Guyana almost had a civil war in the 80s due to the racial tensions. They have historically been worse.
Trinidad has never been that bad but in the politics you can see it. An Indian taxi driver was talking to me about how terrible Keith Rowley is (current PM who's black) and said the previous PM and leader of the opposition Kamla Persad-Bissessar (who's Indian) was so much better.
Thats anecdotal but I heard the politics was racialized after independence.

Guyana has bigger problems because it is poorer and the Indians dominated to a greater degree.
In these countries Indians control the economy, so having them control politics too leaves little for everyone else.

if it was just one race as the common denominator you could maybe say damn it's something about those people, but it doesn't matter which people are in that country with us. it's a pride thing, it's almost like it's been conditioned out of us from slavery and when it comes to everyone else we expect them to be better. but that negative energy we have for each other, pffffffffffff.It's so fukking depressing how black people end up as the underclass in virtually every country we share with others
it has to be slavery because even other groups who were brought over for menial labor were actually paid for their work. so being brought over to be the white man's paid underclass is superior to being bought and not paid for your labor.
he's talking to high school students. i don't see anything wrong with that, definitely not patronizing. it's a career pitch. i hope the young guyanese (especially brehs) are seeing this as an opportunity to be IN these industries and not just collecting a rebate check from oil profits while they import a bunch of foreign know-how.
