Nicole Narain Info
I was born and raised in Aurora, Illinois, which is a suburb of Chicago. Almost all of my extended family came to America from British Guyana, including my parents and my brother, but I was born an American citizen [inferiority complex nicole?]. Food, in my opinion, is one of the best parts of Guyana culture. My mom is a great cook. She makes the best curry chicken and pepper pot and lots of other amazing dishes. I’d love to go there someday, just to see where my mom and dad came from and get a better feel for my roots. - Credit Playboy.com Read the rest of this entry »

Offsetting is popular because it makes people feel much better about taking long-haul flights or driving gas-guzzling vehicles. “They are being misled,” says Oakley. “Most carbon offsetting companies are making a killing.” Climate Care, the company David Cameron pays his green-guilt tax to, has recently been bought by the investment bank J P Morgan. In the credit-crunch climate, any new acquisitions are thought through very carefully, and only the most watertight pass muster. This move suggests that carbon offsetting is currently considered one of the most risk-free industries around.

I hope Dr. Randy Persaud does not take it personally (I am just being polemical) when I say that he made the right choice in that he and his family live in the US, where he teaches at an American university. He chose not to settle down with his qualifications in a Third World country. I am referring to his comments in a letter in KN on Sunday on one of my articles last week.
Responding to my observation in that column that the West’s penetration of world trade and its colonial control of the Third World had brought some positive values with it, Dr. Persaud fired back, claiming: “The realization of democratic developments in the Third World was not the result of the benevolence of the metropolitan powers, but through the long struggles of Third World peoples.” Read the rest of this entry »

Foot high statue from the Yucatan was tentatively dated from around 800 a.d. If this is accurate, it shows an African presence that was long after the Olmecs, and yet before the arrival of the Spaniards.

migente.com: the olmecs -aka- the xi are the motherculture of mexico, they are also the oldest civilization in the americas, who came from africa. discoveries in the field of linguistics and other methods have shown without a doubt, that the ancient olmecs of mexico, known as the xi people, came originally from west africa and were of the mende african ethnic stock. according to clyde a. winters and other writers (see clyde a. winters website), the mende script was discovered on some of the ancient olmec monuments of mexico and were found to be identical to the very same script used by the mende people of west africa. although the carbon fourteen testing date for the presence of the black olmecs or xi people is about 1500 b.c., journies to the mexico and the southern united states may have come from west africa much earlier, particularly around five thousand years before christ. that conclusion is based on the finding of an african native cotton that was discovered in north america. it`s only possible manner of arriving where it was found had to have been through human hands.

Dear Editor,

I was tempted after a more recent event has come to pass, to admit that the Kaieteur News columnist, Freddie Kissoon, was almost right - even strangely prophetic: he had interpreted my reconciliation with the PPP’s government and party leadership as an act of political suicide.
Before I could do so, my attention was drawn to an article (April 6, 2008) in which Kissoon named several PPP leaders whom, he claimed, “enjoyed democracy under Burnham’s presidency”.
Kissoon wrote: “No central committee and executive committee member of the present or part PPP were (sic) ever put in jail by Burnham”. Then he named me among others who were “never charged by the police under Mr. Burnham’s watch with even the minor offence of resisting arrest. They were never touched by Burnham’s police.” Read the rest of this entry »

On March 19th, 2003, the United States and Great Britain led their second publicized military assault on Iraq. Under the facade of liberation and democracy, U.S. troops seized the country, securing the oil fields, the Ministry of Oil, the Interior Ministry (CIA), and the lives of thousands of people. Iraq’s rich culture, history, and valuable assets were left vulnerable to stealth and destruction. In the years since, the lack of security, jobs, electricity, and potable water have made life for Iraqis unbearable. American troops are perceived by the indigenous population as occupiers–not liberators–for the Iraqi people are far better educated in U.S. history than Americans are themselves.

In Mexico, two women journalists have been killed in the southern state of Oaxaca. Teresa Bautista Flores and Felicitas Martínez were returning from a reporting assignment when they were ambushed by attackers. The victims both worked the indigenous community station called The Voice that Breaks the Silence. The Trique indigenous community in Oaxaca’s San Juan Copala launched the station earlier this year.

Ravi Dev has the temerity to quote Barack Obama

When I reached a certain part of what is now one of the most famous speeches by a politician in modern history — Senator Barack Obama’s delivery on race as his reaction to those who claimed that his church preacher, Rev. Wright, is a racist — my mind went on two Guyanese persons, Ravi Dev and Eric Phillips.
I will quote Obama: “For the men and women of Reverend Wright’s generation, the memories of humiliation and doubt and fear have not gone away; nor has the anger and bitterness of those years. That anger may not get expressed in public…At times that anger is exploited by politicians, to gin up votes along racial lines, or to make up for a politician’s own failings.” Read the rest of this entry »
