Yes absolutely, and a crucial difference between difference forms of discrimination is the unequal distribution of power and resources.Or you could just be born a Muslim but brought up in a Hindu part of India, or born a Catholic and brought up in a Protestant area of Belfast, or born in England an brought up in Scotland. Bigotry and intolerance aren't confined to racial groups, but can be overcome if people learn to set aside their differences and talk to each other. We are often more alike than we are different
Well, just how much powed and influence dies a white working class kid have? I'll tell you something, when it's you or your brother being given a pasting, there is no "crucial difference". Just more fists and boots than you have.Yes absolutely, and a crucial difference between difference forms of discrimination is the unequal distribution of power and resources.
Any link to this supposed story?The Senegal team did't seem to be very racially diverse either, huge outcry a while back when the england women fielded an all white squad - it was deemed racist
Quite a few English, Welsh, Scottish, French, etc, flags painted on faces.Quite a few of the Senegal fans have white face makeup.
How is that not considered racist?

True, but it's the motivation for the discrimination that matters.Well, just how much powed and influence dies a white working class kid have? I'll tell you something, when it's you or your brother being given a pasting, there is no "crucial difference". Just more fists and boots than you have.
or somehow suggesting asking someone where they are from is racist - just crazySuch a stupid idiotic question!
It's like suggesting eye mascara is somehow racist.
Fair enough.or somehow suggesting asking someone where they are from is racist - just crazy
I can't fin any BBC reporter saying similar about the Senegal team!
You're very much aware that it wasn't a simple question of asking where someone was from. It was the persistent disregard for their answers.or somehow suggesting asking someone where they are from is racist - just crazy
You said:I can't fin any BBC reporter saying similar about the Senegal team!
As I thought, you deliberately twisted the story to suit your narrative of Senegal being racist because they fielded an all black team.The Senegal team did't seem to be very racially diverse either, huge outcry a while back when the england women fielded an all white squad - it was deemed racist
Just 8% of Senegal's population are white.Fair enough.
Maybe the lack of diversity in Senegal's team points to the lack of French migration to their former colony.
Like i said, "n'owt to do wi' us".Just 8% of Senegal's population are white.
Or that the smaller minority of Senegal's white population do not want to participate in football.
How many footballers come from wealthy backgrounds?
You can't find anyone asking any of the Senegal team, where they are from?or somehow suggesting asking someone where they are from is racist - just crazy
I can't fin any BBC reporter saying similar about the Senegal team!
How many were born there?Just 8% of Senegal's population are white.
Irrelevant really. Whether it's to wi' us, or not doesn't come into it, We're discussing an academic subject.Like i said, "n'owt to do wi' us".
I don't suppose that Senegal's selectors are racist. It's just a silly and false allegation by Munroast.If Senegal ever find their 'Maradona' and he turns out to be white do you think they won't pick him for the team?
