On 23 March 2013, I was told by a member of staff at Southborough Library that I was searching for Internet Porn on a library PC, despite their being a) no evidence; b) the fact that Library staff are not psychic; &, c) are not known to me personally. Thus, they could not know my intentions.
On 3 April 2013, I received a letter from yourselves claiming I had accessed Websites (at Southborough Library) that were blocked - with no explanation as to how I could access such Sites (A bit like claiming I had passed through a locked door without a key.)
On 4 June 2013, I received another letter from yourselves claiming I had - as above - somehow violated your Acceptable Use Policy (AUP). (I was told I could print a copy of this document from the pre-screen that appears before every customer Internet session at any library.)
On 6 June 2013, I was told at Tunbridge Wells Library that I had been blocked from using the Library PCs as a result of the content of the letter referred to in the previous paragraph - even though this letter does not make any such statement. (This staff member had not actually read the letter and/or did not understand its content.)
On 8 June 2013, I could not make a booking on a Tunbridge Wells Library PC, despite receiving no written notification that I could not do so. A member of staff had to make the booking for me; after conferring with their manager.
On 2 July 2013, I was told at Tonbridge Library that I was no longer allowed to use their PCs. I was again shown your letter of 4 June 2013, as if this was proof, which it was not. This staff member had not actually read the letter and/or did not understand its content. (I was allowed to use their PCs after they realised their mistake.)
All of the above shows Library Staff all-too-eager to make negative assumptions about Black people - without evidence - and to believe that bullying, ridicule and bringing their personal problems into work represents good Customer Service.
This also allows me to do the same with about White people - but with evidence. The Library Service:
- Is Institutional Racist - as defined in the UK government Report into the Murder of Stephen Lawrence;
- employs staff with no understanding of civil law or civility;
- employs staff who are ignorant, incompetent, unprofessional and illiterate;
- seeks to punish customers before obtaining evidence against them putting rumour, belief and prejudice before evidence or proof;
- White people believe other Whites before they will believe a Black no matter the evidence merely making a negative claim is enough for it to be believed by them;
- staff tacitly accept the management will back them in any dispute with a customer - so are free to discriminate at will;
- utilises poor or non-existent internal procedures and poor or non-existent internal communication;
- possesses no understanding of the rules of evidence; leading to a desire to believe the worst in others without the need for evidence, lawful excuse or provocation; ie, arrogance;
- clearly implies a White belief that public services are only for Whites and that Blacks are only to be granted access by special permission (of Whites);
- has a legally-unenforceable AUP, since it does not address the legal issue of Intentionality.
The problem for Whites in all interactions with Blacks is that if they are subjectively-based, Whites can easily be accused of White supremacy while it is correspondingly difficult for Whites to claim Black supremacy.
Whites are not going to protect non-Whites from the predations of their own White supremacy so non-Whites have to.
White supremacy is like paedophilia - incurable. Therefore, I can only repeat my threat contained in my letter of 8 June 2013 that I can see no other alternative than legal action (for Harassment & Discrimination) should the above violation of my Common Law rights occur again.
