Racism like tribalism is a disease that not only Kenya but the world has been fighting to finish but all is not done. The other day racism allegations against village market's art café arose,supposedly if you are black you can't order for many croissants,reason? You are black.
As the cloud calms on art café yet another racism tale is emerging not outside but in Kenya at the coastal town in Mombasa. A group of Kenyans from Nairobi who had travelled there and opted to stay at Leopards Beach Resort And Spa in Diani were denied access reason being they were TOO BLACK for their preference.
The group Chilli Mango Kenya narrated their ordeal,
We've been refused entry to Leopard Beach Resort & Spa, Diani for being too black. #KenyaAt50
We were only allowed entry after being grilled by the head of security & after making a call to complain. We left anyway
Efforts to reach the hotel to comment on the matter has been met with silence,the revelation has caused an outrage on twitter. Racism in the Kenyan land.
that's realtor stupid
ReplyDelete*The Artcafé incident was at Westgate, not Village Market.
ReplyDeleteIts sad to know that racism still persists in 21st century. But there are many other good resorts in Kenya like Diani Spa Resort Kenya where all are welcome to enjoy the services.
