RE: RACISM : AN INTRODUCTION - WHAT A STUPID IDEA

in #racism7 years ago (edited)

You should remind Russian bigots that Alexander Pushkin, the father of modern Russian literature, was the great-grandson of an Ethiopian prince adopted by Peter the Great (the grandfather received an excellent education and military training: he later became a Russian general).
Pushkin was proud of his African heritage (he had noticeably dark skin), and you should be, too.

I am proud of course of my self and everybody know that I am Algerian, my skin color is white and I look like Russian, but when people know my name they change, so racism is not related to skin color or apparence, it's something inside people.

I think it's a negative energy that they can't control, racists are sick people !
