At some point in our lives we were all victims of racism or discrimination.
People with Disabilities, mental illnesses and different races often suffer from those ignorant people who don’t know anything about other peoples’ situations.There is no need to pay too much attention to their comments unless there is physical abuse involved. It is also very important to report those kind of situations as soon as possible. Because who gives those people the right to make fun of you just because you are different.
You achieved so much in life, you are a wonderful person and the one who makes someone’s life worth living. I guarantee you that those who choose to bully others, haven’t done much with their lives. They think the country belongs to them, but it definitely doesn’t.
Sadly this happened to me the other day for the first time in 12 years living in the UK. Someone told me to go back to my own country. I reported it, but in my situation, no one wanted to step it. Why? Because the government is allowing people to do so by promoting Brexit and all this hate people have towards each other.
I personally never treated people differently. I don’t care what color you are, what disabilities you have or what traditions you follow. We are all the same as humans, we have same blood and organs in our bodies, the only thing which makes us different is our appearances. Many people I know are so amazing, I don’t think we would get along if they weren’t different.
None of us should put up with this hate and ignorance.
If any of you experience or witness anything like this, don’t be afraid to step in. Assist the individual by recording the incident, this will help speed up the investigation.
We need to speak up, because many more situations will occur in the future.
Let’s make peace, not war.
He’ll yeah, it’s not the 1800’s anymore! Good stuff

Well said!!! I have written a page on the true story of our families life in Liverpool after coming over from Europe to the UK in 1980. We as a family suffered the worse violent racism you can imagine. In short we were at war and had no help from the Police or authorities. I moved away from Liverpool as soon as I could afford to. Shortly after I moved my parents were attacked in their home by masked men- CS gas sprayed in my fathers face (he was 75) and my mother punched to the bottom of the stairs (at 75 years of age) and soon after got cancer (maybe the stress of the attack- who knows). Anyway, from what I recently witnessed- nothing has changed since the 80s in Liverpool- if you want to see more about Liverpool I have put some videos and info up on my page. Please be warned as some of the videos are graphic (I am posting more videos soon)! If you are planning to visit Liverpool and are of foreign (noticeable) descent- my advice is stay well away! By the way myself, three brothers and sister were all born in London- we went to Europe for a few years and returned (slightly darker due to the European sun) to live in Liverpool with our European parent’s- the violence started almost immediately with a brick thrown at my sister while in her pushchair (she was two at the time) followed by the family car being destroyed by petrol outside our home and then all out war. Forty years we thought- you will never win because in Liverpool racism is a pandemic and built into the roots of the “Capital of Racism”.
