There's a difference between politely asking someone of their heritage in an appropriate space and doing it in a way that's blatantly intentioned as racist/telling her that 'her kind isn't welcome.' If you knew what the name Ngozi means and who the Igbo people really are/how gifted they are you wouldn't be so quick to write her off as just some next black woman from Hackney but you shouldn't write off/indirectly-gaslight people of colour relating their experiences of racism anyway. Your comparison between a white English lady and a "snowflake" black woman (black people have been and go through too much to ever be snowflake-y; that's a white Gen.-Z thing, not something that applies to enterprising and hard-working black people with a lifetime of unnecessary discrimination to boot) in terms of who you think's more reliable is absolutely disgusting. I know you're fond of saying things to bait but at some point you're going to have to sit back and realise how shameful some of your comments and your wilful ignorance are.
