- "I've always been a proud black man."
This is how Prime Minister Dr. Keith Rowley chose to respond to statements made by Opposition Leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar during a Political Meeting on Thursday evening in which she allegedly referenced the Prime Minister by using the word "black."
Khrystal Wilson has more in this report.
Black and proud
To be black and every day kids dying is not time for debate
Black is enlightening 🎉😂
These Trinidad politicians are like Grade School kids in a school yard
Not only Trinidadian politicians
@@oralcummings4850 true
Politicians are people...all broken, in a broken world. No exception. Think about that!
@@karenfridie689 good observation
I am yet to ever hear the PNM speak of any race in a derogatory way on their platform
You are right, they prefer to do it off the platform, on social media or in their own cliques.
ecriptus wood everybody is entitled to there opinions and feelings. However when it’s in public it becomes divisive. Keep those kinds of thoughts at home yes.
@@nubiandarkie that's being hypocritical and will never solve any issues.
@@1daxwood Racist . Kamala is a thief.
@@fionaday334 Racist. Where is the evidence that she is thief. Go to the prisons and to the courts and see who are the thieves and murderers in the country. And to respond to another of your comments. Why don't you piss off back to Africa if you have problems in trinidad? In fact that's the feeling of white Americans, white British etc etc
He's African...and proud
Why black people claimed 'I am proud to be black' so why straiting their hair.
Inderdeo Persaud a person’s choice of hairstyle or hair manipulation has nothing to do with your feelings about your race. There are many reasons to straighten your hair and 99.9% it has nothing to do with being black. Try again or try to understand.
@@inderdeopersaud9076 what does a hairstyle have to do with pride in oneself?
Black and proud is just a phrase of convenience, if it was a reality fairness creams/bleaching creams would not be selling like hot bread all across India, Africa and the Caribbean. Let's be honest with ourselves. Most, if not all of us humans not happy with how God made us.
Michelle Ramdass I don’t think it’s a phrase of convenience. Most people who say it do mean it. The ones who are not happy with their race usually don’t say it. Also trying to change your appearance sometimes has nothing to do with the hatred of your race or skin but the societal pressures one feels. For instance for a long time natural hair within the black community was looked down on especially in the work place so women felt they had to relax their hair just to fit in or be accepted even though they themselves had no issue with their hair. Sometimes the same goes with the lightening of the skin especially in the entertainment industry. If darker skin was viewed just a favorable as lighter skin I’m sure many would not resort to those measures. It’s only now people are pushing back and saying this is who I am and recognizing that their are many types of beauty, races and faces in the world not just the few that we continuously forced to accept.
Once elections are near,race always pop up,true trini's are not racist.
Especially with the rowley government
Every body should be proud of themselves it does not matter what race or color but it seems that the Primeminister thinks that he alone should be considered 🤔
This racial issue has been brewing in the country for some years, I have been called Nigger by someone who I grew up with and I thought he was a friend growing up , but I came to the realization these people of East Indian descent hatred towards me and my people is nothing new . When you go to the scripts Simeon and Barnabas in the book of Acts was called Niger in the Roman province of Antioch , so I know my people have been it's called ugly names from the beginning of time but the scripts or Bible as we call it told me this will happen because it's a book of prophecies . HalleluYah = praise be to the most high Yah
We are all Human Beings created not equally but different in God's own image , being called names because of our race or color is very immature and hurtful , its sad this world is being destroyed by Humans that are a huge disappointment to life .. Am sorry you had to go through what you did , Gods got you and through him we will never be defeated ..
If you know WHO YOU ARE, the negative name- calling, cannot define you. It's never what others say about you that matter, but how you react. Don't let the devil dance in your parade...its a spiritual warfare that rages. We, the people are the victims. So chose wisely.
@@karenfridie689 Are u GOD take a look in ur mirror and view ur reflection of u then u can comment on others beliefs , i dislike ppl tht are fake , CHOOSE WISELY 🤣
A proud black man . We certainly need more of these. But a proud good man , a proud decent man , a proud hard working man ... there I always try my best to be.
You should be a proud human Rowley
I love my country and d people unites please one love
So what if she called him black? If you are a proud black man you should be glad to be called that. He is suggesting that being called black is an insult? I find his statement offensive. And I am proud and black.
He's talking about proud black man and he just had his police shoot other proud black unarmed protesters who were protesting the killing of other proud black citizens.
Stop insulting our intelligence Rowley. You continue to do so and you will get a surprise come election night.
What am I reading? I listened to the broadcast, and boy oh boy I was shocked when I heard it. Thanks for smart tv, and recording. I admit, she said blank and she also said black. She has a speech problem. The tongue and brain worked together, and she got caught. In this context, she was wrong. Does the PM controls what the police does? The police has a boss. The black brothers do not like themselves, because the kill each other. Stupid humans.
Annis Legall she said black man, turn on the caption on your TH-cam video. So PNM change it?
Anyone who is paid by the government can be controlled, you believe the TTPS is independent Ok. The top cop was selected by the PNM, wasn't he? Did he went through the ranks? Where you or the tax paying public part of the selection process fot the top cop? When government speak some of you guys listen and obey without asking a question, sheeps I say sheeps go to the slaughter house animals someone is waiting on a meal
@@burnout2239 I know she did.
You are trying to justify racism???? African people are called all sorts of things by other races including the "N" word, here we have an east Indian political leader of descent refused to use his legitimate right name as always to address an issue, but instead used a marginal title that express not one person but a race of people geographically and on a political platform as well, by using the title 'Rowley' meant that she addressed him and him alone, by using the word 'Black' she not only adressesd him but racially included a general term used to pin point a particular race.....this woman is racial, and if someone wrote that speech for her then they are only playing Shakespeare's for the listeners, only poet twist and play with words, it's called phonetics, calypsonians do it to send double messeges, UNC is a racist party, Kamla should resign NOW!!!! what is more ugly & disgusting than an undercover racist
Awesome. Black life matters, and that's why Dr Keith ROWLEY will be in for another term...Proud of you mr Prime Minister. This is Trinidad not India..👈👀
kamla referred to him as mr blank (for whatever stupid reason) and if he wins again its poor ppl who gonna suffer the most like u .. dumbasses who refuse to see the corruption that goin on now ...
@@tacoguysean868 So are You telling us that voting back the UNC would end the corruption??🤔 all political parties are in some way corrupt, but I rather the devil that I know than the one whom I don't....we live with pnm for many years, UNC came into power twice and ran a mock on corruption in just 5-10 years the country was close to sinking....Go from here .....😠😠😠😠
"India " yuh racial mc Trinidad is an mixture of some other race everyone .
@@innocentviews702 close to sinking ???? pnm ministers got contracts in the hundreds of millions n we all know corruption is on both sides but this govt lying about the $$ since the came into power
@@ezabellasahadath2155 Ay watch yuh language here, no body ain't cussing, y all yuh so damn low minded and quick to insult people so.... Talk or share your point without going so low nah😠 wah wrong with All yuh in true boy....Lord hv mercy🤔
So he is proud to be black and offended to be called black? 🤔.....that doesn’t make sense
The manner and context used in calling someone black should be thought well before doing especially on a political platform
You may be proud to be sexy, if you go to work & the boss calls you "Sexy", will you like that? P.s - I'm not even sure what she said & if she says is blank, I can't fight that.
There is a time an place for everything if she said black then on a platform in front the media is not the place for that
Mark us Garvey 1111 she said black man you people are to bias if the shoe were on the other foot all the dummies and racist would be saying he should resign.
All alyuh people don't know if it's black or blank but jumping to conclusions .
YES YOU ARE BLACK but now is not time for pityness. Hospitals, Drugs, Guns, Children Hospitals needs working on NOW!
These people have us thinking we should vex with one another . but they not helping Douglas ,
Lol
For a country with so many mixed origin citizens it's appalling that we still have to overcome racially divisive politics. I wonder how douglah voters make out because they're found nationwide.
And what about the Chinese and Syrians and Caucasian trinis? Don't forget.
All of us is black we are from the T&T
Only when you all want to justify a situation you use the "we all black" bandwagon, hope after this scenario you remain black and not brown or east indian
Where’s the oil TTT? Bright truths not lies ! Good and true reporting shall set you free !!!! Let your consciences be your guides when y’all read the news not only to the blind PNMITIES but the whole world .
Yes what about the fire truck UNC move from the road side for 6 million, what about 450 million extra that the contractor bid and was still awarded the contract, what about the 16 billion plus they took from NGC, what about how they never manage any of the state enterprises all they did was let them run on auto pilot and spent, stole and gave away all the money Patrick manning left, what about bulldozing the farmers crops and giving it to a business man for a dollar. Hectors is land 5 island, under cover racist get lost.
@@burnout2239 PNM all the way
Sharmin 2 names for you: Anand Ramlogan and Roodal Moonilal. There is actual evidence on them, not make believe
But Dr Rowley you are indeed a black man a proud black man. Africians call each other black which is not insulting. In Americia they say 'Black' That word black describing Negroes in the Caribbean has been around for ages. Why should the black man make an issue out of it now. Many books has the word black paterning to Africians. How come that word is racial all of a sudden. Is it because when Africians are called black by an East Indian person then it is racial? Would all East Indians in the Caribbean be charged for calling an Africian man black?
😅I LOVE MY OREO COOKIES. Does she know how many OTHER TYPE OF WOMEN want our OREO COOKIES ,we are proud of them KAMLA!
I am an Indian an a proud black one Rowley u is d one trying to separate d plp everything she say u trying to make she like bad
Rowley the biggest fool I ever saw !!!!!’
Lol
What is the Government doing abt the illegals from Venezuela , prostitution is a crime yet the people are exposed to them , drug trafficking and diseases are a main factor , how great is the Government ( Candyman ) ..
People must not lie so dry we all hear the words that black man.... nothing about blank him out God will deal wit alyu big time.. jus wait and see only time will tell
Thing is she might not have been lying a drunk's tongue twists words all the time.
Yes Roslyn Ganga i think wat you are saying make ah whole lot of sense ..we all heard wat we heard nothing about blank him out...but there's ah real God who does not lie ok.
Thanks for all your support.👍👍
I lisent to the speech which refers to this clip. SHE DID NOT SAY "BLACK" SHE SAID BLANK HIM OUT" for those that choose to belive Dr. Rowley please look at the clip and you ind the truth. This is not about race its about good govenance!!
Everybody goes on the caption black the difference is when the inside of us is as black as the outside. THE HEART
Oreo is a sweet bisket
Proud blankman
Ah diva soca star write a song and say he see a farmer Fork up the land.... People accuse him of cursing, he said i didn't say Fuck I said fork.... Ok, the people replied next time say plough to avoid trouble, cuz using the word in that context and the manner especially when talking about a farmer is foolish, she talking about a man who is black as night and using the word blank as in blank man, Kamla is stupid, foolish and drunk if she didn't know that would have caused eye brows to raise....stupid...
What kind of racist comment is this?
Why are Indian leaders so divisive? Panday and Kamla always do this. Apologize for what? She says what is in her heart! Panday said 'he will make Trinidad and Tobago ungovernable'.
yes we all proud of you.God loves you so your wife and family
Would not expect anything different, she took a page out Say Maharaj book
😂😅😊 really 🎉yoy guys crazy
People must remember Keith Rowley is like a hundred year old black man he can't hear very well...
Khamla is not a white woman i dont see the difference 🤯
I to would love to be a proud black man, but guess what I need equal opportunities....all politician are in the back pocket of someone, so please Sir don't play holy, once PNM in power one set of people benefits same as with UNC, is only the little poor blank people don't benefit and I mean blank in the mind not the skin tone. PNM and UNC are not fear in the way they treat the foot soldiers, especially PNM. My eyes are wide open not wide shut. A dreadlocks doesn't make you a rasta sir, didn't you had a bubble bath or something a few months ago.....lol. Strong black men are Malcolm X, Mr.Nelson Mandela, Mr.Partick Manning, Mr.Martin Luther King, sorry not you sir. We are not treated equally people.......TTT I hope you dont delete this one, but if you do I understand because I 2 use to once sing for my supper!
Something is wrong everytime I make a valid contribution its always removed......come on TTT, am I to shut up and dont talk about the government, anyhow you guys have to sing for your supper
Black is beautiful
Yes u r everybody r proud of who we r weather black white cream brown
Come on people get with it
She said "blank".
How dishonest of you to say she said blank. When you know fully well she said BLACK. U all don't fair God hmmmm.
It dont make any sense tho
She said blank and its on the recording. The thing is, the masses in Trinidad are so backward they will believe anything their master Rowley says.
BLANK HIM OUT
@@1daxwood ppl thought it was black even b4 he address it...

This is what a true Israelite get from the haters
All life matters in the eyes of God . The rich not better than the poor .
Good morning Mrs Prime minister thank u for loving our prime minister and by extension loving us thank u both for the many sacrifices u both have endured and sighed up to continously endure may God continue to bless and keep u both .
Indians are black too they they came from black people they need to teach history in schools so people could know the truth
She is drunk for sure
As an American Born Citizen, Why would some 1 call Someone a OREO Cookie, I would not put that Person as a Oreo, I would put that person as a person who Is a, ( Kiwk Shoe Polisher, )that Polishes The Feet of His People of The Nation of T&T…, A person of high Standards & Respect…! 👩🏾⚕️❤️✡️🇺🇸🦋🇹🇹👍
I'm Chinese and proud, I'm East Indian and proud, only a weak low down man would come on TV and tell the world. He knows that they never do anything for humanity.
He only made that comment because Ms Kamala called him a "black man"
Someone please tell that woman that she's a black woman, or better yet give her a mirror. She's black all lighter skinned indians think they're white we're all black.
if he is not a black man well then he is a Chinese steeups
Kamla forget that she is black also
But kamala is east Indian and he is a black man..
They don't refer to themselves as black unless situations like this they wud join,.but in ordinary situations they don't see themselves as black, they support being called Brown in america, Indian in Trinidad and asian in the middle east, they don't like being called black...tnx u
Bruh thats kinda rude
Try saying that to an Indian from India, I heard someone describing a person one day as East Indian in the presence of someone from India, he said I am East indian , that person is a West Indian. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
How brown in America?,when an East Indian man from India was slammed to the ground in Colorado by police in a white neighbourhood because residents said a Blackman is loitering.
We are d people off Trinidad and Tobago are all black one love
But saying oreo she means she is black every one has to be proud of the color is the same red blood indians girl are married to black boys dont teach your children race it leave to them if some one tell me that i will answer them but other wise i dont have any thing to say he has a right to be proud he is not a fool he study the black women & men not only in T&T all over the world has to stop doing stupidness and study but some of them make they self foolish do some thing PM do what you have to do you learn a lot from the 5years so now you know what uou has to do for your country!!
Lots of blessing in the next five years

We are also very that was your your words that you spins it around, we are also proud to be indain
And so you should be! Everybody should be proud of who they are whether back, Chinese, Indian, white or other. Be proud and happy. It is only problematic when you think your race or ethnicity is better, superior to others....that’s a no cause you’re not nor am I.

Ok so if your proud to be BLACK why are u making a big bacchanal about it. U should be even more proud and have nothing to say. And she said BLANK. Apprantly he needs to go back in school and learn over his Vocabulary and Reading Skills. He does what he does. He loves to make bacchanal with the UNC. AND IF ANYONE COMES UP AND TELL ME AM RACIST ABOUT MY COMMENT AM NOT I HAVE BLACK IN ME AND MY SON AND HUSBAND IS BLACK AS WELL. HUMBLE YOURSELF MR. KEITH ROWLEY U FORGET U HAVE A WIFE AND 2 GIRLS'. STOP ATTACKING MISS KAMLA WITH YOUR LITTLE FOOLISH WORDS👏

Kamliar said black man media journalist do ur jobs to confirm u guys too lazy she has racist tendencies some ppl got selective hearing Kamla the wheels of Justice turns slowly
Y he doh talk about when he touched up the woman legs
I would like to comment on the racist madness that is taking place in Trinidad. The history of our country is important to know. The Africans were brought here against their will and enslaved. After the abolition of slavery the East Indians came as indentured labourers because they were looking for a better life than what they were experiencing in the mother country. Please love each other because you both developed the country. And have some empathy for the Venezuelans who are leaving their country to find a better life in Trinidad, just like millions of us from all over the world do when we are unable to live a good life. Love one another and stop being so hateful and ignorant. The colour of your skin is similar just different shades and even that does not determine who you are, your character is what determines who you are. Your religion is supposed to help you be better persons so wake up your consciousness to being good citizens and proud of your country. People all over the world are crying shame on the ugly racist behaviour that is being shown on social media. Stop it!
Mr blankman has done not a blanking thing for this country he’s always blanking us . Blankman blankman blankman ! Blank him out on August 10 .

@Trini2decore Arvado exactly. Its the behavior and attitudes of people that counts and if u read the comments on here you would see people are still emotionally and intellectually enslaved.
