I remember reading a story in the Washington Post many years ago, where a Black American soldier was quoted. He was involved in some operation in Africa - may have been Somalia; but someplace where the people don’t generally have West African features.
He said that he encountered women there who made fun of his appearance, especially his nose; and he was quoted as saying, ‘I had to go all the way to Africa to be called a ni??er’.
People who think that the US is a ‘racist’ country have very little experience with the rest of the world. We are probably the LEAST ‘racist’ nation in the world today.
I knew an African guy(Kenya) who thought black Americans were like “untouchables” and they came from the lowest levels of society in Africa. That’s how they ended up slaves. We had to take him out of hiring processes because he was so prejudiced against them.
But he felt that way about most of eastern Africa as well who he considered to be “riotous cannibals”. Strange dude.
