THIS is in further response to Barrington Braithwaite’s racist rants in the Kaieteur News. Out of the usual race armory of Guyanese racial exchanges usually  attributed to misunderstood poverty, Barrington Braithwaite  bludgeons an exchange with the usual “guilt loaded racism” deployment on his Indo-Guyanese countrymen in clockwork timing rapidity. His letter of KN of 5-27-14 titled “the ‘Sultan Mohamed’ group is becoming less and less viable to fool this generation” was responding to my KN letter of 5-24-14 titled “Mr. Braithwaite must build his own house as a priority rather than destroy others”. 

If Braithwaite feels so confident that “this”, “that” or any “generation” are no fools then
what is there to be concerned, much less worry about? His original
letter of KN on 5-20-14 titled ‘the other normalcy” excoriating the
Indo-Guyanese origins in India was targeting both an original religion
and an entire country’s race population but, after censure, Braithwaite has shifted to make it a “generation” issue.

Endowment in black munificence has apparently either graced or bypassed
Barrington’s roots after slavery was abolished in 1838. Which is
it, some three centuries after abolition of slavery? Publicly
identified with the ACDA in becoming a cultured African is he speaking
as their spokesmen by use of the royal plural? For him to claim that
today’s black condition is (quote) “because we are victims of what is
now established as ‘ideological racism’ plus spite, and it was the
manipulation of race, not ideas, that have always been the factor to
exist of the PPP, with the Indo-Guyanese as your pawns, and they’re not
accepting the bottom-house ‘Black man ah déblé’ (devil) anymore.”
(Unquote) is a talking drum out of tune with the times, especially black
self-sufficiency. What Braithwaite has done…, he wrote it himself
…. is finding some kind of nirvana through validation from bottom house
Indo-Guyanese because, commendably (quote) “they’re not accepting the
bottom-house ‘Black man ah déblé’ (devil) anymore”! (unquote). He does
not say why. Must any laudable acknowledgement of any race as no longer
the devil require specific Indo-Guyanese endorsement to anyone,
including black emancipation and happiness? If such is a deal breaker
revelation for any Indo-Guyanese credit to interracial co-existence,
then what else is still secret to be revealed? What was received in
return? Without the presence of any Indians with ancient cultural
origin in Haiti to be blamed for its poverty, Braithwaite has no
case whatsoever in Guyana.
All the charges of racism against Braithwaite were not in any
systemic ambivalence, either vague or inferred, as he now portrays
them. They remain specific, factual and very clear, without a shadow of
doubt. evidenced by his own words requiring clarification. What he had
written in the officially printed KN of 5-27-14 titled “the ‘Sultan
Mohamed’ group is becoming less and less viable to fool this
generation” contained a glaring pivotal alteration of what he had
first written in KN on 5-20-14 titled ‘the other normalcy”.
On being taken to task and realizing it was offensive he attempted to
blur its severity by blatant fabrication and distortion of that
first letter of KN of 5-20 -14, thus prolonging this debate. This is
dishonest and wrong, for which he should apologise. Originally he first
wrote “… that India stands out as the host nation of the origins of
the infamous Bramanic Aryan cult with its bizarre ideologies of racist
oppression.” After my response in the KN of 5-20-14 , he lied
blatantly by clever rewriting to disarm readers in the KN of
5-27-14 by stating that, (quote): “I will address the only area that
can truly be attributed to me by Mohamed, (sub quote ) ‘that India
stands out as the host nation of the (he omitted three words i.e.
“origins of the”) infamous Bramanic (missing word “Aryan) cult with its
bizarre ideologies of racist oppression” !(Unquote). Why did he do
this? You never know. Braithwaite steps into unknown territory
and therefore cannot be accused of only fooling himself.
Shame on Braithwaite for his clever wailing victimology of
shifting blame in counter charging they were (quote) “implying their
own illness of racism to me (Braithwaite), accusing me (Braithwaite) of
despising Indians, naturally among them my own relatives” (unquote)
but he still outshines Shakespearean drama. As if in justified
righteous anger he seeks to invoke and harness black umbrella sympathy
and protection. Isn’t he such a joy of dignity to behold? Clean up
your fake act man. It stinks. Sorry to disappoint, but all black people
are not automatically viewed as deble (devils) most assuredly, as he
claims; with all certainty, no other races including Indians, are,
likewise not devils or otherwise, regardless. Such perverted
mentality becomes a verbal spectacle in gymnastics, plain and simple, and is what erodes collective dignity and does no good for all
Guyanese. What originally began our exchange was only prompted by
Braithwaite’s initial provocative miasmic projectiles, armed with his
arcane race prejudices against Indo-Guyanese in a letter to KN of 5-20
-14 titled “the other normalcy”. Let him now deal with its fallout by
his own conscience, honour and the temperance cushion of any supposedly
Indo-Guyanese ancient unbuffed Aryan relatives or friends he may
have recently discovered to proudly acknowledge and escape scrutiny.
However, it was UWI’s Dr Kean Gibson’s inflammatory existing attack on
Hinduism’s ancient Aryan origins by hook and book, which
automatically includes all those of Indian ancestry, regardless of any
unbleached non-Hindus Aryan race ancestry. That bold attack on
Indian existence and their rights to survival cannot be more
threatening. Braithwaite’s echo of black satisfaction that no
one is a devil now requires Gibson’s insensitive assault be
withdrawn, with full apology and restitution. By Braithwaite’s own
measurement standards what determines priority to resolve Guyana’s
problems is made clearer. Constantly claiming the black condition was
neglected due to race can never be righteously sustained by rampant
political cannibalism of the “others” for peaceful coexistence. It is
conclusively Caricom’s Indians who can justifiably assert to their
detractors that its (quote) “because we are victims of what is now
established as ‘ideological racism’ plus spite, and it was the
manipulation of race, not ideas, which have always been the factor to
exist of the PPP, with the Indo-Guyanese as your pawns”. Add Gibson’s fuel to Braithwaite’s black assault on Indians to make
it worse by its concentrated “religious and ideological racism”.
In Mr. Braithwaite’s original identification of his own racist
projection from Georgetown all the way to New Delhi by claiming
(quote) “ India’s serious domestic resistances to this three
thousand-year practice (Aryan Indian origins of Hinduism that) are
ongoing and are commendable, yet, its vestiges remain rooted over
there, (India) and have troubled this country’s (Guyana) modern
history significantly for too long ” (unquote) is what underlies his
preoccupation, which has been troubling. But his macabre letter is
only incredible foolishness without justification. He continues the
habitual reanchoring to another, in this case to Indo-Guyanese, as
the central target and resolution of slavery’s many leftover
problems. But Indo-Guyanese did not enslave anyone in the Caribbean, as
everyone knows; even noted by Mr. Eusi Kwayana. Why must their
Caribbean presence automatically require their descendants to be
saddled with slavery’s forever problems by inheritance? Indians
themselves absolutely require no others’ validation for their presence,
cultural, economic and political survival. Neither has it been a
Caricom Indo-Guyanese achievement that drove out all Euro-Guyanese,
forced the Portuguese to quit in disgust, and is currently serving
the Chinese with the usual menu’s acrimony. Truth be told, the Indo-
Guyanese has always automatically become subjected to black
prejudgment and found guilty because of their numbers and economic
success. Whittled down by internal and external interests, their
unique cultural and religious practices remain defenceless. By what
peaceful necessary means must their continued existence prevail for
human rights survival is only their right to decide: No claim of mandate or
authority to speak for anyone or group belongs to me.
