Black man walking with Swiss wife makes 'random white supremacist' wish he never used the N-word

A black man from Los Angeles reportedly had a confrontation with a “random white supremacist” in Switzerland.

Tariq Nasheed of Foundational Black America shared video of the incident on Twitter.

According to Nasheed, the black man in the video is from Los Angeles but now lives in Switzerland.

“A Black man from Los Angles who now lives in Switzerland, was walking with his Swiss wife, and a random white supremacist passed by a called him the N-word,” Nasheed wrote. “And the Black man checked him on it.”

In the video, a white man is said to have used the N-word, prompting the black man to defend himself.

No-one should be hanged, but...



.....people need to realise at the same time that if you are explicit or complacent in this outrage, justice will be served, if not now then later.

Perilous Populist Players with Democracy

THIS:



INEVITABLY LEADS TO MORE OF THIS:



The Liberal Order MUST Stand
BUT there is nothing to say that democracy will survive, just cause.
We need to fight for it. Fight with everything we have across the West before right wing populists plunge us into a place that will take generations to recover from.
At the beginning on WW2 there were only 11 democracies in the world. Populists would see us go back there and we all know what happened next.... Disruptors are always going to try and disrupt.

This Reheated Jingoism Is Pathetic



David Lammy is spot on

It is ridiculous.... this is not world war 2 and we are not at war with the Germans or anyone else. God help us with these right wing wankers in charge....

Christine Lagarde's face while Ivanka Trump tries to speak to world leaders at G20 says it all...

Everyone knows one of president Trump's favourite activities is bringing his daughter Ivanka along to literally everything, despite the fact that she has no experience in diplomacy whatsoever.

And just like that, Trump also brought Ivanka along to the G20 Summit in Osaka, Japan, where she tried to mingle among the big shots and well, let's just say things got pretty awkward, very fast.

One moment in particular, which will most likely go down as the most toe-curlingly awkward exchange in G20 history, is Ivanka trying to get involved in a talk with Theresa May, Justin Trudeau, Emmanuel Macron, and IMF head Christine Lagarde. Yes, really.

The moment, which is now trending on social media, shows Lagarde rolling her eyes while Ivanka tries to get a word in and if that doesn't make you want to sink into a hole in the ground and never come back, then we don't know what will.
