I think this is my whole point. If we don't speak about it we will never change it.

And while you hear almost every day about BAME or POC you almost never hear about Eastern Europeans in terms of the discrimination they face. This is to such a point that some people believe there is almost no discrimination against them.

Also, they are mostly shown in a negative light in the media. It would be nice to have a more positive representation.
