Nigerian Actor Raywonda Becomes First Nigerian Celebrity To Publicly Condemn H&M by 411Scope: 6:29pm On Jan 12, 2018
Nigerian born actor Raymond "Raywonda" Samuel, who is also called The Nigerian Wesley Snipes, has taken to his Instagram account to condemn what he called "racial insensitivity" by H&M. He revealed previously unknown details about his childhood and how those series of experiences affected his career choice.



In what was a very sincere and touching post, he had this to say:
"
I remember growing, I was always teased and picked on by my mates and seniors for being so dark and black. I was always upset and dreaded going to school, I felt weird and was mad at God for giving me this color. In those early days the only place outside my home I was appreciated was at the market.

I was always eager to accompany my elder sister to market because the market woman and area boys knew how to raise my spirit. I was called black and shine, hugged and admired by those so-called illiterates who despite their troubles took time to make a little boy feel good about himself. Black and Shine was a lot different from charcoal, blackboard and the other unsavory names I was called at school.

Over time, I learnt to build my confidence and be proud about my color. I discovered I have a bold face that shields my emotion and attracts attraction. This discovery directly or indirectly influenced my decision to pursue a career in entertainment and today, thanks to God, I am doing very well for myself. At this point I would like to condemn the racial insensitivity and discrimination of H&M, a company of that stature should be well advised.
