It's on the news. It's in the papers.
Apparently Shilpa Shetty seems to be the butt of racist remarks on Big Brother, Channel 4, UK.
I been wondering how to react. After all its a game show. Also I've not heard the remarks. Even though they did show snippets from the programme on one of the news channels. But the drone of the reporters voice overrode all the audio bits.
But it does make me angry. For I believe whether black or brown or white or yellow... We are all God's children and born equals.
But in our country where skin whitening creams sell more than anywhere else in the world. Where a fairer child is given more privileges over a darker one. Where being fair means getting a bride or a groom easily. Where being dark skinned means being ridiculed and rejected...
Is it such a bother over Big Brother??
