“What we cannot do is be racist and assume that someone is going to be X Y and Z because of where they came from”
This has made my point. I can’t question Afghani men who are over represented in the rape statistics per capita because I’d be deemed racist even though data backs it up. I can’t question the way the Pakistani grooming gangs operate in a certain manner vs their British counterparts because it’s racist as it’s a certain culture from a certain area of Pakistan. I can’t question the violence of certain men because they will be predominantly one skin colour even if that culture or country is over represented in data.
So this has absolutely made my point, I cannot question where someone comes from if that place has a predominant skin colour. Maybe it’s not racism to notice patterns of behaviour. Maybe it’s cultural observation?
Because funnily enough white Albanian men are over represented in serious drug crime vs white British men.
This observational technique works in reverse. We’ve seen in the maternity scandal reviews that black women are more likely to suffer during childbirth so we’re working to address that. We’ve seen that prostate screening is going to be offered to more black men vs white men due to current diagnosis rates. So it’s funny how ‘racism’ only works when someone doesn’t like the data isn’t it?
