To be worried about the apparent acceptance of racism

I'm of indian heritage but born and raised in the UK and married to my white British husband. We have 3 children and I'm worried about racism towards them. I have had racism directed towards me when younger but it seemed to be getting better but now I'm being sucked into the rabbit hole of flags and alternative messages and people having p**i (edited by MNHQ) etc shouted at them by school children. I've always promoted how accepted we are and how this is our home and I feel so anxious and upset. I don't know what I'm expecting just feel sad overall.

I think you should focus on what you’re actually seeing in real life, vs what is apparently happening online…

I find online there is all sorts of hysteria (particularly on Twitter) which doesn’t seem to translate into real life.
