> In Britain, if you want to see racism, try being a white boy dating a non-white girl

Try being a non-white boy dating a white girl. Do you think racism doesn't rear its head in that case?

In any case, this is pretty blatant whataboutism. The article is about the UK, not about other countries, and racism in other countries does not make racism in the UK less bad.

Sure it does but families from certain non native communities in the UK will go to extreme extents to break up such relationships.

Families from certain native communities in the UK will do that, too. They just call it "nativism" instead of "racism."

Which native communities would those be? Your comment does not sound like that of someone overly familiar with the UK. Nativist for example is not a term used in the UK.
