Germany’s first African-born MP to stand down after racist abuse ( www.theguardian.com )

Diaby, of the Social Democrats (SPD), entered parliament alongside Charles M Huber, who sat for the Christian Democrats for just one parliamentary term. They were the first black members of the Bundestag and their entry was hailed as groundbreaking and historic by equal rights campaigners....

Axusse ,

The rhetoric makes totally sense to me, he's facing a not easy situation as you say, he made his decision, but it doesn't mean that it is something to be accepted.
In one case you have feelings, in the other the fact that a thing is not acceptable.

Axusse ,

I get your point. Unfortunately not all humans are good in speeches.

I'm Italian and we had Falcone and Borsellino facing the mafia, of course it is another topic, but they were brave. They accepted the challenge and they put their lives in danger and the life of their family. There are also many other politicians over the world that just didn't surrender against injustices.

But you have to be strong and brave, and you have to know exactly who you are fighting against and what are you fighting for. So it's just understandable that he gave up and it is also understandable that he didn't find a nice speech to pass a strong message to the people.

Actually I wonder, do you really need a strong message when the facts speak for themselves? (Of course yes, because people need it, but would be beautiful if they weren't needed at all)
