There've been several cases of racism in most institutions in Kenya, and I’m afraid this won’t be the last one until something is done about it. Meanwhile, here's what's allegedly happened recently in Nairobi.

Nairobi's 'funkiest' new joint, 'The Alchemist’, has been accused of being racist. According to Dexter Findley, a mzungu who visited the bar with his with his Kenyan friends, the club’s bouncers refused to let Kenyans in as they only admitted white people and Indians.

According to Dexter, the bouncers were being very aggressive and even physical with blacks.

One colleague of mine was physically shoved when he approached the gate; he and couple of other friends were denied entry - until us white people in the group stepped forward and assured the bouncer we are all together.

Our efforts to reach the bar’s management for a comment bore no fruit as our calls went unanswered.
