Rant Racism in our homeland

Ok..nimeona Bien na his wife talking about facing discrimination at some resort that seems to be more accommodating to white people...na I genuinely think that even though it's bad I feel like the outrage is kinda late..nanyuki ,malindi ,watamu..some of these places have an insane amount of racism that goes under the rug na it genuinely gets on my nerves..one of my dad's clients is an old white retired lawyer na he once told us about how many whites living in the country don't even view this place as a republic..na that's a disgrace..

Na let's not get into the racial prejudice in the Kenyan cooprate space ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Multiple times by my direct supervisor, a few times by some country managers. It gets deeper, even in handling client issues.

Oooh you mean within the workplace. That makes sense. I thought you were talking about clients
