migrational background « Thread Started on Feb 10, 2008, 1:08pm »
Hi, my name is Susanna, I am a 37 years old "person with migrational background" from Germany. A "person with migrational background" is a holder of a German passport with one white/Christian/German and one non-German parent - but noone with a white non-German parent gets ever labelled "person with migrational background". (People with no white/Christian/German parent are "migrants", even if their parents were born in Germany. The terminology is used to separate Germans whose origin is Turkish or Arab from "true", e.g. white Germans.). My mother is white/Christian/German, and my father is Israeli/ Sephardi. I avoid the term "mizrahi", because the term has been invented in Israel to divide Sephardim from Chrisian countries (Greece, Bulgaria) and Sephardim from Muslim countries. I also avoid the term "mizrahi" because nobody believes me that my father is from Bulgaria - I look like I am from North African origin, and leaving out the word "mizrahi" spares me a lot of suspicions and awful feelings of helplessness. Unlike you, Lisa, I cannot pass for white, and since my parents were never married and hardly anybody here knows my father, people like to think that I want to "white myself up" by claiming to be of Bulgarian/Israeli origin instead of Maghreb or African-American origin, which seems to be so much more likely to them. German Jewish culture is exclusively Ashkenasi. There is a tiny Sephardi community in Berlin, but it has absolutely no influence on how Jews are percepted. I used to feel that I am squeezed between the various forms of racism: To the Germans I am the quoted above "person with migrational background", which is anything but German, to the Jews I am the half-Shiksah, which is worse than being a Shiksah, and to the German Muslims I am the Jew - that is, the person who supposedly grew up in the racism-free paradise that Jews are allegedly wrapped in these days. I didn't need to expect solidarity from any of these groups. I was always the wrong one. I read your story, Lisa, in the book "Colonize This!". You wrote that your father percepted you, your sister, and your mother as exclusively Jewish, but on the other hand, you were abandoned by your own paternal family when your parents got divorced. I never converted to Judaism, although I felt that I was expected to. I wanted to have equal rights, not only equal duties, and I knew that converting to Judaism would not get me any closer to inner-Jewish solidarity. I read with sorrow that you feel responsible for Zionist racism, when in fact you are one of its victims. My Israeli family calls me "Jewish", too - because they want me to share their burden. When it comes to equal rights, I get labelled with all the racist stereotypes of being a whiner, a looser who blames her failure on society instead of on herself. Recently, I have started denying my father, and since I have lost contact with all my paternal family for stopping to make nice and speaking out, I have a much easier time now. There are many "persons with migrational background" in Germany who do not know their fathers, and I am one of them, part of a larger group, for a change. I do not want to suggest this "solution" to any of you. I am glad I found your website, and I wish you all the success you dream of. Susanna
SHAME ON UGLY WHITE RACIST CANADIANS « Reply #1 on Jul 3, 2008, 5:04pm »
SHAME ON UGLY WHITE RACIST CANADIANS ABUSING HUMAN RIGHTS AND PRIVACY OF NONWHITE NEWCOMERS AND IMMIGRANTS USING SEE-THRU-WALL TECHNOLOGIES AND AUDIO BUGGING OF HOMES AND WIRE TAPPING OF PHONES INTERNET AND CABLE.
Using cars, dogs, numerologies, colors, objects, and personal and psychological nonsense, the ugly white racist societies, cops, and their stooges, attempt to portray through their concept of so-called cultural intelligence (e.g. symbolic communications between different living and non-living species, etc) indications, and in-between the lines talks even from third parties, that anyone who is non-white, including legal and illegal immigrants, should bear evil dehumanizing harassments and human rights and privacy violations without getting provoked because the so-called whites in developed countries such as those of North America (that became rich due to uncouthly extracting resources from developing nations by hook or crook), are doing them a big favor to allow them privileged entry into their developed countries, when actually it is the immigrants and non-whites who are basically fuelling the economy of developed countries. The racist white Canadians use their inherent dirty trickster mean mentality to harass non-whites through wastefully driving, wasting fuel, wasting oil, depleting resources leading to increasing food prices, and creating disturbance around non-whites homes in Canada. This includes car drivers bloated with arrogance and stinking of racial hatred towards non-whites, cab drivers without passengers participating in this racial hatred as they are probably being paid by the community to participate in this racial hatred cheap fuel-wasting nonsense, these are the cab drivers who charge for passenger courtesy when they are incapable of being courteous in the real sense of the word, workers in pick-up trucks with nothing better to do, and white racist cops with their ugly see-thru-wall and audio gadgets used to harass non-whites out of racial profiling instead of using it to abolish white crime. Showing that they have work to do but actually not doing much work but instead using their time, money, energies, and gadgets for unrequired unproductive nonsense, these car drivers, cab drivers, workers in pick-up trucks, and cops are hand in gloves with their self-proclaimed exalted white racist boys club, circling repeatedly and meaninglessly around on streets near non-whites homes in their self-imagined self-proclaimed detective-playing immature nonsense. The whites excitedly form closed community networks to harass non-whites in the community in various ways including hacking into their communication channels such as telephones and internet and loudly and purposely accelerating and driving around at appropriate times when non-whites are online on telephones and on internet email or web surfing, whether on dial-up or high-speed modems, to show that whites are smarter than non-whites; however the whites are counter-productive, valueless, and detrimental to success of others, but that is what the whites want - to hamper the health, happiness and success of others capable of attaining it, just because the whites are themselves incapable of attaining it on their own. The illegal hacking by the whites into non-whites communications illegally empowers the whites in developed countries to violate the human rights and privacy of non-whites and harass them in developed countries on the pretext that they are getting to live in their so-called self-proclaimed, media-twisted, privileged developed countries, when the truth is, that the developed countries of North America do not belong to any whites, or any other race, but are countries of immigrants, and countries that have a nauseating genocidal history. The whites basically cannot bear the truths, are hypocrites, and strive to keep truths suppressed through targetted racial harassment, invisible hand, white lies and duping mainstream media, disrespecting and insulting the non-whites in direct and subtle ways, physically assaulting non-whites, psychologically abusing non-whites in subtle ways, etc, and portraying the whites as good and learned people and non-whites as bad and unlearned people. Nothing could be farther from truth. The truth is that there is a great difference between being literate, educated, and learned, or the absence of these qualities. The white Canadians and Americans are incapable of writing proper english, only boasting aloud with their crappy accent and promoting the literary works of their own whites and suppressing those of the non-whites in the mainstream media. The white racist cops in developed countries use their frontline stooges and henchmenwomen to create disturbance and harass non-whites using see-through-wall technologies, and then the white racist cops will wail their sirens; however, the truth is that the white racist cops use a cover-up smoke-screen and are hand-in-gloves with their other white frontline stooges and henchmenwomen in racist white communities to harass the non-whites in evil dehumanizing ways dirty trickster ways, outright racism, and outright blasphemy, and all this gives the whites cheap sadistic pleasure in their nothing-better-to-do lives. The racist white cops have nothing better to do and feel ignored, so they create disturbance and harass non-whites in ugly dehumanizing racial profiling and wailing their ugly sirens loudly purposely in presence of non-whites that makes the unworthy white racist cops feel important. The whites in North America are intoxicated in self-exaltation and incessantly commit ugly acts and deeds as dirty tricksters to racially harass, provoke, and ruin the health and happiness of non-whites and their families. The whites in developed countries do all they can to cover up their ugly history of mass genocides locally and worldwide and instead twist the human word of God, thy Lord, to portray non-white countries as bad. They only want the money of non-whites, self-exaltation for themselves, are full of white-lies, cannot bear the truths, cannot bear non-conformers, are full of harmful detrimental interference and harassment towards non-whites, and devoid of basic human values of human rights and privacy, thriving instead on the crisis and turmoil in other developing countries to portray developed countries as good countries and developing countries as bad countries, a very shallow unlearned portrayal of developing countries by the so-called developed countries, reflecting their shallowness.
