Greetings from the vibrant West Coast Demerara! I’m Bibi Madray, a proud resident of the railway embankment area, where the lush landscapes meet the gentle rhythms of river life. My heart beats to the sounds of the Pomeroon River as I gather with friends and family, sharing stories over a plate of pepperpot and some freshly baked cassava bread. There's nothing like the aroma of Guyanese delicacies wafting through the air, reminding us of our rich culinary heritage that connects us to our ancestors.
Growing up in Essequibo Islands-West Demerara, I have an unwavering appreciation for our local culture and history. From the scenic views of River Waipaqua Settlement to the bustling markets where we barter and laugh, every corner of our community tells a story. I’ve also experienced the vibrant energy of our diaspora – a reflection of our resilient spirit that transcends borders. It’s crucial for us as Guyanese to share our narratives and keep our culture alive, whether through traditional music or simply by enjoying a cold beer while reminiscing about home.
I believe in the power of unity in diversity, and I strive to foster connections within our community and beyond. While some may mispronounce our place names, I invite everyone to immerse themselves in our culture and learn from our collective experiences. Let’s come together to celebrate who we are, uplift one another, and continue to pave the way for future generations, ensuring that our rich heritage remains vibrant and respected.
