A New York based Nigerian identified as Jackson Ude has taken to his Twitter handle to share his experience with subtle racism in the United States of America detailing some unpleasant moments he had during a visit the Trump International Resort on Collins Avenue.
Following the ongoing uprising in the US on systemic racism and police brutality against people of color, many have taken to social media to share their experiences, encouraging each other to change the current administration.
Jackson Ude in a series of tweets said,
"In 2008, I went to Miami for a vacation and I decided to stay at the Trump International Resort on Collins Avenue. The fact that I decided to stay in that hotel as a black man was a big deal let alone staying in a suite. I answered the most embarrassing questions of my life!"
He castigates Trump for inflaming hate crimes because of his rhetoric
According to him In 2002, he went to a small town called Pittsburg, Kansas, and in front of a building was a bold sign: “Blacks keep off.†Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis Police Officer is certainly one of those who can put up such signs, boast about killing blacks. And he rolls with Trump.

"I still do not know or understand why someone is Abule Egba in Lagos, would want to educate me on why Trump is the best President the U.S has ever produced. I live in New York and I have had one or two things to do with the Trump organization. The experience is not worth it!" - said Jackson.
