I think its been lost in the article, but afro touching really should be a no-no

 

I don’t care if you’re ‘fascinated’ by my afro, stop touching it

OMG. Someone at work asked if I like sushi. I didn't realise they were being racially discriminating. 

I thought they were trying to organise a work's dinner do and trying to decide a menu 🙄

Well I would answer "because I love banana fritters".

I'm  beginning  to wonder if this countrys  gone mad, surely they don't  go off like this in sensible countries.

More boring news not applicable in the real world. Strangely enough I have asked my friend about Plantain before when I saw him cooking it and would you believe it we're still friends! You'll find people generally don't care about people questioning their cultures, in fact a lot of people will enjoy educating you on it. It's if you begin to criticise where it becomes an issue.

According to this I’ve been guilty of/subjected to subtle racism most of my life as I and friends and acquaintances have asked each other about our beliefs, customs and practices. How can  seeking information and understanding be seen as racist? I was once asked why I eat Yorkshire pudding and was stumped!
