A couple weeks back Mr. John Marquis wrote about an interview with Mr. Chauncey Tynes Sr. and allegations about Sir Lynden Pindling, the so called Father of the Nation.
The Insight article has sparked controversy among supporters of the PLP who suggest that Mr. Marquis should not be writing these things about Sir Lynden, particularly as he is a foreigner.
All this lead to a protest by Mr. Paul Moss and Mr. Ricardo Smith outside the offices of The Tribune where Mr. Lincoln Bain of Controversy TV interviewed the two of them and several "protesters".
As The Tribune keeps reminding us, they report the news, they don't make it.
But it's a shame that today, some 51 years after majority rule, colour or racism is such a big issue in the minds of so many of us.
Mr. Tynes is a Bahamian, and former associate of Sir. Lynden Pindling's, so the colour of Mr. Marquis skin, or where he comes from is irrelevant. It is up to us to decide the validity of Mr. Tynes statements or not.
Unfortunately a few of our politicians continue to make symbolism over substance their modus operandi.
It's a pity.
