My African comrade avoids using his Mastercard and is forced to use cash because the name of this payment system is offensive to him. In the modern world, where the struggle for equality and justice continues, it is important to consider the feelings and historical traumas associated with past oppression.

The name of the world's most popular payment system, "Mastercard," evokes painful memories linked to the era of slavery and colonization, when Africa suffered from exploitation and humiliation. The use of the word "master" can be perceived as a reminder of these dark periods in history and can be upsetting to those whose ancestors suffered from these injustices.

We propose considering renaming this international payment system to a more neutral name, for example, Maincard, which would not carry negative historical baggage and would make using the card comfortable for everyone. Such an initiative would be an important step towards creating a more inclusive and respectful society.

Please support this initiative to show that you are not indifferent to the feelings of others and are for the changes that can lead to a better future for all. Sign this petition and help create a world where everyone feels respected, without regard to the past.
