African Guyanese should be impatient with the racism and bias demonstrated by the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) government in Guyana. This is because racism and bias have a profound and harmful impact on the lives of African Guyanese, and it is important for them to stand up for their rights and demand fair treatment.

One of the main reasons why African Guyanese should be impatient with the racism and bias demonstrated by the PPP government is because these attitudes and behaviors can have a negative impact on their quality of life. Racism and bias can lead to discrimination in areas such as education, employment, and housing, which can make it more difficult for African Guyanese to succeed and achieve a better standard of living. In addition, racism and bias can create an unwelcoming and hostile environment for African Guyanese, which can make it more difficult for them to feel safe and included in their own communities.

Another reason why African Guyanese should be impatient with the racism and bias demonstrated by the PPP government is because it is a violation of their basic rights. All citizens have the right to be treated with respect and dignity, and to be free from discrimination and bias. When the government fails to protect these rights, it undermines the fundamental principles of democracy and justice.

There are several actions that African Guyanese can take to make life better for themselves and their communities. One action is to advocate for change and speak out against injustice. African Guyanese can use their voices and platforms to raise awareness of the issues facing their community and to demand fair treatment and equal opportunities.

Another action is to organize and build community power. African Guyanese can work together to build networks of support and solidarity, and to advocate for their rights and interests. This can involve participating in protests, boycotts, writing letters and petitioning the government, and engaging in other forms of civil action.

Finally, African Guyanese can work to build relationships and alliances with other groups and organizations that share their values and goals. This can help build a broader movement for change and increase the chances of success.

More African Guyanese have to demonstrate the courage to stand up against PPP racism and oppression or they curse their children and grandchildren to lives of generational servitude, poverty and injustice.
