some reflections about racism/xenophobia
[Question]
26 03,2019
hi dudes, i got very pissed off about something today, so i'm going to make some topics to make my thoughts organized and brief.
•brazil is a big mix of races all bc of the colonization shit (the europeans raped our natives and the black women who were slaves here), so it's impossible to define a characteristic of a brazillian person.
•because of that, it's common to tell "what a person are" by the color of their skin, and not by where they came from (ethnically). it's a pretty shitty method.
•today i saw some ppl discussing on twitter if zayn from oned is white or not: some saying he isn't, bc he has pakistani ancestry and others saying he is white bc he has light skin and bc "he doesn't look like a pakistani and was born in england".
•so does it means a black woman, who is sure where she came from but is born lighter skinned, is automatically less black than the others born with darker skin? and what if a white girl fucking burns her skin with tan and shows off her toasted ass, it makes her less white just bc her skin is darker? IT'S LITERALLY WHAT THAT GIRL WAS SAYING.
•this doesn't make sense. this kind of ppl don't realize how fucking racist they're being, they don't have a single bit of empathy, they don't even put themselves in other people's shoes but have the courage to say shit like this. they're literally judging a book by its cover.
idk if i was clear and if it makes sense, i don't even know if i'm right, but now i want to know your point of view. is your country racist and xenophobic like this too or it has a remaining of hope? tell me about any experiences please, i'm very curious about others perspectives and opinions.
