Since the vote for Brexit, it has been reported that racial abuse in the UK is on the rise, but is there really racism in the UK?

Battabox presenter Maria hits the streets of London to find out what the public thinks of racism in the UK.

“There is racism in the UK but its discrete,” says one lady

“You can’t get away with racism in the UK,”

According to one lady, white people are not the only racist people, “Nowadays racism is coming from all races,” she says “Black, Indians, Asians,” she continues

Although some people disagree to the fact that racism does exist in the UK.

“Living in London, i haven’t seen racism,” says one guy

    Racism is a SYSTEM that benefits white people through power and privilege.
    A system called White Supremacy. it’s not emotional based, though emotion
    does play part, it’s systematically based meaning whether a white person
    likes you or not, or are kind to you or not, it doesn’t take away the fact
    that they are racist.

    White privilege is what keeps racism alive, that’s why your average white
    person DENIES this privilege. This is a system that hates black skin. A
    system that survives on anti-blackness. Other races can be racist too
    because they somewhat benefit from this system since they are not black,
    but not to the extent of whites because whites own this system therefore
    are the most racist. Black people are the only race that cannot be racist
    because the system is designed to be anti-black. A white person who calls
    you the N word and a white person who buys you a Ferrari are equally
    racists. Neither one is any more racist or less. It’s just the other one is
    honest about it.

    Until Black people start looking at white people as our enemies we are not
    going to move forward. Your average black person today doesn’t care, loves
    white people too much and they have no pride in being black at all. Many of
    us have accepted defeat. But l refuse to accept any defeat from White
    Supremacy. I refuse!

    l look at white people and l see my enemies. l don’t even hate them because
    they are not worth my time and energy. They’re irrelevant to me. I don’t
    hate anybody but l have studied my enemies and l know them inside and out.
    I choose to look at the world with African eyes and not European. Black
    Power!

    Your average black person in England today loves to call themselves ‘Black
    British’. Do you know the British Empire’s history in Africa? Are you aware
    of the evil acts they committed? To identify yourself as British is an
    insult to all the innocent Africans who died at the hands of British
    Empire. Black people, we need to know our history. Cmon

    Racism is everywhere, comes from every race/ethnicity and its victims are
    every race/ethnicity.
