Hello! I’m Addis Black, a proud resident of West Coast Demerara, specifically from 75 Third Street North. Growing up here, I’ve been immersed in the vibrant cultural mosaic that is Guyana. Our community is a beautiful blend of influences, from the rich spices of our Chinese cuisine to the soulful rhythms of Indian music that fill the air. There’s nothing quite like enjoying a plate of duck curry while listening to a lively Punjabi melody playing in the background, a true testament to our multicultural heritage.
Guyanese culture is deeply rooted in our history, with people of African, Indian, European, and Indigenous ancestries contributing to our unique identity. I take pride in being part of a community where warmth and hospitality are second nature. Whether it’s sharing a meal with neighbors or celebrating festivals like Phagwah and Diwali, our collective spirit is what makes life in Essequibo Islands-West Demerara truly special. And yes, we speak English here, but you’ll often hear the delightful mix of creole and dialects that reflect our diverse backgrounds.
As I navigate my life here, I cherish the connections I have with both locals and the Guyanese diaspora around the world. I believe that our stories, whether they originate in the heart of Georgetown or the bustling streets of New York, weave together a narrative that celebrates our resilience and unity. I’m excited to share my journey and invite you to experience the beauty and richness of Guyanese culture with me!
