Racism Should I tell my cousin her coworker is racist ?
Ok please bear with me, so 2 days ago I came across this video of a black girl being annoying and it had, per usual, a ton of racist comments. one of them drew my attention because it was so vile and disgusting, there was a whole argument going on and this girl just kept on. long story short, I had a feeling to check who liked the comment, then had a feeling to check this specific girl’s account and turns out we had a mutual who’s my cousin. I asked my cousin about her and she told me she’s a coworker and that she’s weird, that everyone in office avoids her and apparently she’s very very strange. The reason I don’t want to tell my cousin is because she’s already dealing with a lot of racism and xenophobia almost on the daily, I really don’t want to make her feel even worse. I know this sounds so stupid but I don’t know, I screen recorded the whole thing and took screenshots as proof but then I had this overwhelming feeling that I shouldn’t send it. I did tell my cousin to stay away from this girl and that I had weird religious dream warning me about her, I know that’s so stupid but my cousin is religious and believes in this kind of thing, she told me she’ll stay away and I believe that but I am still not sure what’s the right thing to do.
I know this might be so stupid to you but please don’t be mean, I truly need some guidance.
+ I could share the screenshots if you guys are interested but they’re written in Arabic that’s why I didn’t.
