RE: Ladies of Hive Community Contest #144 - Dealing with Racial Injustice

in Ladies of Hive10 months ago

Travel, most educational, stand up for your rights always. Reminds me of when we went to Europe in 1978 by train travel using Youth Hostels, second year of marriage to see the world.

Two countries out of the many we visited deemed it fit to place people within building at different levels, being African we were segregated into such a section basement, at the height of anti-apartheid rallies we fully anticipated some push back. Actually they did us a favour, we had time to speak to Africans from different countries, tribes, walks of life, compared how each lived, discussing into the early morning being together able to talk freely.

Back home we had Black, Indian and Coloured friends although we could not meet within homes, we made plans and learned a lot about what was happening within our own country due to censorship of media. On arrival back related the adventures having some laughing till they cried, yes we learned very quickly there are some very strange thinking people out there...

In this day if that stunt was presented I too would tell the Management off in front of everyone, well done, there is no room left in the world for this type of behaviour from anyone, irrespective the skin tone!

It is crazy and it still happens though very subtly. Yes but something like you when these things happened to me 20 years back I stayed quiet and took the shit, making low on my own self-esteem, but as you say times have changed and push back is required if these things happen now.
Love to you my dear
