On this episode of GYaff with G.O.L.D.R.U.S.H., Sherida and Afia catch up about Republic Day (Mashramani) in Guyana and discuss their lives as Guyanese living in America.

In this conversation, the hosts are faced with the reality that anti-immigrant sentiments, xenophobia, and heightened deportation measures have become the norm in America.

G.O.L.D.R.U.S.H. encourages all of its listeners and everyone in the community to be wary of their surroundings, refrain from being in environments or engaging in behaviors that might invite unnecessary police interest. Now more than ever, knowing, supporting and caring for your neighbor or your fellow community member is critical, and could mean the difference between failure and success, and even life and death.
