[Vietnamization] It isn't racist to fear migration, says the Archbishop of Canterbury: Justin Welby believes it is 'outrageous' to dismiss public's genuine concerns [the immigration situation is Europe and in America is NOTHING compared to what Cambodians have encountered, is encountering, raising constant existential issues -- now compare reactions in light of degree of danger]

The Most Rev Justin Welby (pictured top) said it was 'absolutely outrageous' to condemn people who raised such concerns as racist. In an interview with Parliament's The House magazine, he said that the scale of the migrant crisis meant such anxieties were entirely reasonable. 'Fear is a valid emotion at a time of such colossal crisis. This is one of the greatest movements of people in human history. Just enormous. And to be anxious about that is very reasonable,' he said. 'There is a tendency to say "Those people are racist", which is just outrageous, absolutely outrageous.' The Archbishop said it was essential that the 'genuine fear' that people felt was listened to and resources put in place to address their concerns.
