I believe the stories of Christoper Kapessa (13) and Shukri Abdi (12) need to be shared everywhere. These two beautiful children were murdered in the U.K. by racist bullies from their schools a month apart in 2019.

Shukri came to this country in 2017 as a Somali refugee and was bullied relentlessly at her school - Hazel Wood High School formerly known as Broad Oak High School (Greater Manchester). If you’re wondering why their name changed it’s because they tried to rebrand after her death. Shukri’s mother had told the school many times that her daughter was being bullied with the bullies sometimes following them home. The school REFUSED to intervene. Shukri was pushed into traffic on one occasion but was lucky to get out in time. Her murder: Shukri was forced into a river by these same bullies; they knew she could not swim. They taunted and laughed as she drowned. Police closed the case almost immediately, ignoring key witness accounts and substantial evidence that showed a pattern of racial abuse and threats from Shukri’s murderers.

Similarly, Christopher was also pushed into a river in South Wales where he lived. Christoper could not swim either and his killers watched him drown. CPS believed there was sufficient evidence that pointed to Christoper being pushed into the river yet they refused to prosecute his murderers. This case was closed just as soon as it was opened because his murderers were deemed ‘mature’ with ‘good school records.’

These cases received little to no exposure and the police helped to protect these children’s murderers. Who’s story has also been hidden? If the children in these areas are racially abusing and murdering black children so openly, what else is going on?

Here are some petitions you can sign which demand justice for Christoper and Shukri.

As white people, we can’t begin to eradicate our internalized biases without knowing how to identify them. Let’s educate ourselves. And don’t forget that these are biases you need to call out when you see them in others as well.

Understanding Implicit Bias (article)

Stereotypes of African Americans (wikipedia): do the work to understand the links between old incredibly harmful stereotypes and modern white expectation that Black people be caretakers, for example.

Black people are not here to teach you: What so many white Americans just can’t grasp (article)

The White Internet’s Love Affair with Digital Blackface (video)

Dismantling Whiteness as the Beauty Standard (article)

I don’t care if you’re ‘fascinated’ by my afro, stop touching it (article)

Racial empathy gap: people don’t perceive pain in other races. (article)

Read about how scientific racism was used to institutionalize racism and justify slavery and white supremacy in the United States by claiming that enslaved people could withstand more pain. 

Connect this to Black people today being denied the same medical treatment as whites: Some medical students still think black patients feel less pain than whites (article)

Let’s End The ‘Strong Black Woman’ Stereotype. Can’t We Be Vulnerable And Emotional Too? (article)

On calling Black people articulate/well-spoken/educated: The Racial Politics of Speaking Well (article)

The Dangerous Delusion of the Big, Scary, Black Man (article) 

Consider why perceptions of Black people as dangerous/aggressive make white folks so reactive to Black anger: to perceive civility as incivility and to perceive anger as a violent threat. 

Perceptions and stereotypes of Black men being bigger, stronger and scarier can also be fetishizing. Fetishizing people of color isn’t a compliment, so don’t act like it is (article)

Hyper-Sexualization of Black Women in the Media (pdf)

Is This How Discrimination Ends? (article)

I encourage anyone to add, with links or by writing out your own thoughts.

As white people, what should be guiding us is compassion: breaking down the way white supremacy has reduced our compassion for Black lives.
