1 | Halloween's Three Black Maids Stir Racism Debate in Lebanon | Adihevitra momba ny Fanavakavaham-bolonkoditra Nanjo Ny Mpanampy Vavy Telo Nandritry ny Halloween Tany Lebanona |
2 | The Instagram photograph of three Lebanese women dressed up as black maids. | Sarin'ny Instagram mampiseho ireo ramatoa Libanona telo miankanjo toy ny mainty hoditra mpiasa antrano. |
3 | Blogger Joey Ayoub calls out racism | Manondro ny fanavakavaham-bolon-koditra ny mpanao Bilaogy Joey Ayoub. |
4 | For Halloween, people don different costumes. | Mandritra ny Halloween dia miankanjo samihafa ny olona. |
5 | Lebanese blogger Joey Ayoub stumbled upon revelers, who decided to dress up as black maids. | Tohina tamin'ireo mpanao fety ny mpanao bilaogy Libanona Joey Ayoub, raha nanapa-kevitra ny hiakanjo tahaka ireo mainty hoditra mpiasa antrano izy ireo. |
6 | Ayoub calls out their racism in a post on his blog Hummus for Thought saying: | Nanameloka ny fanavakavaham-bolonkoditra i Ayoub tao amin'ny lahatsorany iray tao anaty bilaogy Hummus for Thought nilaza hoe: |
7 | Three very sophisticated Lebanese women clearly thought this was an appropriate costume for Halloween. | Vehivavy Libanona telo tena tsara bika no nieritreritra fa akanjo mety tsara ho an'ny Halloween io. |
8 | After all why not? | Inona tokoa moa ny olana? |
9 | Why not dress up as black maids? | Nahoana no tsy hiakanjo tahaka ireo mainty hoditra mpiasa antrano ? |
10 | It's not like trying to dress up as Lebanon's quasi-slaves can't have some entertainment value. | Tsy hoe tsy ho azo atao fialam-boly akory ny fiankajoana tahaka ireo andevon'ny Libanona. |
11 | ‘Heik heik' [Eitherway] they're already degraded to the level of sub-human, why not at least get a laugh? | ‘Heik heik' [Na izany na tsy izany] efa latsaka ambanin'ny olombelona izy ireo, nahoana no tsy mba hihomehy farafaha-ratsiny? |
12 | The blogger tries to find a reason for this behaviour: | Miezaka manamarina izao fitondran-tena izao ilay mpanao bilaogy: |
13 | I'm just trying to figure out what could have possibly gone through their minds, but I can't seem to find anything remotely sensible. […] | Miezaka manakatra ny mety ho nandalo tao an-tsainy fotsiny aho, saingy ohatran'ny tsy nahita azo ekena mihitsy. |
14 | Dehumanizing, disgraceful and just pathetic. | […]Manambany, mahamenatra sady mahonena. |
15 | The good news is that Filipinos didn't seem to be the main target here. | Ny vaovao tsara dia tsy ireo Filipiana no kendrena mivantana eto. |
16 | But I guess they had some black makeup around and simply had to use it, so Ethiopians and Sri Lankans were the lucky winners. | Saingy mino aho fa nanana manjamaso mainty ry zareo ka tsy maintsy nampiasaina izany, ka ireo Etiopiana sy Sri Lanke no tratra. |
17 | I don't know which nationality was the target here, but anyway our racists use “Sirlankyyeh” (literally: Sri Lankan woman) for all female migrant workers - No, I'm not kidding. | Tsy fantatro hoe teratany inona no nokendrena teto, fa na izany aza dia mampiasa ny “Sirlankyyeh” (ara-baki-teny: vehivavy Sri Lanke) ireto mpanavakava-bolonkoditra ireto ho an'ireo mpiasa vehivavy mpifindra monina rehetra - Tsia, tsy mananihany aho. |
18 | For good measure, Ayoub adds: | Mba ho fitandremana dia manampy Ayoub: |
19 | Now I know that it's very likely that at least one person reading this would know who these three women are. | Ankehitriny, fantatro fa tsy maintsy misy olona iray amin'ireo mpamaky fara-faharatsiny mahafantatra ireo vehivavy telo ireo. |
20 | I don't want their names. | Tsy tiako ho fantatra ny anaran'izy ireo. |
21 | I don't really care. | Tsy raharahiako mihintsy. |
22 | Just let them know that their faces have now gone viral. | Ampahafantaro azy fotsiny fa efa miparitaka izao ny endriny. |
23 | In comments on the post, Nathalie Derderian writes: | Tao amina tsikera tao amin'ilay lahatsoratra, nanoratra i Nathalie Derderian hoe: |
24 | This is a shame!! | Henatra izany! |
25 | Its not enough that these people put up with workin nonstop for a salary that is meaningless, its not enough how much they go thru away from their families. But this is pity!! | Tsy ampy fotsiny ny hoe miasa tsy ankijanona ireo olona ireo nefa mikarama vary masaka, tsy ampy ny hoe mavitry ny fianakaviany izy. |
26 | a shame !!! that 3 young girls could be soo emotionless about them! these are people too! | Saingy izao kosa mahonena!! mahamenatra! !! hoe tsy mba miantra azy mihitsy tovovavy telo ireo! Mba olombelona koa anie ry zareo e! |
27 | Tamam Tawk adds: | Manampy koa i Tamam Tawk: |
28 | You should note that the use of black makeup or black face is steeped in racism. | Tsara ho fantatrao fa ny fampiasàna manjamaso mainty na ny fanaovana tarehy maintsy dia tafiditra anatin'ny fanavakavaham-bolonkoditra. |
29 | It dates back to when white people would put on black face and act out .. incredibly racist and offensive stereotypes. | Izany dia efa nanomboka tamin'ny fotoana nanaovan'ireo fotsy hoditra tarehy mainty ka nanao esoeso… tena manavakavaka sady manafintohina. |
30 | So this is racism compounded with racism. | Ity kosa dia fanavakavahana avo roa heny. |
31 | These people make me sick. | Maharikoriko ahy ireo olona ireo. |
32 | And Bassem Deaibess concludes: | Ary mamarana i Bassem Deaibess hoe: |
33 | It is RACISM when you consider it COMMON that maids are always Black. | FANAVAKAVAHANA izany raha toa ka heverinao AMIN'NY ANKAPOBENY fa matetika ny mpiasa antrano dia Mainty hoditra. |
34 | But nicocohayek has another opinion. | Fa manana hevitra hafa kosa i nicocohayek. |
35 | He explains: | Manazava izy fa: |
36 | I can't really find what's the big deal, and i never support racism acts especially in our country, but what they did is nothing of the sort! | Tsy hitako loatra hoe aiza no tena olana, sady tsy manohana velively ny fanavakavaham-bolonkoditra velively aho indrindra aty amin'ny firenentsika, saingy tsy misy idiran'izany kosa izao zavatra nataon-dry zareo izao! |
37 | What if someone showed up as Michael Jordan or Barack Obama? | Ahoana raha toa ka misy olona miakanjo tahaka an'i Michael Jordan na Barack Obama? |
38 | Would you have the same reaction? | Mbola ho izany ihany ve ny eritreritrao? |
39 | They're both as real as you and me; but one is a more common sighting in lebanon. | Velona tahaka ahy sy ianao ihany izy ireo; saingy ny iray dia hita miharihary be loatra any Libanona. |
