English Footballers asked about the traumatic impact of racial abuse, their answers were sobering... 🧵


It was a disappointing outcome for the England team at the Euro 2024 but we knew the consequences that the Black & Brown players in the team would suffer...

...if the team lost and this was manifested again in the form of racial abuse online which was a repeat when Marcus, Jason & Bukayo missed their penalties in the 2020 Euros and is still fresh in people's minds.

Despite football players receiving support from their fans, the harsh reality is that racism in football still exists, examples include newspapers recently using images of Bukayo Saka's face following England's defeat against Iceland & when an England fan was convicted...

NEW MUMS REPORT RACISM IN HOSPITAL, SAYS MATERNITY LEAD

Nottingham Uni. Hospital's maternity services accused of "countless" examples of racist and discriminatory behaviour perpetuated by staff against new mums.

A personal perspective by @inthecloset

bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
1,813 stillbirths, deaths of mothers or babies, or instances of harm are being scrutinised, with a further 70 referred.

These numbers contribute to the woeful statistics for racial disparities in maternal and child health in the UK
2/
theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Shocking incidents in the report include a newly bereaved mother whose accent was mocked by hospital staff, and a new mum who had bedding thrown at her after she asked for soiled bedding to be changed.

There is nothing that can excuse this.

US REPUBLICAN HOUSE REWROTE LAW TO DEFINE ANTI-ZIONISM AS ANTISEMITISM

A personal perspective by @ThatAsianDude_

This move has been highly criticised by pro-Palestinian activists for its specific suppressive impact on commentary on the ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
1/ Image
Voted in as law this week, it also represents the final nail in the coffin of the West dictating their version of antisemitism and defining what is/isn't racism for the world.

The US has declared it, the UK will follow, and so will the rest of Europe.

The problem is the West has once again (wrongly) determined what constitutes racism without reference to the people most affected by it. Unfortunately without unity, the global South hasn't been able to combat this, in terms of defining the parameters of racism for ourselves.

CHILD ASYLUM SEEKERS ARE BEING PLACED WITH ADULT STRANGERS

There is something incredibly sinister about Suella Braverman, whose cult leader was accused of sex abuse and whose party is mired in decades of cover ups of child sex abuse by politicians, claiming that adults...

...refugees are posing as children, when the fact is that border officials are putting their ages down as 5-10 yrs older than they actually are. This has meant that children are being forced to share bedrooms with strangers who are much older than them.

These hotel rooms used to be single occupancy but they are now to be shared by two people per room. Just recently we reported on the first wave of Afghan refugees arriving in the UK from Pakistan. The government changed its pledge to provide 'suitable accommodation' and...
