<P>>From: Saikou Samateh</P>
<P>"A very sad story indeed.Such have been a great
problem in the Badibus"</P>
<P>this problem is not only great in the badibus but
affects over 70% of gambians influence by
this oppressive ,anacronisticand shameless
mindset for many centuries.this is a national
and regional problem that must must be given the
utmost concederation since the dominant language
groups -mandiga, fulla, wollof, sarahule etc are
all greatly affected by this caste mindset </P>
<P>,"this is not the first time and Mr Wally who is
living to defy such nonsense not only in his home
village but in other areas too should have been
treated with respect and not to be humiliated by
deportation."</P>
<P>the struggle carried out by the honourable WALLY is
beeing carried out silently and openly in many parts
of thr gambia and in the diaspora.the question is why
is it that the struggle against an oppressive
social and cultural caste system impossed by a
historically obsolate parasitic self declared
upper caste minority still remains defeated?</P>
<P>"Did we not travel to SA demanding for reparation ?
and then we entertain such nonsense among our
selves",</P>
<P>Is the caste mindset not similar to south african
aparthied minset?this nonsense of the caste system
affecting the majority of gambians is a nonsense of
long historic duration similar to the centuries of
local colaboration with the slave raiding wars and
trade with the berbers,arabs and europeans and
presently similar to the entertaiment of
oppressive political nonsenses since 1965 .how can we
explain the entertainment of such nonsense by
the majority of the people?</P>
<P>I have my very doubts if Mr commissioner will do
anything in this case since February is just around
the corner.</P>
<P>yes,your doubts are warranted.the caste sysem is
complex intertwined and cemented in the present
traditions cultures and mindset of most
gambians. the commissioners and the state he
represents do not have the competence nor
insterest to deal with such problems,we can only
expect superficial arangements that suits their
temporal political agenda in the area,</P>
<P>we need to qualitatively accelarate the review
of the principal history of the experience of
our peoples resistance in all areas of human
activity with a sole motive to chart a strategic
and tactical direction that mobolise the majority
of the oppressed masses to cast aways all yokes and
reconstructure a new gambian society without caste
discrimination,dignified and properous</P>
<P>Only a true cultural revolutionary movement guided
by a truely modern african cultural revolutionary
theory link with the practices of the
known and unknown wallys can solve the caste
problem.</P></div><br clear=all><hr>Send and receive
