Europe: Rape victims accused of racism?

"Blame the victim" is back with a vengeance and gaining ground throughout the West

Newsroom October 2 08:38

An increasingly popular idea is that whenever races clash, only minorities can be victims. The notion is hardly limited to the recent riots in America. Elements of such thinking often appear in other contexts.

Her crime? She had dared to assert that “Britain has a problem with British Pakistani men raping and exploiting white girls”.

The same elements accusing Champion of being a “murderer” also characterized the UK’s anti-extremism program, Prevent, as being “built upon a foundation of Islamophobia and racism”.

“We need to understand racially and religiously aggravated crime if we are going to prevent it and protect people from it and if we are going to prosecute correctly for it”, she said in a recent interview .
