Mapoui ,
Indo Guyanese never really embraced Guyanese Nationalism.
These Forums taught me that ...
Mother India was a foreign concept to me....
until i mixed with these Posters .
Addiction to Hindi and Urdu music was a Virtual unknown ...
I even learn words like :
Samjay ?
Even though we observed the Religion :
I guess we never tied it in to the Culture .
So we are Guyanese Muslimsย ::lol:: ::lol::
Correct .
No change.
they even migrated the coolie culture to Canada !
and wherever they ended up ...Noo Yaaark ...Liberty Avenue .
Now , they children observing India....
Yes.
Indo trinis have separated themself from Calypso :
with Chutney and Soca ....Bollywood music as dem Base.
Even though they attend Carnival :
They are Indo first !
and Trini 2nd !
just like Guyanese Indos...
