Experiencing your scapegoating first Why i wrote this presentation M a r c h 2 0 1 7 I wrote this presentation, because of my own experiences. I was completely blind-sighted towards their history with the subject racism and couldn’t comprehend nor tolerate how I was treated. They scapegoated me to boast their unity and bonding, such as making fun of my situation, appearance and made up stories. Spreading on social media websites, through that I got unfamiliar people breaking into my PC & mobile, laughing at me or following me on a daily basis. I am legitimate scared that they will do something towards me over 5,10,15 or 20 years, because of their current cultural society construction. My bond towards these people won’t be restored for a long time, because the wounds are too fresh, but not deep enough to change my perspective on racial equality. I have no DNA connection towards these people or other Arabian/Muslim cultures nor do I practice the Muslim belief. In my culture people love to look unique, celebrate with full life&color and most importantly a church, synagogue and musk can stand next to each-other. Recent events (2017) gave me the last breath to speak up & present 2 presentations with only facts & sources. If they would denial this story I don’t care, because possible victims need to known: how they denial things, their pride, condescending & intolerant behavior towards society minorities, mixed races and immoral practices from the past. This is your karma and for those who don’t participate good for you, spread the word of wrong doing and stands up for those in need.
