New Judge - I do take your point about the fact that black people tend to comment on race - as this lady has done, but surely as the minority ethnic group in a society, racism is more likely to apply to her, and other black people.
We must accept that history shows that the huge majority of racist behaviour, attitude, and opinion is delivered by white people against black people. Ergo, black people grow up with a greater sense of what racism means, because to varying degrees, they live with it, and if they are intelligent, and have access to media, they may comment on it.
If history was different, and the white race was in the minority, maybe it would be us who would do the same, but we can only speculate on that because – like black people in a predominantly white society, we have to live with what we find.
I am a white heterosexual male living in a white society, I have virtually no experience of racism. The one incident I did experience, left me feeling very uncomfortable, and although it was over twenty years ago, I have never forgotten it. I was on holiday in Spain, and I went into a shop to buy something. As soon as I opened my mouth and spoke English, the shop owner very deliberately turned her back on me and walked away muttering something obviously unpleasant in Spanish. Another customer advised me that the woman hates the English, and won’t serve them. I felt very shocked, but that was one small instance, but I found being on the receiving end of racism based on nothing more than my race was very unpleasant. That is an attitude that, in varying degrees, racial minorities live with on a daily basis.
