OPINION
Say 'no' to a PLP that uses race to dodge controversy
Bryant Trew on Friday: "Empowerment through an OBA Government seems possible, but only if we hold them accountable... Ring the bell, get off the bus and vote OBA."
OBA not only won, but doused old UBP/PLP hostilities

It's your duty to hold the OBA accountable
Christopher Famous: The OBA said they will be more accountable to the people of Bermuda. So let’s take a look at some of the things they must be held accountable for.
The segregated Bermuda I grew up in has changed
Larry Burchall: Throughout Bermuda, visible yet invisible, there is a large group of black unblack Bermudians. Bermudians who, when they look in their mirrors, see a person whose epidermis may range from ebony to imperceptible tan.
The PLP is busy regrouping
Christopher Famous: The shock and anguish among PLP supporters at losing the General Election has evolved into a collective call to arms.
