23-year-old Hellen Nyabuto drowned while livestreaming on facebook
She died Aug. 18 while swimming at a hotel pool in Chatsworth, a township in Ontario. Her death is not considered suspicious, a spokesman for the Ontario Provincial Police said on a Wednesday.
In the footage, Nyabuto smiled at the camera before going for a swim into the deep end of the pool. The video showed Nyabuto struggling in the water as she called out for help. The video then went silent.

It's goes back to segregation. Black people weren't allowed in pools, and not many parks in Black neighborhoods had pools.

i don't see what a body of water has to do with segregation, you don't need a pool to swim, just as you don't need a pool to drown.

ahh yes, i'm a bigot to some. i believe the historical facts don't get me wrong, but i don't believe in repeating history by keeping people -in- the past, especially when people from my generation were never there to begin with.
still my comment stands that you don't need a pool to drown. LMAO
but, as far as my ignorance on segregation with pools: i believe your statement as shit was fucked up back then - it does not surprise me one bit.
i just hate people who always pull the race card, it's a pet peeve one could say, and that's coming from a person of color. so my bad on my lack of sympathy or regard, i don't pity the past.

The type of "POC" that really wants to be white but will never be accepted.
