Such a sorry state of mankind.

Are we really progressing as humans with compassionate soul?? Or is technological advancement the only yardstick to measure our progress and evolution?

Agree- This has to stop. :stop_sign:

More needs to be done to condemn racism in the world and hold people accountable to such hideous acts. We cannot leave everything to individuals and expect enlightenment from them. The onus then shifts on social media platforms to block such behavior by banning such racist fans from their platform.

We stand with #MarcusRashford. :muscle::heart:
