i am actually so proud to say that, in our household, we do not have a migrant domestic worker anymore. yes, in the previous years we did have one. but i'm so proud and i say it out loud, that we've ruled out the concept of-
having a foreign worker who comes from a deprived country & vunlerable racial minority in our household. and taking that decision took a lot of time from both of my parents, because our daily demands and life in lebanon in general is not as easy.
the concept of having a foreign worker to clean up after our shit has been so normalized and reinforced in our culture, that most of us lebanese are not aware of the negative consequences that will imply from such normalization & this thread says it all https://twitter.com/jaaacksaveme/status/1266281510820167680?s=20
