Baytoram Ramharack brings together an impressive two decades of archival research, transnational government and media document recovery, eyewitness accounts and oral testimonies, and legal and philosophical arguments to craft a gripping and sorrowful postcolonial narrative of trauma, memory, and loss that argues convincingly for the human rights framework of ethnic cleansing of Indo-Guyanese Wismar villagers in 1964. With a commendable focus on the voices of victims, especially women, this meticulously researched historiographic work calls for the un-silencing of silenced history and ultimately for clear-eyed examinations of the Guyanese past and the complex social, economic, cultural, and political relationships between Indo- and Afro-Guyanese, in the hopes of national healing.
