#arrivalday

On May 5th, 1838, 396 workers arrived in British Guiana (Guyana) from Calcutta, India in order to work in sugar plantations. By the time the indentured system ended in 1920, British Guiana had received 238,909 workers from India. Today their descendants known as Indo-Guyanese comprise 44% of Guyana's population. I celebrate Indian Arrival Day in Guyana because it marks my ancestor's journey to a new world and the cultural impact that they had as workers. I am proud to be Indo-Guyanese 🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾 . . . . . #ArrivalDay #IndianArrivalDay #May5th1838 #fromIndiatoBritishGuiana #indenturedlabourers #Whitby #Hesperus #Berbice #sugarplantation #canecutters #GladstoneCoolies #Guyaneseborn #IndoGuyanese #proudGuyanese #OnePeople #OneNation #OneDestiny https://www.instagram.com/p/B_0ipO4HL2JAp4qIxHygLcvz9JAdmy6Idfq8TA0/?igshid=tt2yyhhsx1b3

I LOVE PRESENTS! #arrivalday #easterbasket #yay!

Romery first met on ArrivalDay on September 17, 2014 when they were both 6 years old. But man they were so cute as kids but even though roman didn’t understand her because she spoke English (he didn’t understand English or speak English yet) he felt she cared a lot about him & vice versa because as he said she was kind when everyone else was cruel. Also because she saved his life & he wouldn’t be alive if it wasn’t for her. That’s why he’s been protective of emery ever since they met. I just knew because of this moment meeting in the shed that they were always destined to be together/soulmates for eternity. Than meeting up 10 years later as teenagers at Marshall High in EdenDale & than coming back to each other again/getting back together in the shed where the first met in 1x13 #Romery #StarCrossed #LittleRoman #LittleEmery #Cuties #romeoandjuliet #Human/Atrian #ArrivalDay

The only part of this is true is that they have always been destined to meet, fall in love, & be together & they were written in the stars because of them meeting when they were kids at 6 years old 🌟 ✨ ⭐️ 😭❤️💕💗😍 But in their case they got a happy ending/got back together in the finale. Even Matt & Aimee saw a reconciliation happening after their first & only break up in 1x10 & that there was always hope for them rekindling their relationship. Also they didn’t die in the end not the unfortunate, doomed, & tragic that Romeo & Juliet had 👏 #Romery #Roman #Emery #starcrossedlovers #Lovers #soulmates #Meanttobe #atrians #Humans #integration #ArrivalDay #september172014

Happy Arrival Day Guyana!!! A national holiday in Guyana, it is celebrated annually on May 5 to commemorate the arrival of indentured immigrants of all races in the country. This day was initially observed as Indian Arrival Day by the Indo-Guyanese community in commemoration of the first Indian emigrants who landed in the then British Guiana aboard the “Whitby” on May 5, 1838. #arrivalofindenturedimmigrants #OnePeopleOneNationOneDestiny #Guyana #mymotherland #mynativeland #Whitby #arrivedinBerbice #May5th1838 #history #neverforgetwhereyoucamefrom #ArrivalDay
