Easy not to see colour when your colour is the majority. When I was in China, I absolutely saw myself as white, because that's how I was treated.

That's fair. Treated white how?
That's not been my experience in China although I've only been there twice on a couple of business trips and didn't really interact with locals other than colleagues. Never had an issue in India either. Obviously you get people trying to rip you off because you're not a local but you'll get that in Europe too.
And I'd suggest in the UK a lot of people are treated differently because of their nationality even if they're white.
Which I'm not saying is OK but it's not all about race, and not every misfortune that befalls a "person of colour" is because of their race either.
Also. The ongoing protests...what are they protesting about?
Is their point that racism is bad?
I mean, yeah. Agreed. But what laws do you want changed? Aren't there already laws against discrimination?
If they're hoping for attitude change then do they think people with racist views will suddenly think "hey, they're right, i should stop being racist!"
I'm not clear what they're protesting for. What are they trying to change and how do they think protesting will bring about that change?
They're protesting against a system that never punishes the injustices against them or enforces the legislation you speak of
they want the next disciplinary tirbunal / judge etc to remember what happens if black people are on the wrong end of biased decisions again and again
But the policeman has been sacked, arrested and charged.
I do shudder to think what will happen if he's acquitted.
Was supporting Blacks Out Tuesday yesterday but it was ruined by a bunch of cunts who were going on about that bloke in the news.
