“A #racistattack nearly left me without an eye,” actor Marius Makon posted on Twitter. “ #Racism will never defeat us, love, love and love.” #MariusMakon , who was born in #Cameroon and is also known as #EltonPrince , was referring to a Saturday assault in Madrid that left him bruised and bloodied. According to a Facebook post by Makon, the #actor and his #friends had stepped up to order coffee early Saturday when a couple approached him. “I don’t want black people in this place or in front of me,” the woman, 33, reportedly said. Makon wrote that he tried to de-escalate the situation, telling her, “I will only be here for a moment and then I’m leaving. I don’t have any interest in staying near you for long.” The woman then reportedly called him a “black piece of s---.” When he asked her to calm down, he wrote, she began attacking him with a glass bottle. She hit him twice on the head, Makon said, causing a cut and other injuries that required seven stitches. “I’m white,” she allegedly said. “I can kill you and nothing will happen.” He's good I would've beat her Ass real good all the way into tomorrow 👌 The owners of the restaurant intervened and called police. When authorities arrived, they briefly detained the woman but released her after she gave a statement. The #SpanishImmigration and Refugee Support Network has urged Madrid prosecutors to investigate the incident as a hate crime . #WhatsHerName #ShowHerPicture #ArrestHer for the #HATECRIME , #ASSAULTANDBATTERY “Now I am in my house and I look through these images [of his injuries] I do not feel any hate towards the woman,” Makon posted on Facebook. “I want to say that I am not angry with her and I don’t know why. I am sad that she feels such hate, that she lives with hate. It saddens me that she does not enjoy life.... About 1 million people of #Africanorigin live in Spain, and many say racism is a near-daily reality. In interviews conducted by the #Spanishnewspaper #ElPais , members of the #blackcommunity in #Spain reported being told such things as “Go back to your … country,” “I don’t #rentapartments to people like you,” “If you shower, do you lose your color?” and “Your cousins are monkeys.”
