Dear Editor,
I was saddened by Freddie Kissoon’s column in today’s KN (27/2/17) titled “Please Mr Thompson, I’m not a one man army” in which he comes across as being on the verge of giving up his popular, brave, scholarly and thought-provoking analyses/observations of the ills and irrationalities in Guyana.
I can certainly appreciate the natural ‘tiredness’ and disappointments which come from what must often appear like hitting one’s head against the proverbial brick-wall of stubbornness, ignorance and backwardness. Changing human behavior at both the individual and collective levels is a long term, even unending challenge for which only few, the likes of Freddie Kissoon, seem willing and able to attempt.
I believe I reflect the wishes of many of our compatriots when I ask you, Freddie Kissoon, to please continue your unique efforts in the media, on the streets, elsewhere and otherwise in what must often seem a long, lonely road towards a better Guyana. The world has produced several ‘one man armies’, the likes of Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandella…..we may still find our unique and successful Guyanese ‘one man army’ some day; in this regard I again ask Freddie Kissoon not to exclude himself.
Nowrang Persaud
LISTEN HOW JAGDEO WILL MAKE ALL GUYANESE RICH!!!
