Teater Ekamatraโs Artistic Director, Shaza Ishak, restages Charged, its 2010 play on racism in the SAF, at Funan from 23rd July till 2nd August. Ishak recounts a lawyer who denied racism exists in Singapore, then made his only Indian colleague answer for it in front of the team, plus her academic study which revealed that victims of racism are trained to minimise their own experiences.
