There is a situation playing out in NYC because of an incident in the NY Labor Day Parade where the head of the Barbados consulate in NYC is accused of allegedly mistreating a government official, not sure yet if it’s city, state or federal, and her 11-year-old daughter. The issue is now in mediation. But the text of one side of the story is posted below. We grew up as chidlren of Afrikan descent knowing we were treated differently by society, but could never understand why, did not have that information, and as we grew the disrespect was hard to not notice and even harder to fight against, since you were victimized if you tried to fight back and could get injured, blacklisted in the society or killed. Turns out this was the politician’s game plan as the face we saw and the ones in charge. If we always feel inferior, with no self esteem and even less self-confidence they get to carry out all their criminal activities against us, because at that point we are all the mindlessly, clueless enslaved. So they had no resistance, in their treacherous criminality against us, our foreparents and our current and future generations. That’s exactly what happened for the last 100 years, until it backfired with the advent of the internet and social media. Pure poison created by these beasts calling themselves leaders, hence the fight to not allow them to spread that ugly societal disease to other Caribbean islands that have their own problems and to the continent of Afrika: to dismantle the direct disrespect to Afrikan descended women and children, so it does not leak into other jurisdictions, as they spread the 1661 slave codes around from Barbados and destroyed societies everywhere. We also noticed that whites, indians, syrian/arabs and others had no such problem, and were actually treated with reverence, but again, no information to help us better understand why or the design of our predicament back then. It’s now we are well aware they are all parasites in Afrikan lives, and kept in place by traitor politicians for the bribes derived from their relationships. So we were effectively demeaned, demoralized, dehumanized, disenfranchised, and held hostage to feed criminals in the parliament and their minority partners.

They are proud of that disgusting, disrespecful poisonous slave minded behavior and had the temerity to practice it in New York in public.

They will all now come with WARNINGS, as they should.. and just as deserved….it was bound to happen one day..

The head is poisonous. The head got on ITV London and told the whole world that bajans were slaveminded, and NEVER lifted a finger to reverse the damage….since then people have been watching and KNEW there would be a manifestation..

That is their problem, but they need to keep that poison in Barbados and resist spreading it to other societies, or forcing Black women and their children offshore to accept that disgusting behavior, they practice so freely on the island, because it makes the low class feel important, and believe it’s a good look..can’t hide or cover it up anymore, it has gone on for far too long. Every dog gets it’s day.

It’s a terrible embarrassment but am sure that is not the sentiment felt. We know the mindsets too well.

The text of the complaint of what transpired:

CGID CONDEMNS BARBADOS CONSUL GENERAL TO NEW YORK OVER HIS VERBAL ATTACK ON FEMALE NEW YORK ELECTED OFFICIAL

The Caribbean Guyana Institute for Democracy (CGID) on Monday harshly condemned the behavior of the Consul General of Barbados in New York, Mackie Holder, for his verbal abuse of a female New York elected official at Monday’s West Indian American Day Carnival (Labor Day Parade). The parade was held on the Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn, and attended my millions of West Indians.

The Barbados Consul General was not only verbally abusive, but he lifted his hand and pointed his finger in the face of the female Democratic elected official. The Consul General knows who the elected official is and fully recognized her at the time of the incident.

The attack occurred on a double decker tourist bus sponsored by the Barbados Tourism Authority, which was part of the parade. What is bizarre, is that the West Indian American Day Carnival Association (WIADCA), which organizes the parade, does not normally allow such buses in the parade.

However, the Barbadian community appealed to the very elected official to assist with getting the bus to be in the parade. The elected official successfully appealed to the Association to allow the bus in the parade, only to be placed in disrepute by the incivility of an apparently power drunk Consul General.

The situation unfolded when the elected official, who was playing mas in the 95° temperature saw the bus in the parade and hopped on to greet the occupants and to ask for water. She was immediately accosted by the hostile, arrogant and ungrateful Consul General who ordered her off the bus in a degrading and disparaging fashion. While pointing his finger in her face, he yelled “Get off my bus!!” He then asked her if she did not have money to buy her own refreshments?

Several Caribbean Brooklyn community leaders discussed the matter, and denounced Holder’s behavior. The pervasive view is if the official was a male, the Consul General would not have ventured to be uncouth and disrespectful. The community feels that he was particularly abusive because the elected official is a woman.

We in the Caribbean American community will not tolerate this kind of abuse of our women. Holder obviously does not represent Caribbean values of hospitality, camaraderie, decency, civility and respect for women. His disgraceful conduct is beneath the dignity of a diplomat. Consequently, he is no longer welcome in our community.

CGID joins with others in the New York Caribbean American community to demand that the Consul General immediately offers an unqualified, written apology to the elected official.

Moreover, we also plan to be a signatory to a letter Caribbean American community leaders plan to write to the Prime Minister of Barbados demanding that Holder be recalled from New York forthwith.
