  • It’s been dubbed “the murder that changed a nation”. In 1993, Stephen Lawrence, a Black British teenager, became the victim of an unprovoked racist attack. The subsequent legal battle, which spanned more than 20 years, uncovered a legacy of institutional racism within the Metropolitan Police, leaving a lasting mark on the British conscience.

Racism looks to be in all institutions in UK.

    • @Blackjax137
      @Blackjax137 3 года назад +20

      Yup, heard of this Rashmi Samant case because it gained a lot of traction within India. Interestingly enough, not a single mainstream UK news outlet picked the story up (for rather obvious reasons that will become apparent) though many independents did. Exceptionally bright foreign student won a place at Oxford for her work and study on climate change at Manipal Institute of Technology in India, and in two years won an overwhelming majority of the vote to become the President of the Oxford Student Union.
      She was then forced to resign two days after becoming President by relentless cyberbullying by racist and Hinduphobic students online. Unironically, they claimed to be offended and on the side of 'social justice' by trawling through years of her social media presence and taking comments she made out of context, or 'in jokes' between her and her friends from when she had a much smaller online presence. Not even her parents were spared the abuse, and were even doxxed by a member of Oxford's faculty.
      This is why mainstream outlets in the UK has refused to cover the story, while India, Indian MEPs and ambassadors have been going hard on the UK government to act. Who do they side with? Students claiming to be proponents of "social justice" making racially charged and phobic attacks online? Or the young Hindu woman, 1st generation immigrant and a first for the Oxford Student Union being attacked online and who has been pressured to resign merely two days after? Not one of them wants to invoke the wrath of these warriors or further defame a minority woman and invoke the wrath of India. And not one of them had the balls to cover the story removed from politics, in a strictly moderate way, because objective fact-based journalism doesn't exist in the UK. Tabloid hysteria sells headlines and brings in clicks.
      Personally, I find the University of Oxford's doubling down and the media's hear no evil/see no evil, ignorance is bliss stance to be absolutely appalling.

      Nah I think it's because people who live in the UK only ever see racism on programs like this, none of us experience it on a day to day basis like the media make out. People with common sense tend to believe what they see with their own eyes in their own towns and not what the mainstream regurgitates. Out of 70 million people your bound to find a few instances of racism... So the media will more than likely always have something to report on. Have a look at South Africa at the minute if you want to see real racism. I know a few that have had family members killed over there. How many people do you know in this country personally that have had family members murdered because of race?

    My parents who are both surgeons moved us from Kurdistan in Iraq to the UK when I was 13 years old. Unlike my two sisters who were kindergarten age, I'd moved to the UK at an age where I had knowledge of my identity, culture, history of Iraq, and had also grown up in an education system that required us to learn Arabic. But despite us Kurds being oppressed and having fought against British and American puppets for over a century, I became a pariah in the secondary school I was enlisted. The year was 1996 and back then, I was pretty much the only foreign kid in my entire year. The school was in the heart of Kent, only contained a couple of black kids, one Turkish kid who was born and bred in the UK and 1-2 kids who were 2nd / 3rd generation from the subcontinent. It didn't take me long to pick up English, but that only made things worse. Looking back, I know the racism was taught to the kids by their parents. They'd gone home, told the parents that a kid from Iraq was in their school and well, so started a year and a half of absolute torment. I somehow felt that these people must represent British society because there really wasn't one kid who didn't join in with the racism. Be it the colour of my skin, where I'd come from, what I brought with me for lunch: everything would be picked on. Many a time during school PE, I would be jumped on by 5-6 kids when playing rugby. They'd kick, punch, hurl abuse and just act in the most hooligan and backward manner imaginable. Not one teacher ever stood up and tried to stop it. I used to tell my parents, but having grown up in Iraq with kids of Arab, Turkmen, Christian and Kurdish backgrounds, they refused to believe what I was telling them. I was a pretty easy-going kid, but that experience really made me develop a temper, and also a sense of distrust even in people who are supposed to protect and help you. Just short of 2 years, both of my parents were offered medical research jobs in Italy and we quickly moved. It saved my teenage years. I went to the UK as an innocent kid and left knowing what racism was and is.

    Feelings of superiority are directly related to conquering and dominating others. It is part of the human condition.

This is transalated into societal organisation and law, because the ruling class of course wants to consolidate power.
    As such, white supremacy and institutionalised racism are direct descendants of colonialism. It is to the present time and future generations, to - with this hindsight, changing demographics and perceptions of the world - dismantle the remnants of history. At the least this will create a level playing ground for all citizens and hopefully in time also change more minds, eradicating as much racist beliefs as possible. Humanity must grow to survive...

      Is your view "better" based upon objective findings, or approved virtue signalling?
      You're aware are you not, that even babies and young _toddlers,_ demonstrate an instinctive preference toward those who look like their parents (ie skin colour)?
      Are *they* to be next in line for criticism as well?
      What about natives in their own homelands who reject immigration based upon the incompatibility of cultural (and sometimes environmental) attributes?
      What about overseas travellers who tend to gravitate toward those of their own ethnic persuasion?
      It's effortlessly simple to relate to someone [that your subconscious expectations of] match up to what you imagine you will feel comfortable with.
      The word "racist" (perhaps unwittingly by your own definition) is therefore nonsense, because you can't be against your own _race_ (the *human* race), but you CAN tend to subconsciously gravitate toward those you rely on something to be able to feel comfortable with.
      It seems quite an inescapable conclusion, to suggest that EVERYONE in life who ever developed a bond [with someone of the same skin colour and trusted them to be able to sustain themselves], will tend to prefer being around people who look the same as them.
      As for white "supremacy", defending the relevance of one's own identity (or in this case, _group_ identity), can be used to portray them negatively, particularly if there [happens to be, or is set up to be] a "disadvantaged" minority individual in the picture.
      It can be made to appear as if "5 against 1" is happening, based on (what is represented as) skin colour.
      As for the Stephen Lawrence case, A LOT of unanswered questions - particularly surrounding the recently "discovered" woman's handbag strap at the scene that was apparently "lost" in evidence for over twenty years.
      That - along with the simultaneous suggestion, that five young men, began *frantically* pursuing one man at the EXACT same instant in time, where part of an unidentified woman's handbag was "found" - without a word being spoken?!?
      It appears to smack of agenda - an agenda to promote (what can almost certainly only ever be) a false cohesiveness between different ethnic groups in the same place, consequently leading to identity displacement, based upon my earlier remarks about babies and toddlers.
