Being Black in the EU – Experiences of people of African descent
“Almost half of people of African descent in the EU face racism and discrimination in their daily life – a rise since 2016. Racist harassment and ethnic profiling are also common, especially for young people, finds a new survey from the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA)”

Germany being european master, wooooo. Oh, wait.
Just had lunch with an ex-pat friend visiting from Germany. They said Germans as a whole are so much more unabashed about their racism compared to Americans. America is racist, but race is such a tiptoe topic because of our history and institutional problems.
They said living in Germany is wild. They encounter so much casual racism it’s shocking (compared to the Southern US too). And the people have this arrogant notion that because they “learned” from the Holocaust, they can’t possibly be racist. They’re above any criticism.
Spot on. It’s wild here.
the same satantically racist west that gave rise to the Great Satan and all its other settler colonies is still irredeemably racist?
Not doubting the research in any way, but I’m surprised that people are basically just as likely to make a rude comment as they are to physically attack. Pretty scary statistic
This chart posted is the % of respondents who are worried about those types of attacks happening to them, not the rates that those attacks are taking place.
Ok that makes sense I was confused

Portugal seems rather low considering the first hand accounts I’ve heard from there.
