It is always sad to witness acts of prejudice against nationalities still existing in the world to such a degree. Especially, with social media, it has become easier to let the world know about such unfortunate and shameful events. In recent news, a video shot by some Indian-American women has taken the internet by storm. The video shows how the women are being humiliated by racist remarks from a Mexican-American woman in the city of Texas, USA. 

The video was posted by a woman named Rani Banerjee who was present at the spot too and had shot the video of the whole act. The video was posted on Wednesday night and India woke up to a shock on Thursday morning. The incident happened outside a restaurant, in a parking area in Plano, Texas. It happened in the late evening, and in the video, you can see the Mexican American woman hurling and passing hate-filled racist comments at the 4 Indian-American women. The Mexican woman’s name is Esmeralda Upton as per the police announcement. She can be seen saying the women to go back to India. Upton also says that if it is such a great country then “stay there”.
