anybody got any stories they wanna go in depth with regarding the racism they have encountered outside of North America? I'll take some second hand accounts too if you got em
When I was in Hungary last year I met a French guy of African decent and his white French girlfriend when we were out one night after leaving a club some a$$holes started yelling heil hitler at us. He had a few other run ins while he was there really screwed up his holiday. I wouldn't go back to Hungary for a number of reasons though. I'm light skinned (it was also winter) and never had any problems but people really don't know what I am. I even had people try and talk to me in Hungarian. I lived in Spain for a year, but traveled a lot. England, Austria, Morocco, France, Italy and never faced any discrimination. Again people can't really figure out what I am so I'm usually spoken to in the local dialect unless I'm speaking English. Like another guy said it's all about how you carry yourself. There's a lot of backlash because of illegal African immigrants in Europe right now due to the poor economic situation and crime.
no black people and people kept staring at us. We went to a pizzeria to watch the world cup and they sat us in a remote corner lol. I've also been to Athens and I got mad love there so idk if they're racist, I also went to smaller islands like Mykonos, Crete, and Santorini and got love there too so idk. Some of my friends studied abroad in Hungary and Croatia and said that it was racist, not so sure about Russia though, I have a few Russia friends and they're cool as hell




. I hate to generalize, but Russia seems like they harbor a bunch of violent sociopaths, and when you combine that with their racism, you now have the last place on earth a brother would want to be at.
