All oyinbos are racist. It doesn't matter how "nice" they appear to be, or what favors they do for you. It is what it is. They're degenerates. I'm sorry you had that experience, but you're better than those people. Don't let that trash stress you out because (1) they're not a priority, and (2) your energy needs to be devoted to things that matter (e.g. career, family, relationships, finances, interests). Protect yourself legally. Record, film, and document incidents. File police reports, call police, report to organizational bodies, report to government agencies and nonprofits that specialize in related issues. Beware of retaliation. Depending on how you report, they may try to interfere with your job, home life, and etc. That just means you should document/record/film more than you report in some cases. Seek out advice from nonprofits on what you should do. Protect yourself. And do not let them bait you into a verbal or physical altercation. Even when you beat their sorry a**, you're only putting yourself at a disadvantage. And it's far more satisfying to see them deal with legal, professional, and social consequences. Make a public example out of them. And remember you have more to lose than them. They're jealous losers. 33 Likes 2 Shares |

AoifeNightfall: My boss was from England... I have helped him spell two or more times when he wasn't with his laptop ... I don't even know what people think English language was... Just one out of many official languages spoken on this planet... Some feels that once u speak fluently or type nicely, that was intelligence...Was that mindset not Inferiority complex at it's best... The Japanese or Chinese who were doing so well around the world can hardly speak English... 73 Likes 11 Shares |

Just be careful, let him not shoot you. This one he already threatened you. I won't advise you to be giving them attitude while still living with them; for safety reasons. Try and move out. Whites don't like to be treated like trash. make them no come kill you for your mama and papa abeg. 42 Likes |

Right001: One just has to be careful and not too trusting when dealing with them, just flow as per normal level. If you say you want to stop associating with white folks because of this lone event, you might miss many opportunities. The one wey dey vex me na that their smile as if they're your friends. In all, just apply wisdom. 7 Likes 1 Share |

I have stayed in Germany for more than 2yrs. By October this year will make it exactly 3yrs. In all my stay in Germany, I have not witnessed any verbal racism like this. Maybe because I am an introvert who likes staying on my own. In my hostel (known as Studentenwohnheim) in German, I am the only black guy in the entire flat and believe me, I don't have issues with any of them, though we don't talk much let alone visit each other's rooms. Only one of the white flatmates has visited me once and I have never visited anyone. Naturally, I find peace and happiness staying alone or maybe with very few trusted friends. I don't like making many friends. I will advise you to minimize too many interactions with them. Our people say "The scarcity of the masquerade makes it more entertaining" Interact only with those that would give you connections and add value to your life, not with those with weird mentality. 97 Likes 8 Shares |

If an average Nigerian can be tribalistic to his fellow countrymen, then what's racism? Even the Doll Test suggest that racism is actually an innate trait, not learned like many assume. If you don't want to be disrespected due to your race, don't goof around. 11 Likes |
