Currently living in the United States, Gabriela Sarifah opened her heart and recalled some cases of racism that she witnessed during these three years. In an interview with “CARAS” magazine, the actress said that she feels very difficult being an immigrant in the country.
“Racism itself is terrible, and seeing it happen up close with a member of your family hurts me so much,” she said, recalling an incident in which a man described his brother as a monkey. “My heart started pounding. It was as if the world had collapsed in front of me. I went straight to talk to the manager, we signed a bunch of papers, but nothing came of it.”
Known for her role as Tati in the second version of the TV series “Chiquititas” on SBT, the brunette indicated that her mother also receives some abusive comments. “We’ve also witnessed other kinds of prejudice. For example, my mother says she’s Brazilian and the other person’s reaction is: ‘hum, caliente.’ Of wanting to get close and grab. It’s hard for you to be an immigrant. We’re learning to deal with it,” he said. “.
