"Slavery was not genocide, otherwise there wouldn't be so many damn blacks in Africa or in Britain would there?"
David Starkey, one of the most widely known popular 'historians' in the UK who has been a regular fixture on TV and other media for decades.
Black people in this country are stopped & searched for drugs at 9x the rate of white people. Asian people are stopped & searched for drugs at 3x the rate of white people.
Makes sense, right? Communities of colour just use illicit substances more than others.
Eh, not really.

In a former life, when I thought you cd politely persuade people not to be racist
Their response? "If you don't like it here, LEAVE". Which I'm yet to hear said to a white British person
Racism is telling black people who have a critique of their own country, they should leave
funny how all these wannabe hooligans are outraged at all these protests against racism because of violence etc but were all for it when tommy robinson got locked up, priorities🤣
"If you can only be tall because somebody is on their knees, then you have a serious problem” - the words of the late, great Toni Morrison. Racism is an evil that none of our societies can claim to be immune from. But we must stand against & eradicate it.
