Hello! My name is Rueben Thomas, and I proudly call Baramita in the Barima-Waini region of Guyana my home. As a farmer, I have deep roots in our rich earth, cultivating everything from cassava to plantains, and I take immense pride in contributing to our local economy and food sovereignty. The lush landscapes around Baramita are not just my workplace; they are a vital part of my identity, connecting me to both my ancestors and the vibrant communities that surround me.
Growing up in Guyana, I have witnessed the complexities of our nation’s history. Many people say we didn’t truly gain independence when we did, and that sentiment resonates deeply within our culture. Yet, it’s through our resilience and unity that we can share our stories and experiences. I find joy in the flavors of our traditional dishes—like pepperpot and the ever-popular roti—bringing together family and friends over meals that celebrate our heritage. I often reminisce about the bustling vendors at River Windward Point, where the essence of our community thrives amidst the colorful displays of local produce.
As a member of the Guyanese diaspora, I understand the longing for home felt by many who have moved abroad. I aim to connect with those who share my background, whether it's through social media or community events. While some have had mixed experiences visiting our beautiful country, I hope to bridge those gaps and showcase the warmth of our people. Together, we can celebrate the beauty of Guyana, from the tranquil banks of the River Jamaica Settlement to the verdant hills that cradle our farms. Join me in preserving our culture and promoting the richness of what it means to be Guyanese.
