At first, I really did not read this bit of utter rubbish – before I replied as I did previously. Therefore I did not really realize how horrible it really is. Your thoughts are as heinous as the acts of criminals who victimize and murder innocent people especially young children and females. Your expressions could only originate from a racism mindset.
However, I am extremely happy you recognized I am behind a rock. It is obvious I stand upon and behind a rock named Sancho. If you had any sense of the history of Africans in Guyana you would have an appreciation for the moral fiber of the kinship of Sancho. Apparently you do not – therefore allow me to lecture you- they obviously did not teach real social history in the schools of Guyana.
Bentick Sancho and Tuckness Sancho, two brothers were the leading shareholders of Golden Grove on the East Coast of Demerara in January to may 1848. During the riots of February 18, 1856 known as the Angel Gabriel riots Bentick Sancho my rock, my messiah, and my representative did exactly what I would have done. Bentick Sancho stood firmly against the destruction of property and loss of life of Portuguese between Enmore and Belfield on the East Sea Coast of the county of Demerara in the colony of British Guiana. You can look it up it is stated clearly in the parliamentary papers respecting the riots of 1856 in British Guiana.
Before I continue let me remind you there are two folk songs about the prowess of males of the kinship of Sancho. They did not discriminate. There are today members of the kinship of Sancho who are surname and are members of the kinship of Pancham, Lutchman, Kissoon, Ramator, Mootoo, Fernandez and Rodrigues and among others. Sancho is a microcosm of the Guyanese society. It consists of all the ethnic groups found in Guyana.
If you dare to look in the Official Gazette of British Guiana between 1848 and 1966 you will note numerous entries of Sancho. Now if you dared to look at education notices between 1928 and 1934 you would find entries listing my primary rock, Muriel Sancho. My representative was a member of the third batch of teachers trained at teachers’ training college during 1932-1934. Muriel Sancho spent 27 years of her life educating children most East Indian in Primary Schools at Port Mourant, Rose Hall in Canje, Blairmont, Cumberland, and 68 village on the Corentyne Coast. It is my intention to be buried with my rock. Another point my grand mother was known as Coolie Rachel. Her mother, my great grandmother was known as Coolie Campbell. I am sure the ancestors including mother of Coolie Campbell came from Lookna. Now I have not even told you about two other rocks named Sancho, Lambert Tuckness Sancho and Alexander Sancho. I have not pointed out such rocks as James Campbell of Unity-Lancaster who at some period in the nineteenth century owned the land upon which stands the Leprosy Asylum built by Sharples in 1859. I am trying to find the records of the transaction of the land when it was acquired by the government of British Guiana and transformed into a settlement for East Indians. It is said in my family history James Campbell owned most of the land. I have not said a word about that wonderful kinship of Young of Buxton and Friendship. If you did not know now you know – at least you ought to now be aware you should inquire of the ancestry of people before you try to belittle their integrity. It does not look and say much for your thought process. You do not have to agree with what I have stated but if you care to respond I would like to read clear and logical thoughts being expressed.
Now again I am hoping bridges are not burnt ever so badly that communications are ceased. But however, that’s your prerogative.
I must admit I detest it whenever people get upset over politicians and religious people who for all intents and purposes does not care whether you suffer or live a relatively struggle free life. The majority of the practitioners of the two social sciences care about are themselves. It is high time people realize that fact. Why this exchange of words and or thoughts if the situation was under control by those who were elected to administrate the nation then there would be no reason to wail in any community in Guyana. How about that? Every time you look at images of the foreign embassies they are overflowing with Guyanese trying to escape the country. Well! Who is ruling the nation? I believe it is drug dealers masquerading as politicians or both supplementing each other conning the people of Guyana. I am sure it is corruption and money launders running the asylum.

Satish,
I believe you are clutching at straws. You are beating the proverbial dead horse. If you look at the total messages posted at the Buxton-Friendship forum you would realize not much activity and or participation takes places there. I am positive most of the postings are done by me. The owner of the group is like myself; a son of a career school teacher. However, it seems he has but little time and energy to galvanize the forum. He approves the messages. I do not believe random posting is allowed; for many of the messages I sent were not posted. The forum information tells the real story.
It has 30 email addresses. It was founded on Aug 31,
2002. However, if you check the number and the content of the messages you will then get the
total picture. At least you ought to have some idea
concerning what is really going on there.
Another point to ponder a huge number of the
people of Buxton and friendship were formerly
residents of Lusignan and other neighboring
communities. In fact one of the most worthy
figures
in the political history of British Guiana in the
last half of the twentieth century was birthed at
Plantation Lusignan. He was considered a protégée
of
Dr. Cheddi Jagan. He was very instrumental in the
election of Dr. Cheddi Jagan to the Legislative
Council in November 1947 and the formation of the
People’s Progressive Party.
I am simply asking you not to assume what is
simply not there. If you attempt such you would be
doing yourself a great disservice.

CONCLUSION: Someone said that we Indians are all talks.
We can see this is not the case with the Buxtonion folk.
Immaterial of what those `politically correct' contributors would say; you draw your own conclusions about the grieving in
