Karlovych: And I never said the aren't. My point was the Scandinavians, and Europeans as a whole are the least racist and the most loving people on Earth. Go and do your research well. Excluding England though. There are some small countries you will arrive in at Europe they will welcome you as if you are there long lost son. They see blacks as celebrities and would outrightly tell you they don't have much blacks as tourist thought the year. The United State you talked about was not very far that list. Former Racism index report (2020/2021) showed the U.S were one of the worst. They have always been topping the chart for the worst. See picture below for yourself. This is U.S site condemning their country for racism. And as you can see the fell into the 69th place. I like arguing with fact. That how gentlemens argue not based on speculations or rumours. I understand you though (when you said prepare your mind). Ofcourse it what every right thinking person should prepare his or her mind for. Come to think of it, the racism I experience in Nigeria, Especially as an Igbo, I don't think it's anything compared to what I will be facing there. So I will take it.

Uncle, if you really wrote this, even while asleep, one has got to wonder how you came to be doing Masters. I think you should be doing JS1 |

Right001: Oga your first writeup is bad for a Masters candidate if is even true. Instead of you to take correction and improve on this aspect which will also help your education you are defending yourself with another diaster. If u continue to write your tests, exams and projects like this when you see your results nor shout racism o. @Topic: Racism is one of the things u ought to know you will have to deal with in a white man's land. Always watch your back but don't burn your bridges. You are in their country, you need them they don't need you abi you come back to 9ja? Respect and don't force yourself on anyone. Work on your emotional strength. Dey package as your power reach. Face wetin carry you go there. Not all Brits are rascist. |

firstratedcitiz: Don't mind them! Hypocrites! As if we love ourselves in this country. A northerner selling onions was hit by a runaway driver, those around refused to take him to the hospital. The most wicked part is that the general hospital is just a stonethrow away, before some of my colleagues got here he was already gone. That day I hated my fellow deltans. 1 Like 1 Share |

zolajpower: Just this afternoon I was supervising a project that I have been doing with an institution when one of the staff spoke their local dialect to me, I told her that I am still to understand the local dialect. The next thing she said was " how come they gave this contract to a stranger." I subtly gave her an epic reply. she tactfully change the conversation. |

crisycent: What has English got to do with master's? I'm confused, do they teach people English language in Universities apart from electives in 100 level. Just in case you don't know. What determines your proficiency in English is your formative years. You can just improve later, if you didn't attend a good pry and sec School, you are done for. It doesn't matter the university you attend except you decide to learn it on your own. My point is, it has nothing to do with your level of advanced education. |

michaelwestern: Why is English language required to gain admission into the university? |
Re: Experience My First Racism In U. K From Someone Who I Thought Was My Friend. by michaelwestern(m): 12:02pm On Feb 23, 2022 |
crisycent: There's a difference between being able to pass an English exam and knowing how to construct a grammatically correct sentence. A science student does not have any opportunity or incentive to learn English language in the university except for personal development. Just be grateful that you had the opportunity to learn it growing, i know you probably speak it at home with your parents and siblings. Some people were taught in primary school with their native tongues. |

Jaqenhghar:This is rich coming from someone who calls people Niggerians. If white people are racist to you, good for them and consider it a privilege because they allowed you in their country |

pocohantas: Ignorance is indeed a disease. Inferiority complex at it's highest. Where else should be our safe zones if not Nigeria? Does Nigeria not belong to Nigerians? Just a simple Google search will tell you which gender suffers racism more. You have no idea the number of black women that have been shot while sleeping in their homes or in their cars by white cops. For every black man that have suffered racism there are 8 black or asian women (yes asian women are being targeted more than black men) who have suffered more. You know why? Bcuz men are more difficult to bully even by their fellow men. Women are easier prey. I'm pretty sure you can't even hurl insults at a random man in real life without expecting grave repercussions. Black & asian women don't only get racial slurs, they get killed or go missing. I can assure you that even as a white woman (which you aren't unfortunately) you'll need to think twice before you even try to throw racial slurs at a black man cuz you might get your jaw knocked off its joints. You know how violent the black community can get. So you see, black women are getting an ample dose of what you wish on black men. Fortunately. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Geminiboi: Thank you for buttressing what I already said. Anyway, I feel so bad for these women because like you rightly confirmed, it is mostly black men hitting and killing them. Someday, I might be able to feel some pity for these men, but until then, my heart goes out to the women. Do have a lovely day. 2 Likes |

Geminiboi:pocohantas is as ignorant as they come. Her world outlook has been clouded by her disappointing relationships with men Everything about her is hate...she might try to mask it well but that womanl is a dripping bag of emotions and ignorance! One of Nairaland's most vocal ignoramus driven solely by men hate! 6 Likes |
