Ahead of today’s 40th anniversary of the death of co-founder Walter Rodney, who it maintains was assassinated by the then governing PNC, the Working People’s Alliance (WPA) yesterday recommitted itself to the quest for a Guyana that is based on ethno-racial, social and gender equity.
“We can do justice to Walter Rodney’s life, work, and sacrifice to renew our determination as Guyanese people to marry our diverse and uplifting ethnic identities to the freedom of a non-racial political culture,” the party said in a statement issued yesterday.
Further, it recommitted “to the first step towards ethnic jointness” in the form of “a Government of National Unity and Reconstruction” that recognizes the right of all groups to be represented in the halls of national decision making.
