Oh, that's curious! So, Chile had no plantation slavery of any kind
before the arrival of the Haitian immigrants.

No. It was the poorest of the Spanish colonies so they didn't bring slaves here.

Gbenu re dake SMALL BOY!

Observe and learn when adults are having important conversations!

This is not your local tribal-bashing thread. The topic is about racism and a scum like yourself has no standing to contribute ok.

I was on Nairaland when you were sucking breast before the invention of IPOB by criminal terrorists murderers you support.

Have you finished cannibalising your fellow Igbos to come and discuss racism?

True talk bro
CandidAdmin:
Food for thought - Germans see you as Halmitic race from europe settlers.
Italians see you as illegal immigrants.
North Americans see you as non-human apes.
Japan see Africa as continent in need of help. So as China.
China see you as black faces with bad luck.
US see you as primitive and full of disease. They also see Africa as a jungle full of wild animals.
Australians see you as primitive.
Koreans see you as people without water and basic amenities as depicted in the movie shooting stars.
Some people see Africans as fraudsters especially Nigerians. Also see Africa one poor country.

Stereotyper of Africa gotten from wikipedia.

I just talk say make I remind you ni ooo. No pun intended.

Go and play in the sand with your mates you small-minded village tribalist.

I have a meeting to attend. I will come back and continue to educate you OK. You are not a totally hopeless case. I believe I can still help you.

You will be shocked to see an African working in these offices, and the white colleagues would be making racist comments and the African would be smiling and laughing with them, not even realising they are being racist and dehumanising him.

That’s why they prefer to hire Africans. They are simple and naive with a racial inferiority complex, and whites love that, unlike the Afro Americans who fought them for centuries and know exactly what they are about, and will take no rubbish from them, including their racism.

It's not just Africans. There are a lot of Black Americans who do the same. They think they are different and will be seen different. That by going a long they will be liked. It's sad. I see a lot of them in this forum as well.

Tim Scott is a good case in example.

The Canadian Governement recognizes that minority face subtle racism or everyday racism daily. And you are here telling the world that you have been living in Canada for 4 years without experiencing any racism !!! Something doesn't add up somewhere.

May I please ask what you do for living?

I'm sorry, but you're experiences aren't representative.
1954 - Brown v. Board of education - desegregated schools
1964 - Civil Rights Act
1965 - Voting Rights Act
1968 - Civil Rights Act
So your argument is that in ~60 years all the racist people who were alive died off and the racism they thought their children faded out as well? I assume every white person over the age of 65 has/had racist inclinations. Serves me well.
And where would you live that race wouldn't be a problem?

Now you are mixing things
The OP talked about experiencing racism which is day to day living . He did not ask if USA didn’t have racist laws.

The racist laws existed because racist people created them and kept them. Those racist people who fought to keep them. (Like Jerry Jones the owner of the Cowboys), are still alive. And furthermore, their kids who I'm sure picked up on their racism are alive. And you are arguing the hearts of those racist people and their children just changed. No, they didn't.

Two of my neighbors are much older, white and grew up in the racially tense times of my city. I know they had/have racist inclinations. In fact one talks about how he grew up in those racist times. They are great neighbors. I mean great, we golf together, access to each other's yards/tools, snowblow each others houses. But, once in a while they'll say something pseudo-racist, like one of their retirement dinners when they were cracking on some Mexicans they met on vacation. And, I'll check them. And they'll agree. I leave it as that's what they know from how they grew up and as long as they are willing to challenge and grow in that area, we can be friends.

Nigerian based abroad, please share your experience with racist or when you are being discriminated because of your color.



Note: This is not an Anti Japa thread.
Truth is most Nigerians will not recognize racism except it is a blatant and probably violent racism. We're already practicing pseudo racism here to ourselves. We hate other tribes and stereotype each other already. So we're thick skinned to what the average European/American black man call racism.

I'm curious tho, do these people have a genuine reason to be scared of backs. Aside the stereotype, have black people been harming or robbing these guys?

Trust me if you're not black, you will be skeptical of blacks too from the way the Media and Movies portray us. And of course no thanks to our notorious scammers too

So, because there are scammers from some African countries, all black people all over the world should be victims of that stereotype? Are we applying that same standard to the tens of thousand of Indian scammer stealing billions of dollars from the West? Why aren't people painting every Indian and their diaspora with that brush? Or do you guys just like to reach deep into your asses to support other people's racism against you?
