Title A name given to the resource Letter from Mervyn Dymally to fellow members of congress, 1990 Subject The topic of the resource State Violence Trinidad and Tobago United Nations Jamaat Muslimeen Inequality Dymally, Mervyn M., 1926-2012 Description An account of the resource In a 3 August 1990 congressional statement, Dyamally provides a brief history of the crisis in Trinidad and Tobago, and stressed that there is political and economic instability. An attempt to overthrow the government occurred as the Prime Minister was in the hospital; as a result, the country became a militarized state, and hostages were released into military custody. Dymally argues that the 1970s drop in crude oil prices led to economic instability, and the middle-class emigrated to Canada. Following the disarmament of the insurgents, Dymally stressed the need for medical supplies and food, while stressing that there was no clear leadership and that many feared a military intervention from the United States, like the 1983 intervention in Grenada. Dymally asserts that many Caribbean nations denounced the attempted July coup, and asked that members of Congress appeal for stability in the country, denounce government violence against citizens, and demand no U.S. military intervention.
