just cool not here to debate or argue with your posts but most of the indentured workers (indians you referring to in yuh last post) did not come to T&T with "money" (like you said)..
they even worked for minimum wages in the cane fields and settled in the most rural parts of of Trinidad..
Bredder, if yuh don't have money, then yuh cyar buy nothing! east indians came here as indentured workers, in other words, they worked and got paid however little it was.
have you ever read the history of trinidad and tobago? well i did! black ppl was even allowed reparations, but never received it up till this day. indians and chinese on the other hand after leaving the barracks were given land tuh settle on.
That is not what you said in your last post. and I am not debating anything about Black, or Chinese or white so i didnt read the rest. You probably just did not write what you meant correctly in your last post..You said indians and chinese came to T&T with "money"..and that is what i corrected..
Well read the rest nah, before yuh jump out the window! as for me saying indians and chinese came here with money, you must be drinking pinesol?? i said and i quote" don't forget, indians and chinese ppl came here with their culture," commer! my next statement was " they also had money to buy land no matter how little it was" end quote! didn't they work for money in the canefields? so yeh they got paid for their labor , and they bought land, plus land was afforded them by the crown. what part of that didn't you understand!
BTW , yuh can't in ah million yrs compare the african experience with the indian, chinese or portuguese experience! we were stolen and forced to work for free for almost 400 yrs, talk about being treated badly, what! yuh think the british was giving us preferential treatment while indians was dumped on.
did indians get licks tuh work in the hot sun, was your names taken away for english names? did they sell indians from up under their parents like puppies ? was indian men and women banned from having families? all this talk about not being able tuh have ah hindi wedding, we were not even allowed tuh marry. all other ppls came here on their own, they got paid, and coulda leave and go back to their homeland anytime they wanted.
