Kenyans and Other Africans Evicted from Their Houses in China over Claims of Spreading Covid-19

Kenyans and other Africans in China have been thrown out of their houses and forced to live in the streets over allegations of spreading coronavirus, according to reports.

The racial profiling of Africans was reportedly fueled by a report by Chinese health authorities, which indicated that 61 out of the 63 cases of Covid-19 recently recorded in mainland China were imported.

Africans are also being denied access to the subways, supermarkets and other public spaces over the same allegations. Brenda, a Kenyan woman living in Beijing, said she was recently blocked from entering a subway because of her skin color.

“I had even bought a ticket, but they told me that they were not allowing foreigners into the subway, I could not argue with the locals, so I complied,” Brenda told Citizen TV on Thursday.

She also said he was evicted from her apartment with her belongings and spent two nights in the streets. 

“The Kenyan embassy was not responding to my calls and when they did, they told me to report the matter to the police,” she said, adding that she spent three hours at a police station and did not get any help.

She is presently being hosted by a Zimbabwean national in a tiny room alongside three other people. Brenda further revealed that she is aware of two other pregnant ladies who have since been served with eviction notices.

Reports indicate that landlords across China have been served with notices asking them to evict people of African descent from their properties.

Likewise, we demand no less. All Chinese in Kenya must be thrown into the streets and evacuated from Kenya!!
Have we forgotten so soon? Some Kenyans roughed up some Chinese guys over corona, the Chinese ambassador in Kenya warned us all that we cannot discriminate against Chinese people over corona virus. We have not heard a word from our Kenyan ambassador in China or our government regarding this discrimination and racism in China.
Kenyans are sleeping in the streets in China, while Chinese people in Kenya are getting special treatment from our government- calling us monkeys, including Uhuru and whipping adult employees like animals. You get the picture?
Wake up Kenyans, if the government can't kick them out, we shall!!

The Chinese gova must be feeding its citizens garbage, telling them that the virus is imported by foreigners to deflect from the fact that they tried to hide its origin in Wuhan. When I see this, I am glad that Pres Trump calls it "Chinese virus". He knows they are trying to re-write this virus's history.

Where is the African Union when you need it? Where is the UN to raise the alarm? No one in the world power structure is condemning it. This reckless open discrimination goes to show how the people of the world are comfortable with blacks people's pain and suffering. By now, it should be obvious to us that no one will save us but ourselves. Imagine the reaction of UN, European Union and other heavy weights of the world,if this same naked discrimination was perpetrated against the Jewish people or other non black peoples.
The only thing that will save black people from discrimination,racism,abuse, hatred,rejection, disenfriachment,and all manner of inhumane treatment by others; it's the unity and solidarity of the black nation all over the world. If we unite, pull together, share our unique history, work and live experiences; protect and exploit our natural resources, including our human resources for the benefit of the black nation on Earth, we would be forever free and free indeed!
Our history (slavery, imperialism, colonialism, neo- colonialism and now, the mega-cooporate take-overs and our leaders);have chosen this path of humiliation for us. We must reject it and unite for our survival.

Have Kenyans and African started eating rats, bats, snakes, Nyau, GUI, etc where the virus is thought to have originated! And what is this crap that the Chinese who eat these forsaken goddam animals are now turning the blame to Africans in China!? Bad juju of a yellow man’s racism to Africans!
