A McDonald's restaurant in China has banned black people from entering the store out of fears that they might be coronavirus carriers.
A video recently circulating online showed a customer holding a sign that read: 'We've been informed from now on black people are not allowed to enter the restaurant.' The store is believed to be located in the southern Chinese city Guangzhou.
The footage sparked uproar online after the fast-food chain was accused of fuelling the rising xenophobia, particularly towards African nationals, in the country.
McDonald's said the notice 'is not representative of our inclusive values'. The US fast-food giant has temporarily closed the branch, according to a statement.

ReplyDeleteNorthwest Woodsman: What, the Chinese are racist? Whoda thunk? Seems like the Chinese, Japanese and Koreans are not fans of multiculturalism and inclusion except when it is in their favor such as admission to US universities. So if you go there, don’t expect to be treated as an equal and don’t expect any special treatment because of your race or nationality.
