Our tall boys were all Intellect and Academics.
Guyana Afros wanted to be Doctors and Lawyers
and their sport of choice was the colonial CRICKET !

we did not even compete in Track and Field
BUT produced great writers and theorists from our Afro segment of SIX races !

Aldo? BREAKING ?

Former Australia opener Joe Burns will now play for Italy, aiming to help them qualify for the T20 World Cup 2026 in honor of his late brother and grandparents. ????

Burns' brother, Dominic, passed away in February this year. With the 34-year-old not receiving a contract from Queensland for 2024-25, he decided to make the switch.

He will wear the number 85 jersey to honor his brother. ❤️
