Comments on: RACISM: “MISERY” IN ETHIOPIA – an racist edcuated swedish doctor´s view of contemprary Ethiopia http://abeshaunited.com/index.php/2009/12/blogpost-misery-an-edcuated-swedish-doctor%c2%b4s-view-of-contemprary-ethiopia/ Thu, 19 Aug 2010 09:28:51 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Franklyn Davies http://abeshaunited.com/index.php/2009/12/blogpost-misery-an-edcuated-swedish-doctor%c2%b4s-view-of-contemprary-ethiopia/comment-page-1/#comment-6018 Franklyn Davies Wed, 14 Jul 2010 19:00:05 +0000 http://abeshaunited.com/?p=207#comment-6018 Whilst Anna's comments may be a little direct, they reflect a lack of understanding and appreciation. Abesha United's comments reflect the same characteristics, perhaps friends of Ethiopia should take the opportunity to educate and inform rather than use bad language and insults to make their point. How can you claim any moral ground if you employ the same negative attitude as that you accuse others of? Perhaps an opportunity missed to demonstrate 'true' Ethiopian values of tolerance, politeness and patience.

Yes women are not treated well in Ethiopia- perhaps she travelled more to the east. From the way she is dressed, I am sure the habeshas will misunderstand her. Just stand by the streets of Addis Ababa (but not bole) and watch for five minutes. You will find guys that spend the whole day doing just what Anna was talking about. This is truely Ethiopian.
