Thanks for speaking out Michelle. Ive had similar experiences in a different Spiritualist church in a different country. Nothing as openly rude as yours however Ive experienced cold shouldering, negative references to colour, not engaging in conversation except to fixate on the "where are you from (country of ancestry) why are you here" type questions. Ive experienced it elsewhere too but seems particularly so with Spiritualists. It made me wonder if racism is part and parcel of their belief system itself but Ive found no concrete evidence of it. Having said that two people in a group of 30 were friendly enough to fall in the category of "normal" human beings and willing to treat me as an individual but two is not many and even these two dont notice or they seem to tolerate the behavior of the majority of them.
