Walking black corpses in Europe

 

“Walking black corpses in Europe”

I am a walking black corpse in Europe.

“I am walking and walking with my wife and son.

I am walking carrion in front of white people.

In front of the browns, I'm walking a carcass.

I am a walking corpse in front of whites and browns.

Humans are staring at me.

Yes, I saw them.

They are humans.

But

They are staring at me as if we were aliens.

Yes, we are aliens to the European race.

They are staring at me without turning their faces

I am confused about their eyes.

I have been conformed

They are normal.

But

They are still staring at me.

My wife

My son

We still conformed.

They are humans.

But

Still, they are not turning their eyes.

My four-year-old child,

Asking me

Why are they staring at us?

We are silent.

We don’t have an answer.

We have an answer.

But

How can we say?

We are black people.

That may hurt him.

That may humiliate him.

That may stress him.

That may traumatize him.

Just like our stress and trauma

that we have been going through for a long time

That may kill him.

My wife and me

replied to my son

We are black people.

That’s why

They are staring at us differently.

He knows

Why he was not touched by white and brown

We told him

We don’t stare at anyone like they are staring at us.

Because we are humans.

We should not dehumanize anyone.

As he understood

Okay, mom and dad.

We reached home

With a lot of dehumanization

With a lot of humiliation

With a lot of rampant racism from whites.

They forgot

Blacks are humans.

But things

Things in the museum

 

I understood

Why did Cornel West say that?

Blacks will never grow in the eyes of whites.

I understood

Why Aimé Césaire said

Every white man is a Hitler.

Every white woman is a Hitler.

Every white queer person is a Hitler.

When they see a black

Just like my untouchable in India

Just like my untouchable in Nepal

Just like my untouchable in Japan

Just like my untouchable in Sri Lanka

Just like my untouchable in Pakistan

Just like my untouchable in Bangladesh

We are dehumanized in Europe.”
