“Remembering Our Leaders” 
A copper etching of Dr. Cheddi Jagan and Dr. Walter 
Rodney, two essential figures in the history of Guyana 
and the Caribbean. How have they as historical figures 
shaped the contemporary Caribbean landscape? What 
role does this history play in the diaspora? In the 
diaspora, certain histories are excluded from our 
everyday life; this etching attempts to look at the process 
of remembering one's history.
