Fashion designer and actress Masaba Gupta recently discussed the enduring impact of racism on her father, legendary cricketer Sir Viv Richards, during an interview with Faye D'Souza. She revealed that her father still experiences deep emotional responses, often tearing up or showing rage when reflecting on the racial prejudices he faced throughout his career in cricket, a time when such discrimination was rampant. Masaba emphasized that racism remains a pervasive issue, stating, 'It’s there, everywhere. It'll keep being spoken of until we fight for it.' Additionally, she shared her own experiences with societal pressure regarding her unborn child's skin tone, recounting unsolicited advice to ensure her child is 'lighter' in complexion. This personal struggle reflects broader societal attitudes that persist today, highlighting the need for collective action against racism. Masaba's candid revelations shed light on both her father's legacy and her own challenges in navigating societal expectations.
