I know that media makes it seem that America has the worst race relations in the world, but as a minority I can say that
- Americans have decades of PC training so they don’t openly say racist stuff like Europeans and not even be aware of it (in Germany, for instance, had a man slant his eyes when referring to Chinese people)
- there’s blatant discrimination against Arabs and blacks there that fly under the radar in America because Europeans think they are better
- Americans at least have half the country pretending to care about racial equality, where homogenous countries in Europe don’t give these issues as much coverage
I don’t think there’s no single place or country without racism - but just wanted to put to rest the notion that somehow Europe is some minority sanctuary. I for one feel uncomfortable visiting Hamburg than Oklahoma
