Yep, the madows got the worst arse whopping from cadaans. They were around in an era in which they’d be chased down the street by cadaans with knives, so I reckon treating Somalis like this was probably their way of feeling powerful.
Also, I think Somalis being unapologetically themselves gave some an inferiority complex. Caribbeans had white sounding names and grandparents who’ve been in the UK since the 40s-50s with cockney accents and they were still treated horrendously and then here comes the Somalis who can’t speak proper English, their own unique culture and different religion. And then add in the horrible white racists who are willing to make your life hell and would even try to terrorize Somali hooyos and kids.
In saying that, some of the best people I’ve met have been madows. Once you get older, you realize that humans are a mixed bag.
