WHY
By Imtiaz Vaid
Imtiaz has just come back to his student digs after an evening out, and he's in shock. A man started following him and shouting racist abuse, then others joined in. It's happened to him before, at home in Blackburn, but he didn't expect it in Leamington. It's so scary and makes you paranoid. He hates racism by black people too. We're supposed to be a civilised society yet we go around hitting people because they happen to be a different colour. Why? It's not fair, and it's getting to him.

Racists have small heads. They hold back society when we should all be putting our energy into benefitting all the world's people.
