East Germany. Racist?

Just a question.

i was aware that spain had issues and i was aware that france has issues. But what about Germany. I guess East Germany is not so friendly towards brown people? If so can someone educate me as to why?

Somebody from Germany please give me the 411! Is it true and why?

 

racist is universal

 

true that but if you look at this presentation here.



http://forum-network.org/lecture/being-black-germany


this man leads you to believe that germany has a small problem and is more multi-cultural but apparently its a perspective issue? but is it an issue of the west vs the east.

because articles and news reports contradict what he says.

 

Well this thread here talks about Germany.

http://community.justlanded.com/en/Germany/forum/Racism-in-Germany---how/2

this thread is a good thread because lots of different types of people come into the thread from different countries and they all have different opinions.

 

I know that for years. East Germany is one place a brother does not want to set foot in.

 

There is no East Germany, not anymore.

 

speaking of racisim in germany has anyone ever read this story of a black man attacked while with his wife and kids in a cafe?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1208689/Black-British-man-attacked-Germany-son-4-supporters-far-right-party.html

 

I remember reading that story years back.

 

True dat.

 

everywhere is racist, damn it.....as a black man you gotta swirl and keep up the good fight. there is no magic place to swirl. you have to create it for yourself.

Oh I wished there is a DVD of that flick.

 

Is this why some (well more than some) White Women want some Thugged Out Nicca?

Just out of county on a 211 bid? What's this Swirl nonsense, this shit isn't cute at all.

FYI everywhere is NOT racist. What you find is idiots everywhere and the United States of American can not be surpassed as the most Openly Racist Country on the Planet Earth.

Denied recognizing the newly freed republic of Haiti

Continued Slavery long after much of Western Europe's Colonial Powers had given up the practice.

Allowed Grant to Botch reconstruction after the Civil War and began 150 years of Jim Crow

As soon as the final Civil Rights laws were signed, the Mass Media Started the campaign to paint Black People are shiftless, lazy people and highlighted "Welfare Moms" who would show up to the Welfare Office in a brand new Caddy, as confirmed by Professor Melissa Harris-Perry of Princeton and respected author Tim Wise.

Unofficial Unemployment -

White America 12%

Black America 52%

The United States can not be topped as the most racist country its just not possible.

 

There are a few ignorant and racist people pretty much everywhere in the world. Me living in Germany I can guarantee you that is not the norm here. Just some sad individuals..but again you got a few of those in any place in the world

 

this is good news. what's your take on the multi-cultural aspect of germany? somebody on the news has said that multi-culturalism has failed in germany. is that true?

 

As far as the relationship between German women and Black men are concerned,Multiculturalism has never failed.

 

Like most people already said: there's racism almost everywhere.

But regarding Germany there unfortunately still is a distinct emphasis of racist
encroachments in the eastern parts like Cottbus, Potsdam or Brandenburg.

During world cup back in 2006 there even was a travel warning not to set foot in those regions if you are dark-skinned - and that was not without reasons.
While studying I got some statistics about that. And some of the stories are really disgusting.

I don't want to scare away anybody but sadly this is reality

However on the whole it's just a small bunch of people.
Just pay a visit to Bavaria - we're cool here

 

ok.....:smt096

 

I had been to Bayern many times and loved it. I very rarely visit the Eastern part of Germany and the towns I've visited are Leipzig and Nordhousen.
