Prominent activist, Tatenda Karigambe-Sandberg has spoken out saying she has personally noticed and experienced racism in Sweden where she lives.
She lashed out after her Tatenda Movement was denied funding for a pride festival and yet a similar white organisation got funding.
"For example in Härnösand Tatenda_Movement started a Pride Festival in 2017 and we asked help from organisations like RFSL_Sundsvall but our efforts where effortless ,despite that we where very successful in making the pride festival a success without their help.

We are surprised that the RFSL_Sundsvall are supporting a
Swedish Group comprised by members of the Miljö Partiet in doing a pride
festival in Harnösand 2018 the week before Tatenda_Movement have its Pride
Festival.
This is an indication that an organisation managed by black transgender immigrant woman is not worthy to be supported but rather a
Swedish group comprised by members of the Miljö Partiet.
Yes this is a calculated racial attack. Yes I will speak confidently and boldly. Why can we not collaborate and build a one united Pride
Festival In Härnösand than destroying the ethics of humanity because of race.
You racists I am coming after you because being_black is
not a choice but being racist is a choice. I will fight you until justice prevail,"
