Greetings! My name is Abdool Yusuf, and I am proud to call West Coast Demerara my home. As a dedicated cane harvester, I have spent years working in the lush fields that define our beautiful landscape. The rich soil and warm sun are not just my workplace; they are the very heart of our culture, where families come together to share stories and meals, often featuring our beloved pepperpot and roti. Here in West Coast Demerara, we celebrate our connections to the land and to each other, whether it's at local markets or community events like the Lower Pom River Friendship Scheme.
Having grown up along the Pomeroon River, I hold a deep appreciation for the natural beauty and diversity of Guyana. Whether it’s the vibrant colors of our festivals or the taste of fresh fish from the Essequibo, each experience is woven into the fabric of my daily life. I often reflect on how our diaspora community shares these stories, fighting against misconceptions and showcasing the truth about our lives. It’s important to highlight that Guyana is more than the poorest areas often depicted; it’s a land of opportunity, resilience, and culture that deserves to be celebrated.
As I navigate life here in Essequibo Islands-West Demerara, I remain committed to representing our people and advocating for our needs. The voices of Guyanese, whether at home or abroad, should be heard in the decisions that shape our future. I invite you to join me in celebrating our heritage and community, as we continue to build a brighter tomorrow for generations to come.
