Racist UK! UK Foreign Student Suffer Racist Abuse By Her Flatmate At Warwick University!

Twitter user Faramade Ifaturoti posted a photo of a bunch of banana with the word Monkey and Nigga written on it alleging that one of her flatmates was responsible. "Just entered the kitchen and look at what one of my flatmates has done. I am extremely disgusted."

Reacting to the racist incident, Warwick University (@warwickuni) wrote: "A racist incident has been widely reported on social media-the University is investigating as a matter of urgency"
 
According to the independent.co.uk, the students’ union president in a statement said ; “Warwick SU [students' union] has a zero-tolerance policy on racist behaviour. We unequivocally condemn this shocking and disgusting act, which should clearly have no place in either our university, or society at large.
 
“We have reached out to the student affected by this episode and have contacted the university to offer further support. Should a formal complaint be raised regarding a specific individual’s conduct, the SU will, of course, treat it as a matter for urgent disciplinary action.”
 
Speaking to the Independent, 19-year-old Warwick law and sociology student, Jere Agbaje, who said she is a friend of Ms Ifaturoti, described how the student had her shopping delivered to her Warwick student accommodation on Monday night at around 10pm.
 
Ms Agbaje continued: “She unpacked and stored her shopping, whilst four of her flatmates were in the kitchen. Today, when she came into the kitchen, to her horror, those shocking racial slurs and dehumanising remarks were branded on her bananas.
 
“I have been in contact with Fara, and she is incredibly shaken and shocked. She is currently being comforted by her friends and family. This is been an incredibly distressing ordeal for her.”
 
Since the incident was reported, a solidarity campaign entitled #WeStandWithFara has begun to trend online.

 
Meanwhile this time two years ago the University was forced to erected a fence around a campus lake to stop a spate of swan attacks on students. A 4ft tall bird, which boasts an 8ft wingspan, has been accused of behaved aggressively towards foreign students as they cross over a footbridge near its nesting place at the university's Gibbet Hill campus in Coventry, West Midlands, telegraph.co.uk reports
The footbridge is used by hundreds of students everyday as a route between accommodation and university buildings. Undergraduates revealed that the swan only appeared to target students from ethnic minorities.
One 24-year-old student from India said: "These swans are very annoying, and the students feel as though they're being bullied. "I'm from India, and they attack me especially, they focus straight on me.
 
"We've been warned that the swans will be a bit feisty at this time of year, but they go for me all year round. "I think they don't like too many Indians in England - maybe the swans here are a little bit racist."
 
Italian student Albertina Crocetti, 24, who is studying Physics with Business Studies, said: "It's bizarre, she doesn't seem to like foreigners and attacks them to defend her nest.
"She's a true right winger that's for sure - they certainly seem to be racially motivated incidents.
 
"It's scary as I know they can some damage, its safer now she's been fenced off so nobody gets hurt."
 
Marketing student, Palkein Ratra, 24, added: "I saw the swan yesterday evening, my friend was on the bridge and he was eating and the swan just randomly started biting off his jeans," telegraph.co.uk reports
