The family was in a restaurant when a customer, white, attacked children between the ages of 7 and 9 in a cowardly manner, with racial slurs. A family of Angolan tourists who were nearby were also abused. In the photos that spread on the networks, Giovanna firmly confronts the woman.
“It was the first time my daughter had seen me fight racism face to face, because we talk to them a lot about it, but she never saw me fight face to face like it happened. She was so scared. Lots noticed, because he was joking. But Titi understood everything,” as he says.
Eubank cried very emotionally when she spoke about the racism her children suffer from. She also highlighted the fact that she was able to defend her children without experiencing reprisals for being white.
“It’s so cruel to think that Titi and Bliss, who are 9 and 7 years old, must be really strong. Don’t think of anything at all,” he said with a sigh.
Giovanna Eubank on the racist attack on her children: “Would she get all that attention if we were black parents to black kids?”
