I went to see a movie on Wednesday 4th January 2023 with my family. I had purchased 6 tickets. The movie and setting was amazing as it always is when we attend. Unfortunately there was a racist incident with my children and your staff member at Galileo. I was quite horrified and disgusted to see that racism exists amongst your crew member and when I approached him, he gave me his name Andre and I then learned that he is the manager. I would seriously look into this as I am sure it's not the first time. To give a quick summary: my daughters were sitting on the rocks and he approached then with an attitude saying they are not allowed to sit there. Now I was watching them the whole time so I could see what was going down. 2min later some white children were sitting on the very same rocks and Andre(Galileo manager) had just left them. So to test what I had a bad feeling about. I sent my daughters back to the rocks to sit on them. He didn't even wait 2 seconds to approach them and tell them to get away. I am purely disgusted with this. It's okay for white children to sit on the rocks and not okay for my colored Muslim children to sit there. Myself and my husband approached Andre and his whole attitude changed as he then realised that we had been watching our kids the entire time. I will never allow my kids to be disgraced like this. We should be living in a racist free country but yet racism still exists and at such a prestigious place. This was Unfortunately very very upsetting. I hope that the Galileo and it's staff members Andre in particular are addressed about this and that this never happens to any other children ever again purely because they are not white.
