That's understandable. In all honestly from what I've read, black Americans receive more respect than you would think though of course there are still parts of these countries you would be wise to stay away from. There are also growing black populations in several places like Spain and so on. You should be absolutely fine in most big cities like London, Paris, Berlin, etc. I think about the same thing too.
I've been to Cozumel, Toronto, Montreal, St. Thomas, Jamaica, Grand Cayman Island, St. Thomas, and St.Kitts (where my family is from). I just like home, that's all.
Maybe I do, and I definitely have plans to travel but even then I don't see myself making a long term move if I decided too.
My exact reason for wanting to leave and go nowhere else but Africa.
From what I heard couple countries in Africa are mad racist in terms of your ethnicity. I could be wrong though.
First three years it was strictly for Thai boxing and the last year and some change was spent working bere and there on movies, commercials, and whatever else fell in my lap.
Yes and no.
Good info for real. I personally have zero interest in living in Africa but rather S. Korea or Japan (Im Korean so obviously).Yes and no.
There are 3 major groups down in south africa, specifically Joburg
Black, coloured , and white....
You have quite a few middle easterners out there, too. I'm guessing geographical perspective has to do with that more than anything.
Apartheid just ended 20 years ago, so basically 20% of the whites controlled 80% of the country, while much of the black people scrambled around, lived in poverty, etc.
The middle ground are the coulered folks.
I would compare them to the Creole folks of here.
Most coulored South Africans are the lighter skin tons because they're a mix of black and white africans. They come from a very elitist back ground because they had the benefits of the white people, without exactly being white.
White people accepted the coloureds more than the Black south Africans, so there's MUCH tension between the two.
The funny part is, the coloureds right now aren't really too accepted by the Blacks OR the whites... I'm guessing after years of crapping on the blacks.. when apartheid ended, they tried to scramble back but things weren't kosher.
The coloured women are FINE AS **** because they can have white, black, middle eastern, etc all mixed in.... but you'll see many are poor and uneducated.
The black south africans are fly, too. but some people are just not too keen on african beauty b/c it highlights more africanoid features and not the caucasion features. The chicks have REALLY nice skin (mostly due to their diets) and are built like frickin brickhouses. It's amazing the average woman looks like a damn chick in a 2 Chainz "big booty o" video.
In regards to the business structure, it's still heavily tilted towards white people, but the government has taken a lot of steps to preventing that.
I'm not quite sure of the particulars, but a lot of the businesses that come in have to have native south africans, or black people or something... but there ARE requirements on the makeup of the leadership when it comes to the company.
Black south africans have a legitimate dislike for white people out there (mainly because apartheid). I talked w/ some older black dudes, and they just crapped all on them...
The thing is, it's still not equal, but they've made TREMENDOUS strides. What took us damn near 100 years... they've accomplished in 20. I think the advancement of technology plus looking at the history of america has a lot to do with it.
Any other questions, famb.... lemme know...
My aunt is a native south African... born and raised. They just recently moved to the states.
Yes and no.
