present) into slavery to the europeans, indians were force/volunteered to be duped, their brethren did not sell them..this does not mean africans have an evil spirit. Racism is endemic everywhere, its due to Ignorance and a poor cultural mindset, her comment related to normative cultural indoctrination. We all have racism within us and we have to start the work there. This girl is different, accept her as an ally otherwise it is you who will be racist
@@popinjay3000 "africans sold Black guyanese (present) into slavery to the europeans" Don't know if you are European but I'm going to answer in the same way I do them because you just repeating the same ol "fall back on" therefore you are no different. Using what? What did you people have to trade just after the end of the black death in your lands? What did you ever had to trade that the Africans did not already have? For example. You all didn't have gold, sliver copper... what did you have. What did the UK trade? Tin and Coal? Remember you didn't have anything that's why you all went and pillage. You can't even show an example of the items in your museums. You wre thieving everything from Africa. What you possibly could have had trade for human flesh. You know what we do see though stewn across Africa from those times? I'm more like to come across Cannons Muskets and Musket ball and cannon balls and we all know who were the one that had the trigger end don't we? You know why you people all ways repeat that your BS? Because that all you people ever had. BShit in defense. Even in front of God's face you will repeat. I can't wait to see it. 😁
Well I'm afro Trinidadian 🇹🇹 and I'll tell you this she is right but when they hit the states and realize they are the lower minority here they become your brother
Statistically Indo-Americans are doing far better than White Americans (education, income, property ownership). So I don't know where you get your "lower minority" BS from.
@@mostofamojlish8255 You have this and you have that lol. Everytime I talk to an Indian it's always what they have but they are always nasty, racist and terrible people. Money does not make racism go away. But I will remember that when I see one of yall facing racism, I will say, well you have money and position so use it to tell the person not to be racist against you.
Some Guyanese black people are also racist towards other races Guyanese Indians aren't just dismissive of black Guyanese they typically don't like any other races either (Guyana was founded with five races not two).... She's only telling part of the story there's not much racism to speak of here...
Indo Guyanese tend to see themselves better then Black's And Amerindians but beg for acceptance from West Europeans, Central Europeans, East Europeans, East Asians, South East Asians, Middle Easterners, And North Africans while all those groups see Desis as lower then them usually yeah.
You simply make snark comments back at him implying that you're beneath him because of something he can't control and slowly exclude him. Let him feel like he doesn't belong there. But never be too direct. Say something like: "wow I didn't know indians were so smart thats suprising" or "you're a very kind guy for an indian". If he comes to work ask him "did you eat chicken tandoori" and if he asks why you tell him "you smell it and its food you love" Few months of this game and he'll slowly start looking down on his own people and anything indians are insecure about. That's how to deal with racists.

And the country went into bankruptcy and never recovered...as Amin was so smart. He kicked them out because he was a racist dictator idiot, and the black power movement was in full swing actually influencing all parts of the world. You need to stop using this moronic lazy line and Use the two brain cells that you have and come up with something of your own. You need to stop stop drawing parallels between people;e from India that went to African and Indians that went to the Caribbean. Indians that went to most part of Africa went there very late, and were never part of the culture, by the time Amin was in power. to Black men. Why do you want people (non black women [ especially white ] ) who dont want you? That is the bigger question. Figure that one out first.

So Grenada 🇬🇩 is really and exceptional country in the Caribbean there is no racism in Grenada, black, white ,Indian and Chinese live in perfect harmony with that being said the blacks are the dominant race in Grenada 🇬🇩
The harmony only comes about when blacks dominate the population, if the other's had the greater number, they have the need to step on our necks. I come to notice that it's only black people on a whole who accepts everyone without prejudice. If you find a black person speaking disparagingly about another group, it's a reaction of the unfair that happens to them or their people. Anyway big up Grenada, I have roots there.
That's true harmony only exists where and when the blacks are the majority, I truly believe that because blacks don't attack other races but other races always unfair and attack black people, it is also true blacks have a different origin than other races!!! Because scientists no the origin of all races, but the origin of the other races is so frightening to then they can't tell the public so all of a sudden they tie the other races to us saying they came from us?? When did we stop making them? For people who don't like us to tie their origin to us as their fathers you know their true origin is devastating to them but it's about time our own black scientists start to refute that claim publicly!!!! They forgot the 3/5 smh I won't say more!!! But the 3 is the totality of humanity and the extra 2 is their known unknowns that they keep from the world

The CIA infiltrated Guyana back in the 60s and exacerbated the race wars between the blacks and Indians, from a political and sociological standpoint. They spearheaded race riots and mass killings and to this day, the tension is still high between Afro-Guyanese and Indo-Guyanese. The 2 main political parties are racially split between blacks and Indians.

Only people, that has not achieved anything of economically significant in their life, have the time to blame other people of racism. We, in Guyana, all know some person, either black or East Indian, who might have done or say something that might be considered a little racist. But when the politicians are not involved or are manipulating us, we usually live as one happy family. We, black peoples, are not going back to Africa nor is the East Indian going back to India. Guyana is our home and we, usually, are very united almost as one until the politicians tries to divide us for their political benefit and to get elected into office. But we are maturing and growing up as a Guyanese people. We got to stay together as one. Or we will not survive as a Guyanese people.

As a Guyanese, what she is saying regarding the division is real, but it's not always outright obvious until you examine the economic disparity between the groups. It's done on purpose because some people believe that blacknfolks don't deserve to be on the same economic level as the Indians. Note that not all Indians subscribe to this belief.
I have a question . I'm not from Guyana or anywhere remotely close to that part of the world . With the economic disparity that you mentioned , Do the black community have the same benefits as the Indians in Guyana ? If the Indian's are economically better , how did they achieve that . Do the Indians get special assistance from the government ? These are legit questions to understand what you wrote .

My personal take is globally the root cause of racism is ADULTS. Place very young kids in a room of any ethnicity to play and they will interact and be be loving. Add an adult to the mix, and the biases and influence will affect that group of kids. Now ask yourself, how do you fix racism? Answer: Start with the adults, but best of luck.
Indians weren’t slaves in the Caribbean. They were indentured servants. Completely different. Indentured servants had no forced loss of culture, religion, names, no uncompensated work and had an agreed time period as an indentured servant. It was still sh*tty, but not slavery and not what Black people went through.
No! The so-called Indians in her community is fighting against the black people there, and not the other way around. Now, the black people there are responding to the racist attitudes of the Indians because in her own words, they were told not to marry black people. Also, the way she was explaining the racism of her community was like it was a come up for black people to marry them and by doing so, they were doing the black folks there a favor.
The Indians in Guyana WERE slaves! They were brought there before the Africans. My wife is the oldest of 3, and she always felt that her grandmother liked her least because she was the darkest.
You black people need to understand as Indians we dealt with racism from blacks. I’m born in Canada but I’ve heard horror stories from relatives that went to school about blacks bullying them and picking on them so blacks are racism towards Indians .
As an Indian American I think that the issue is not about race or hatred of blacks. It was difficult for our elders to adopt another faith/culture because they were very culture conscious. Assimilation was difficult for them. Conditioining and practice are needed for this skill.

And Mahatma Gandía knows all about its exsistance.. In India there is discrimination of CAST, CLASS, & CREAD.. It is something that IS so inbeded in the hearts, minds, and souls of the Indians Who CAME from India.. This Young lady was saying that her parents never told them why they discriminated the Afro-Guyanese.. In India there diffrent class of Indians in India.. For example the : Varna, Játi and Caste; It is referred friquently in the Indians texts. They are four classes, the Brahmins... (the Priestly people).. The Kshatriyas( the Rulers, Administrators, and the Warriors, also called Rajanyas.) The Vaishyas, (Artisans, Merchants, tradesmen, and Farmers) The Shudras (the Labouring classes So the East Indians Who came from India to the West Indies Came with a culture of discrimination because It was exsited amoung them in India.. A Shudras East Indian could not sit in the same chair With a high clase Brahmins.. nor could a Shudras marry a Kshatriyas.. A Shudras had to sit on the floor in the or wait out side at the gate like a slave when he visited the home of a Kshatriyas, or the home of a Brahmins.. In 1960 when the was talks of Independence in Guyana.. Dr Cheddy Jadgan and his Wife , and his very good friend Forbes Burnham went to India seeking polictical backings so that one of them could rule Guyana after they gain Independence from the British.. But in India the Indian Government Spoke to Cheddy Jadgan in Hindú and told him VARNA,JÁTI.. means Caste.. or RACE for RACE, to each fight for its own RACE to rule Guyana.. During the slavery days the East-indians and the Afro-Guyanese was one people, until Burnham and Cheddy Jadgan visited India in 1962

You don't find too many Muslims marrying Hindus. You don't find too many Brahmins marrying Sudras. Now, if money is involved you are talking a different story. Personal Note: I am convinced many Guyanese are boat Brahmins. They changed caste on the boat ride to Guyana eons ago.
I’m a lightskin Guyanese (half black half white) and when I was in Georgetown all u hear is white boy this white boy that I come back here and I’m black again it’s crazy
She's not wrong, and not "racist" either, that's the way we grew up, the two races were close but yet so far apart, we ate from one plate, drank from the same cup, but yet deep inside it felt different in certain situation, it was all meant to happen this way because we were conditioned for this, cannot blame any one race, I wouldn't it is what it is....
@2:00 I like how she said many Indians in Guyana have African ancestry I would dare say Indians in Guyana are mixed than countries like Suriname and Trinidad... although Indo-Guyanese also have Amerindian and Portuguese in them in as well
