I know that its a melting pot.. I just didn't know if 'blk European' was the correct wording or if that should be reserved more so for an american Blk who moves there.. And an African who moves should be called '_African european' I'm confused about the titles...
I asked cus I remember blks born and raised in Europe liking me, Africans who had moved there.. And American blks who had moved there.. But wasn't sure about what to call them all |
that would be quite confusing since europe is made up of different countries. im thinking even if they did have labels, it would be specific to countries (spanish black...british black?), nah, come to think of it, none of that would make sense...

my niece has lived in France for the better part of 20 years...i should ask her about racism there ...white folk just effed up all around. i cant imagine them not being racist, anywhere | My ex love is French, I thought he was going to be a stuck up ass type, he was okay.
 Like someone said she could of just said white, that's what I was thinking.

sh*t I don't even know...
I was used to AAs and Africans from different countries growing up
people would ask if I was from their country (Ghana, Liberia, etc...)
then I moved up north and was asked if I was Haitian, Jamaican, etc...
there are so many types of black
I know my co worker is from a small town (I think) but I'm not sure how to ask from more details
I only want to ask out of curiosity

oh, nationalities...
hm.....she may not be offended by the question, depending on where shes from

Why is it that whenever a Black woman gets attention from people of other races people black people are so quick to label it as a "fetish"? It’s basically like your subconsciously saying you don't believe a black woman can be considered as attractive to nonblack people unless it’s something sexual. There was an interesting article on this regarding Lupita Nyongo and I agree with it 100%. Seems like we are our own worst enemy when it comes to black beauty. SMH
