Freddie sensationalizes Kwayana’s words in his recent column

Jul 26, 2020 Letters

Dear Editor

I have just read Freddie Kissoon’s column titled “ Eusi Kwayana: Long Journey back into Sydney King.“ When I read the headline, I knew the column would have little or nothing to do with it. That is a Freddie Kissoon staple. If you write a daily column, as Freddie does, it is hard not to indulge in fiction, fantasy, character assassination, madness on paper, gossip, and malice. Those are also Kissoon staples.

Freddie quotes widely from a recent Kwayana letter to the media on the 2020 election and in his malice towards Kwayana turns the man’s words of wisdom into a cuss-out. And when the reader is waiting for him to quote Kwayana from the 1960s when he was Sydney King, it never came. They will never come because Freddie has no interest in them. His interest is in using sensational headlines to assault the integrity of an African Guyanese, Guyanese, Caribbean and Black treasure. Having said that, I hope Freddie proves me wrong and actually does his research. I can help him. Thanks to a mutual colleague, I have access to a lot of Kwayana’s writings from the 1940s to the present.

Yours truly,
David Hinds
