Columbus ships to be removed from T&T Coat of Arms

[Dizzy28]

Everyone enjoyed the colonial type parades this morning??

Military of a country never to have fight a war marching, heading by a figurehead the people of the country didn't vote for.

[st7]

woke up today and found out our country is still called Trinidad given by our grand master christopher keith columbus

[DMan7]

Ahhh so that's how Rowley got his middle name. Has been a fan of Columbus all this time. Waaaays.

[st7]

loll


btw, and hard luck if this was brought up before, are we (indians blacks Chinese syrians etc) victims of colonization in the sense that our ancestors did not originate from Trinidad?

i would assume the first peoples are the true victims of colonizers and we were a by-product of the Europeans as they brought our ancestors. if it wasn't for Columbus, we weren't be here. the ships signified the rediscovery of Trinidad (as i was taught in school).

my second question... are you happy to be here rather than the country your ancestors originated from?

my third question... why was this announced out of the blue to distract us from --- budget/property tax perhaps? or contract to print brand new notes?

[MaxPower]

Trinis continue to live in the past.

No wonder.

Focus on the present

Take in this interview from over 20 years ago with Carlisle Chang (deceased) who discussed the bacchanal when creating the coat of arms and national flag back in the 60's for eric williams.

African PNM supporters are the most patriotic and benefit the least from the country's resources

Remember there was colonialism in Africa too. India as well but idk anything about India.

So the answer depends on if we talking the pure Africa or the Africa with European interface

in history of the world
many races have been slaves or subservient to others incl their own genetic race

a padna of mine worked for years in ghana
his black african boss once asked him if the local negro trinis take advantage of their own just like in africa

this always was a question for me. we in the caribbean support panafricanism but do they in africa support it too. or are we the wrong type of black do mixed people and indian with skin blacker than them count

1% benefit the most and was never subjected to what First peoples, Africans & Indo had to endure.

Some of them happy with hdc house, URP, a lil ministry grant and bus pass eh

What you said has a lot of truth tho. Saw a video similar to this today and can't help but think about the patriots having fun while the 1% and associates are nowhere to be seen. Country going downhill with the murder toll projected to be the highest in recorded history but we jammin still.

It easy for the PNM to rile up African people, tell them you putting steel pan on the coat arms and they partying. And then they win elections and country gone to the dogs.

[pugboy]

fantastic idea for elections campaigning
have them dj trucks doing the normal campaign and at end of day meet up with a water truck
elections over before it start

[alfa]

What is they say about bread and circuses again?

As I said my African people are the most used & abused people from the PNM.

Injuns will take all the education and then look to migrate. Those that remain here take on top non government jobs, especially in the energy, law, engineering, & medical sectors.

Africans are behind and we have an African government

Columbus was born in Genoa Italy , lived in Valencia Spain , had five toes on each foot and is of ****** ancestry .


Removing his statues might be anti Semitic

Well said brother. We could be much better off but we are still a very successful nation.

The Bill was passed unanimously

Was this truly a priority at this time, among the pressing issues we have yet to deal with?

For politicians, opportunities for friends, family and cronies are always top priority.

Allyuh don’t understand how corruption works.

Just think with this change, how easy it is for money to channel left right and center for the amount of things that need to be changed.
