Actually happened last year but needs to be shown what these ignorants think trump gives them power to do.
An American missionarys racist rant in Uganda shows the disturbing reality of White Savior complex
Last week, Ugandan police were called to a hotel in the center of the capital Kampala where an American citizen had assaulted and racially abused hotel employees.
Jimmy Taylor, 69, a self-proclaimed missionary, uttered a barrage of insults at Ugandans working at one of the oldest hotels in the city, the Grand Imperial Hotel. The whole spectacle was captured on video and, thanks to social media, the footage went viral and became a point of debate and conversation beyond Uganda.

(4,291 posts)Remember the story about the American missionary who tried to convert the indigenous people of that island? Hint: it did not end well for him. But, hey! He's a martyr in some people's eyes. And a "Dickhead" in everyone else's.
