(1/6) On July 20, an @MSF team of 16 people in #Khartoum was aggressively assaulted by a group of armed men, who physically beat & whipped them. They detained one of our drivers & threatened his life before releasing him. They also stole one of our vehicles.

Call the comments racist My house is 2nd and 3rd Gen 🇨🇦 No matter what we are viewed as foreign by many My parents escaped poverty to come to 🇨🇦 and worked their asses off. They made us do the same. They experienced brutal racism. None of this is new, it’s just back in the open – at Toronto, Ontario
