In Racism's Last Word Derrida wrote that a liberal economy would cast
racism aside, simply because it wasn't economically optimal. With Mario
Ballotelli-Barwuah you could say that his record demonstrates his value,
also in economic terms. That's the reason clubs still sign him for millions
of Euros.
Claims of racism has gone both ways in his case.
All the best.

Did you go away for a while? In that case you might have missed the
his contract at Brescia was recently terminated after having been absent
from training. However, this not the first time the striker with 36 caps
and 14 goals for Italy has made the news.
Sometimes I see what a post’s aim is; sometimes I don’t have enough
background information to understand. In this case I have been reading
about Mario Ballotelli-Barwuah for years, delved into his upbringing for
clues, followed how often he has recently been subject to racist chants,
wondered whether he will ever land somewhere his talents will blossom. So
yes, I think I know the story, but I don’t understand him at all. Perhaps
that is what you want to point out, that some narratives completely fail to
reveal?
