I lived here most of my life. Never felt any hostility from Kenyans. A lot of them are the nicest people I know. We give them plenty of jobs and financial opportunities, and at the end of the day. That's all Kenyans care aboutAs a guy that was formerly hyper critical of Somalis insular nature (and still am to a degree) the way tribalistic Kenyans speak about us ( and much more importantly the way other bantu groups support that rhetoric ) made me realise for all our problems there really is legitimate hatred against us.
We have literally had numerous massacres of our people in kenya, and we're literally ONLY THERE because of british colonialism, yet they speak to about us like foreigners and immigrants when these are our indigenous lands.
For all the improvements I want Somalis to make in their tribalism, this is the one context in which we can literally not be anything but the victims. For conversations to navigate in the manner in which they are show's me how we're viewed on a fundamental level.

I've also never heard of any "numerous massacres", Like can you even give me one example that was done purely out of xenophobia? we're not even sure if the most recent attack on those women is a hate crime
I'm sure you are aware that when it comes to online discourse, bigots are the loudest bunch, and are a very small minority, the data isn't sufficient enough to portray how we're viewed on a fundamental level
AUN to everyone who died

Pursue legal action? This is Africa, the Tutsis tried the same and look what happened. Your very sheltered western upbringing is showingI kinda learned to ignore these threads they love to farm from to time. It's not about Kenyans hatred for Somalis and it's really that they have a fantasy about Somalis getting massacred and wish for it to happen to us. It's like cornographic material to them
One poster in a different thread posted a machete and said ''Stay Safe Somalis''
Also Somalis are not insular at all, they very cosmopolitan driven. We been able to live among a diverse ethnicities and cultures and learn to thrive, connect and collaborate with them for centuries. That's why people don't mind us much and we don't treat others like they are beneath us, but more often as mutual benefactors.
But accepting this doesn't play into their xenophobia persona they want to project out there about Somalis. You see this in the reply of @Galool to that other user. The same guy was saying Palestinians deserve genocide and Somalis are lesser people.
With that said Somalis in Kenya should probably pursue legal action and new legislation to combat this type of online hate speech and classify themselves as a protected group. I believe they can make a case for it.
Absolute retards, these people then turn around and claim we have identity issues and self hate. Zero self awareness.
Yeah police are shitheads. they tend to power trip and treat everyone that way. And I'm not saying it justifies it but this was from a decade ago when shabaab bombings were rampant, again not saying it's fair, I received some mistreated those days as well. But when you talk about hostility I picture the likes of South Africa, and Kenya is very far from that picture???Just read this aswell https://www.hrw.org/news/2013/05/29/kenya-police-abuse-nairobis-refugees
"You Are All Terrorists"
This 68-page report was based on interviews with 101 refugees, asylum seekers, and Kenyans of Somali ethnicity.www.hrw.org
Hmm but that still doesnβt explain the massacres that happened to Somalis in the 80sβ¦And itβs not really just about AS itβs about Somali women getting taken advantage of by these officersYeah police are shitheads. they tend to power trip and treat everyone that way.

Cops also treat minorities like dirt in the US, but I wouldn't assume the average white American hates black people
Tsetse fly nerfed us so hard we could have stretched down all the way to mozambiqueyou guys the savannah pastoral neolithic that was discovered in central kenya is somali
