Racism
Two men broke into a shop, one is white, the other is African, as we cannot say black because that is a racist slur
The pair was caught and sent before a magistrate. The white guy was sentenced to two years in jail. Being white, he was seen as privileged, although he was a poor working-class
The man referred to as an African got a lighter sentence mainly because he came from people who had suffered at the hands of whites. Those who administer the law failed to see how deeply racist they are against the black population
