Moi, Mustapha Kessous, journaliste au
Racism Anonymous writes "Brice Hortefeux a trop d'humour. Je le sais, il m'a fait une blague un jour. Jeudi 24 avril 2008. Le ministre de l'immigration et de l'identité nationale doit me recevoir dans son majestueux bureau. Un rendez-vous pour parler des grèves de sans-papiers dans des entreprises. Je ne l'avais jamais rencontré. Je patiente avec ma collègue Laetitia Van Eeckhout dans cet hôtel particulier de la République. Brice Hortefeux arrive, me tend la main, sourit et lâche : "Vous avez vos papiers ?"

Trois mois plus tard, lundi 7 juillet, jour de mes 29 ans. Je couvre le Tour de France. Je prépare un article sur ces gens qui peuplent le bord des routes. Sur le bitume mouillé près de Blain (Loire-Atlantique), je m'approche d'une famille surexcitée par le passage de la caravane, pour bavarder. "Je te parle pas, à toi", me jette un jeune homme, la vingtaine. A côté de moi, mon collègue Benoît Hopquin n'a aucun souci à discuter avec cette "France profonde". Il m'avouera plus tard que, lorsque nous nous sommes accrédités, une employée de l'organisation l'a appelé pour savoir si j'étais bien son... chauffeur.

Je pensais que ma "qualité" de journaliste au Monde allait enfin me préserver de mes principaux "défauts" : être un Arabe, avoir la peau trop basanée, être un musulman. Je croyais que ma carte de presse allait me protéger des "crochets" balancés par des gens obsédés par les origines et les apparences. Mais quels que soient le sujet, l'endroit, la population, les préjugés sont poisseux."

Will the Bradley Effect Be Obama's Downfall?
Racism JOHN BERMAN writes "Worries Rise That Questions of Race Overstate Obama's 10-Point Lead.
With the economic crisis center stage, Barack Obama has solidified his lead, pulling ahead of John McCain by 10 points among likely voters, 53-43 percent, in a recent ABC News/Washington Post poll.
But the question remains: Is that margin enough?

Zorra inmigrante de mierda
Racism Anonymous writes "Las declaraciones ante el juez revelan las frases racistas del agresor del tren
"Zorra inmigrante de mierda". "Yo he matado al moro". "Yo le corté la yugular a Mohamed". "No sé para que vienen estos inmigrantes de mierda". "Una zorra a la que tengo ganas de...". Esas son algunas de las frases que Sergi Xavier Martín profirió la noche del 7 de octubre. Unas, mientras hablaba por teléfono, y otras, dirigidas directamente contra la menor ecuatoriana a la que también le propinó una patada en la cara.

Mosquée incendiée : Sarkozy
Racism Rodney writes "Ils ont bravé le froid sec pour exprimer leur "colère et leur incompréhension" face à la "recrudescence et à la montée significative de l'islamophobie en France". Au lendemain d'une tentative d'incendie de la mosquée de Saint-Priest, dans la banlieue de Lyon, un millier de personnes se sont réunies dimanche devant le lieu de culte pour dénoncer la montée de "l'islamophobie" en France.

Loving Day
Racism Rodney writes "Mildred Loving (June 22, 1939 — May 2, 2008), with her husband Richard Perry Loving (October 29, 1933 – June 29, 1975) filed and won a landmark U.S. court appeal in defense of their own interracial marriage that became the legal standard used to eradicate laws against mixed marriage across the country.

Loving was born Mildred Delores Jeter, of African and Rappahannock Native American descent, and married a white man named Richard Loving in June, 1958. The Lovings traveled to the District of Columbia to be married, but on their return to their home in Central Point, Virginia they were charged with "cohabiting as man and wife, against the peace and dignity of the Commonwealth" according to Virginia's anti-miscegenation law.
