Racism and discrimination through Ranomi's eyes
Life is more than just sport
I read on Facebook another beautiful blog of top swimmer Ranomi Kromowidjojo . She's been writing since the coronacrisis, and she's doing pretty well, I have to say. She definitely has something to say.
Life is more than just sports. This is evidenced by her blog about current news. This time no corona news, but she stays in the social spectrum. Her theme this time is 'racism and discrimination'.
Ranomi opens her blog with the observation that the vast majority of people are still not in favour of racism. But saying and doing is and remains two.
Like last time, I use parts of her blog as 'textual images'. I'll lead you through her argument.
Personal story of Ranomi
Although Ranomi does not belong to the Aryan race in both appearance and (rear) name, she had little to no discrimination in her youth. So it can be.
