Racial discrimination, “Are we really that different?”

Are we really that different? On the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, which occurs on March 21, we have asked this question to some Tiktoker that every day on social platforms tell about multiculturalism starting from their stories, their origins.

«We have different opinions, ideas, tastes, yes, but we are all human we must have the same rights, the same job opportunities without being discriminated against for their physical appearance and their origins “, he replies Shinhai Ventura that with his mother Kazue highlights all the charm of Japanese culture, especially as regards the characters of the writing of the land of the Rising Sun.

And with irony he underlines the clichés about his culture and those jokes, which for many turn into daily discrimination, to which one does not owe and can get used to.

«We are all human, created in a universally perfect way, different because each of us has our own beauty, has its own character that distinguishes us all from one another but which is always something that is beautiful and positive in each specific person “, he smiles Tasnim Ali, Roman, born in Arezzo and of Egyptian origin. He is 21 years old and in his videos he tells about Islam also involving his father, imam, professor at the University of Rome and owner of a travel agency specializing in pilgrimages to Mecca.

«There is a lot of talk about diversity but certainly it is not the features of the face, it is not the color of the skin or the sexual orientation that makes one person different from the other. So yes, we are different but at the same time we are also all the same and it is beautiful that way. The world is beautiful for this reason, for the different particularities. We should simply appreciate more and learn from different cultures, ”he recalls Dayoung Clementi, Italian-Korean creator, who on TikTok talks about his dual culture as well as offering tips for effective study and English language pills.

To combat racial discrimination, TikTok celebrates the diversity of its community, inviting all creators to tell and tell themselves they use l’hashtag #LeCoseCheNonSai. Everyone will be able to tell the curiosities of their culture, their traditions, the difficulties they have faced and the support they have received, thus helping to educate against racism.

Also, through the function “Ask me a question” it will be possible to interact with your favorite creators or ask them directly with a video using #LeCoseCheNonSai.
