Hello! My name is Arthur Thorne, and I hail from the vibrant region of Chinese, located in the Barima-Waini area of Guyana. As a dedicated logger, I spend my days working amidst the lush, green canopies that make our homeland so unique. The Pomeroon River nearby is not just a breathtaking sight but also a significant part of my daily life and the resources that sustain my community. I hold a deep appreciation for the rich biodiversity of our forests and the vital role they play in our way of life.
Having roots in Guyana gives me a profound sense of connection to my culture, which is rich with traditions and flavors. Whether it's enjoying a hearty meal of pepperpot or fried plantains, or sharing stories with friends about our beloved Portion Manawarin or Lower Pom. River Grant, I cherish the moments that remind me of home. Despite being part of a diaspora that often feels disconnected from the challenges back home, I strive to keep the spirit of our land alive and advocate for positive change. After all, we all want the best for our homeland.
As I navigate the complexities of life here, I remain proud of my heritage and the resilience of the Guyanese people. We’ve faced many obstacles, and while I may sometimes feel disheartened by the government’s actions and their impact on our people, I believe in the strength of our communities—both in Guyana and abroad. Together, we can strive for a brighter future that honors our past while embracing opportunities for growth.
