I have no idea why some IDIOTS consider a white skin superior to a black or olive skin colour? I suspect Jesus would have experienced racism  due to his olive skin colour if he was around in person in this day and age!  :o

I was horrified when I saw this news item earlier about the terrible racial abuse a black woman soldier experienced! >:(

I think it's problematic that the army is effectively shown here as 'institutionally racist'.
