On racism

Whether it’s the methanol poisoning from your illicit brew or the seasons of the year that signify God’s presence, the end is in sight.

Everybody is entitled to their opinion. Some opinions matter, others don’t. Some opinions are influential while others aren’t. Extreme caution should be taken though, by those who seem to have a say on global matters.

Then I remember my last trip to Russia and the number of people who happened to be claustrophobic while standing next to me in the elevator. Or agoraphobic as I shopped for groceries at the supermarket.
Was I supposed to feel offended and attack them back?, NO!. I learnt to ignore the stares, learnt to live the quiet life because in my mind that did not equate to real racism.

Even as I offer my humble opinion, some may try and shoot the messenger. Yes, indeed, even though everyone is entitled to their own opinion, what really constitutes racism?. True racism is when people around the world fail to appreciate your point of view, accept the you see the world or fail to give you the chance to deliberate important issues.

Prove me wrong

That's pity on what you on about!
Even a white man on an elevator full of black people will get those stares!
To understand racism and to feel it, you need to live in the white man society with all the rights and laws of lands equals to a white man....
That is when you start understand there is something different about yourself that they see you through their eyes, and their mentality towards you....
This is not when you even start talking about institutional racism that embedded into white peoples way of life.....
You will be living a life of fighting for every battle on a very menial things that should be entitled to you as basic human needs....

Aiseeeeeee
