Matt Broomfield’s post ” Grammar school made me a bigot ” for The Tab is a coruscating attack on institutionalised prejudice. This post contains offensive and racist language.
This is Matt Broomfield, 20, from Shrewsbury. He's a student at Oxford University.

I dated a black girl when I was 17. When my school friends found out, some of them laughed openly in my face.
They asked me if her vagina smelt of shit. They made monkey noises. This happened in England in the 21st century.
Specifically, it happened at Adams' Grammar School in Telford.
When one of the three black guys in my year walked into a room, people would sometimes hide their possessions as a joke, because "all n____rs are thieves". People said "n____r" a lot, as a joke.
People said "faggot" a lot too. A friend of mine who left the school a couple of years before me often used this word; I have since heard that he has started sleeping with men at university.
