A Germany-based Nigerian woman has taken to social media to narrate her heartbreaking experience with racism in the European country.
The woman, who appears to be living in Germany with her family, said after she dropped off her children at school, she went to the mall to buy some items.
She selected the items and walked to the checkout counter to make payment, but the white cashier was very rude and condescending towards her because of her skin colour.
According to her, the cashier who gave a white customer his change in his hands, threw her change on the floor and told her to pick it up.
Humiliated by the incident, the woman decried the high level of racism in the country and said she would rather return back to Africa and start from scratch, than be subjected to such dehumanizing treatment in a foreign country.
Watch her speak below,
The video has sparked different reactions on Instagram.
