Kent – A South African-born woman says she has been tormented for years by a racist British woman who called her a “black gorilla” who should “go back to your own country”.
Pamela Bower, a black nurse who was born in South Africa, moved to Kent, UK, 16 years ago after seeing a job advertisement, the Times reported.
According to a report in KentOnline, Bower had been good friends with her neighbour, Kellie Wells, 42, who had often visited her to drink wine because she knew the nurse’s husband had a large supply in his cellar.
But soon after Bower’s husband died, she erected a fence between their houses and the abuse started.
Wells allegedly called Bower a “black gorilla” and told her to “take your welly boots and go back to your own country”.
Then in July last year, Wells took a mixture of flour and water and threw it over the fence onto Bower and said “you’re now white British!”…
