There have been reports of protest from all over the world after the assassination of black civilian George Floyd in America. People have launched a #BlackLivesMatter campaign opposing the race. Now Bollywood stars have also raised many questions. Meanwhile, actress Malvik Mohanan has also tried to make people aware through long post on social media.
While sharing the post on her Instagram account, Malavika wrote, When I was 14 years old, a close friend of mine told me that her mother did not let her drink, because she believed that drinking tea would turn people into black. goes. Once when he asked me for tea while talking to me, he told him, if you drink tea, you will be black like him.
He was a fair Maharashtrian boy and I was a wheat-skinned jasmine girl. Till then, the color disparity was never seen before me. I was very surprised to hear that this was the first time someone had made such a comment about my skin color. There is so much casual racism and colonialism in our own society. Calling a black skinned person 'black' is something that we see everyday. Discriminatory treatment of South Indians and Northeast Indians is also dangerous.
The actress further wrote, "Dark skinned Indians are jokingly called 'madrasis', because some ignorant people think that South Indians are only dark skinned. The Indians of the North-East are simply called East Chinky, all black people are carelessly called fair negroes.
White people are seen as equally beautiful and dark skinned people as ugly.
When we talk about global racism we should also be aware of what is happening around us, in our homes, in our friendships and in our society. The thing that makes you beautiful is a nice and kind person, not your skin color.
