Black Man Racially Abused At Slavery Museum And This Is How Passers-By Reacted

Trollstation are back and this time they are tackling the tough subject of racism. If you haven’t heard of these guys before, they make thought-provoking social experiment videos and recently did a brilliant job of tackling workplace sexism. This time round they set up shop at Liverpool’s International Slavery Museum, posing as two members of the public. The footage shows one white man openly abusing a black man, with members of the public stepping in to come to the victim’s aid. With the white man hurling various insulting phrases loud enough for other people to hear, it was only a matter of time before a good Samaritan stepped up to the plate.The Liverpool Echo reports that at one point, the white man says, “It would have been better if the white people were slaves because we actually work better.” He continues: “You were slaves for a reason mate.” The video itself is on the next page and makes for some pretty interesting viewing. Prepare to be shocked and impressed in equal measure.I don’t know about you, but I’d definitely be saying something if I heard that in a public place – especially if that place was a museum dedicated to the horrors of slavery. At the time of writing, the video has managed to get more than 68,000 views. “I don’t agree with you,” said a passer-by. “You’re being a bigot,” she stated, keen to make her feelings abundantly clear. “Nobody is interested in your opinions, keep it to yourself.”Shocking viewing right? Despite the comments made in the video, it’s great to see members of the public making a stand against this kind of ignorant rhetoric. Obviously, at the end of the video the actors revealed what they were up to, with our vocal lady giving a pretty brilliant reaction.
