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.

See my previous post. @Lighttheway most likely did lose her job due to racism- her own racism, that is.

I am saddened to read this. It is an unfortunate reality that black Britons are over represented in the mental health system due both socioeconomic factors and the experience of prejudice, discrimination, and racism.

If your observations are correct, and this was an episode, I hope that Lighttheway follows through on the therapy that she mentioned in her post.
