I’ve been on a break from the news 🗞️ , and just heard what’s happening yesterday and it’s sickening…
I’m so sorry you’re going through this, Uma 🩷
I’ve just forwarded this to my hubby (also mixed race, half Indian-half Icelandic, grew up in Cambridge) and he related with everything you wrote.
I have to say, one of the reasons I couldn’t cope with Brighton and only lasted six months before we planned to move again (even though we had actually bought a house 😳), was racism. And I’m white… it was the screwing of their faces when they heard my accent (people in shops, usually driving in Brighton to work from the villages, etc) mostly.
Can I tempt you to move back to lovely London…? Xxxx lots of love xxxx
Emma - I really appreciate your thoughts on this. Mine are still all over the shop. Take care. X
