this was...ignorant as hell. such a great opportunity ruined.
Tarek Ali honestly
Tarek Ali yeh this was pretty terrible.
@Tarek Ali - Your own videos are so much more interesting, keep up the good work!!
Yes!
I don't believe he was trying to be ignorant. I believe he was just saying it as an expression
This guy brings his own issues in France.
I know right! People didn't even wanted talk to him
He Things USA its he World..its your history not my country history
Oh fuck yeah what is he wearing
He's the black eyed pea that didn't cut the salad
He's a fool
"you talk white"... sigh the ignorance
No you talk stupid so sign , oops sorry leave you imprint! He tells you truth but no profit in that. Your on a mission of identity of a past that never was. truth is painful.
Joe leblanc I'm a chinese language student and my mandarin exam last friday was easier to decipher than whatever you just said bro...
Emma Kim Well it takes more than an exam in Mandarin to understand but at least I know speaking to one that should that "M" anderine starts with a capital letter. If you were not then I understand. You are not ignorant thus must be stupid!
Joe leblanc Oh my god, this is just- *laughing with too much tears to even finish sentence*. Oh, the irony! The unbelievable amount of contradictions and incorrect grammar in all your comments is just laughable. Where did you go to school? Did you even go to school? Are you even a native English speaker or at least a fluent one? Because it, for sure as hell, seems like you aren't..
SvenSinsSista Play your BS to any other fool as my English is fine. I understand the game you idiots play to try to "act" the educated but truth is you are not. If you are so smart then tell me the errors? OOPs!! I guess you do not know that writing in bullets is too far above your level of thinking. Oh yes thinking is too difficult. Let me correct you . Starting with "god" is God. "Laughing to much tears" ; It is too many tears! "All your comments is"; it is all your comments are! "did you even go to school" , It is did you ever go to school! "Are you even a native", the word even is not used or necessary and such is typical to a ghetto child! Are you from the ghetto child? "Because it, for sure as hell, seems like you aren't" Oh my God every sentence and you are critical of my grammar! The sentence should be; it seems that you are not familiar with the English language. You have a grammar error in every sentence you wrote!! LMAO! ha ha ha!! Oh My God! I assure you that my education level is far beyond yours. Study bullets for writing if you are able as it is commonly used in science and in the military as well as businesses. You are laughing at me?? The irony is correct and you are too damn stupid to even see it is your grammar. I also know it is a tactic idiots play when they are beaten to the argument so bye bye moron.
This guy is cringe. Doesn't know how to conduct an interview.
Worst part is he thinks he's funny.
Race is an issue everywhere but more so in the US!! People of mixed heritage are not referred to as black in Europe instead, they are referred to as "mixed' which is what they are!!
it seems that in the usa they see only two categories: you are black or white. there is no in between. halle berry, Beyoncé and mariah carrey are NOT black. they are mixed. I've heard that they think that if you have a drop of african blood you are black....than we are all black, doesn't make sense to mee.... maybe they are a shamed to say mixed?
+Lieselot Holownia Beyonce is black. Her being light completed doesn't make her mixed. her parents look like most black american parents.
Her mother is not black
Lieselot Holownia Her mom is a black woman. Yes she has admixture like a whole lot of us because of colonial American slavery where so many women were raped. Her mom is just like my mom, Am I not black. Creole doesn't mean she isn't black. If she isn't black then what is she.
Thats the "problem". "If she isn't black what is she?" Then she is mixed. Green is not blue and not yellow. Green is green.
"You talk white" ......didn't know "white" was a language and that someone could speak/talk "white".
You know what it is .. you are just playing coy... if you talk ebonics , you aint taking white. if you use aint when writing, you aint writing white. if you can articulate and enunciate well, then you are talking white.
@@CrakenFlux so there's no way for a black person to speak proper English without talking white?
@@sowhat... if a black person speaks proper english, he is "talking white". that is their lingo, not mine. the less well endowed intellectually never let the best rise from their miasmatic midsts without a fight.
@@sowhat... black speech is very much like alabama poor white speech, and surprisingly, has some similarities with the speech common to some parts of england, i forget which.
@@CrakenFlux good God stfu! You people and y'alls race baiting bullshit
I'm Mexican American, the Mexicans don't accept me because I don't speak Spanish, white people dont accept me because I'm Mexican... Stuck in the middle..
+Nick Pasillas u should no scope someone in cs:go and upload it to twitch. i think you're gonna be president in about 2 weeks. gl hf
then learn spanish xD
In Africa you would be considered white
+acammtt
I'm just saying that in places like Africa and the Caribbean even the most mixed Hispanics would be considered white. In Haiti anyone lighter than a brown paper bag is white because the French colonists had a different racial system than America.
+KimbayesStephenno95 Lol lies. That's not how we classify someone as "white
I think in France, our mentality is better, in the Constitution it's write that there is only one human race, we don't use " race " to talk about your origins, religion, the color of your skin etc...
Also France is a very multicultural country but there is racism everywhere.
+BoneCrusher true dude as a black my self I really wish people can stop worrying and talking about race
+BoneCrusher I know that too. we're all humans. And why can't we all just get along
So why you did Haiti so bad? Hmmm!
N'importe quoi, on nous a légué un modèle Républicain qui est un trésor pour le vivre ensemble, sauf qu'aujourd'hui notamment les jeunes ne comprennent absolument rien au modèle français, la France n'est justement pas multiculturelle, elle a toujours rejeté ce modèle nauséabond. Les jeunes prônent aujourd'hui le modèle multiculturaliste croyant qu'il est vecteur de tolérance et de vivre ensemble alors que c'est exactement l'inverse, vous prônez un poison que vous prenez pour un remède
si tu le dis...
It was very sad when the creator of this video tried to imposed the American obsession with race on French people. In France it is not proper to identify people by color of skin. He tried that with a Frenchman of African origin, but the Frenchman told him in plain English that he was French and not black. I wish America would adopt the French system. Obviously black (excuse the adjective) French people have much better self-esteem than Americans.
Redsq Rds In America not a day goes by when blacks try to tell others there is racism. For the love of God how many times must the issue of racism be raised? Even though racism has decreased a LOT Americans have a much lower self esteem that their counterparts in France. Lastly seeing racism where there is not implies that some blacks actually believe in the supremacy of whites.
@@julian65886 Late comment, but I just wanted to say that I 100% agree and that is so true!
Do not misunderstand race with nationalism. It is not a matter of ''system'' but biology. If you have black blood and you look black, you're black!
USA is third world.
n'importe quoi. ce déni vis à vis de la question raciale en France est insupportable.
I was in France recently and I do think America is more racist
By far.
and violent.
joshua phillipss it's a good thing I don't watch to much tv I prefer to travel to see for my own eyes....on the train on my way from Paris to London 2 American family's on the train started chatting one from Indiana one from Boston guess what all they did was talk shit on Paris how dirty how it smelled like piss how so many Africans were there how there dam rude, like not giving a fuck the train had French people on I swear I liked thought no wonder euros talk some mad shit on us.....
Natalia S She is for me!
joshua phillipss thank you 😊 darling
"Real french white man?" So an African is not a real french man? Like you're sitting here projecting prejudice throughyour own commentary. I was with you until you made that comment.
Oma Nessence No, the black man is African, he is not French.
+Michael Faulkenborough But he was born and raise in France, he even said he don't really see himself as African.
Julia Ivonne
He is an African and always will be.
I understand that, but then again he was born and raise in another country
We don't have the same rules here in europe. In usa, all sorts of people have always lived there so it's just natural that there aren't a typical american look. If you're born and raised in america you're an american. In europe however, you can't just become french, swedish or spanish because these are cultural heritages. Your nationality might be french, but i do not consider a non-european person french. This doesn't mean we hate these people but that's just how it is.
Bro stop bringing the "American issues" to a country that is nowhere near America. Show some respect! Take the first plane back to America asap!
He is so annoying with his obsession with race, he made me sick
Pretty funny because genetically he's probably more white than he his black
It honestly annoyed me too as a half black man. Morgan Freeman has the right idea of just not talking about it.
I'm greatly annoyed by those American dudes who are only a quarter black and talk to you as if you were their "African bro", telling you that you can't be French cause you're not white and so on. Does he know that Alexandre Dumas, the author of "The 3 Musketeers" was just as black as him? Does he know that Dumas' black father was a French general in Napoleon's army? Who are they to tell us who the French are? French people are just the way they are. If that doesn't fit someone's representation of French people, then just readapt it.
The point of the fucking video was to ask did you read the fucking title
Yup. Just your typical race baiting fuck
If your not from america, then how would you be African american? (Saying this to the girl who said she doesn't see herself as it) Also, the black guy in the grey coat is French to me, but if they asked me what color was he I'd say black
+Summer Sunshine I definitely agree with you about how Black Americans or black american people who identify as African American choose not to live in other countries where they have the skills, talents, and networking to take advantage of the various opportunities. Very well said Summer Sunshine!!!!!
+Summer Sunshine You would be surprised at the amount of black americans who live abroad.
+Summer Sunshine Actually she was borne in Nigeria and moved from there when she was 18.
+Summer Sunshine She said herself she was born in Nigeria and moved to America when she was 18 so she doesn't consider herself African American.
+freedomm "she doesn't consider herself African American." She's right. She's not. But her children will be.
Is this a comedic perspective of race in America? Because this guy sounds so Prejudice against anyone who doesn't have black skin color.
+Richard T He didn't say a single bad or unkind word about non-blacks.
Mentioning race in france is actually very racist. It is the interviewer who seems racist to them. You can't go around saying black and white. THEY ARE FRENCH. When the girl at 2:43 mentioned this aloud, she was telling the truth. Why is it so hard to understand?
-Lissa- oh wow that’s actually pretty cool bc here in America we refer to each other as black or white not in a racist why but just because we’re all Americans! Skin color shouldn’t matter but unfortunately it’s America we’re talking about so it does!
Yes he kinda seems racist
I love france, they never had slaves, and they treat us like humans and don’t care
@@fraise_fraud They had slaves in America and in the Antilles so what you saying is false. But yeah american people seem more raaacist
@@HappinessYata someone said that to me, I am so confused, who should I believe
The only racist person that I see on this video is the American mix race guy with the microphone.
Exactly!
I'm thinking he being satirical?
How's that he's keeping it real to me and blacks can't be racist we don't have the power to oppress another race on how you feel about them only whites do it and have such power
It always be them bright skin niggas
@@achill69 nigga what
That pretty girl from Nigeria is the brightest and most insightful person of this video.
Nigerians are very educated people
@@The_Harylaba She has a native-like command of English.
African Americans are obsessed with race and it's very sad. I am a Dominican girl who have experience more racism coming from blacks than whites. When black people see me they always have to bring the race thing up and i dont feel comfortable because i was not raised like that, i am just a Spanish person with different mixtures of races and not just black. How would your parents feel if your mom is black and your father is white and you choose to be just white or just black? I think that it's not fair!
Smart girl
ezyccn30 There's more racism in the Dominican Republic than many Dominicans will admit. I've both read and heard about this from Dominicans themselves.
a Spanish person? lol huh. and usually a biracial person identifies with their side they're comfortable with. I'm Puerto Rican but I identify as black more. idk Spanish and have no care to learn it, neither do I hang out with Hispanics
Joe leblanc where did you see that I said Spanish is negro? lol I know that Hispanic is a mixture of European and African and native american. I said I identify with black only because my dad is black and my mom is Puerto Rican. And exactly I have black features which is why I identify as black but have Gonzalez as a last name
Coming from an African American, we are kind of nosey when it comes to race but that's only because we There's so many shades and colors and differences in our diverse. In the black race, we have so many different kinds of shades and maybe they even thought u were a part black. I wouldn't see it as a bad thing but as curiosity in how you label yourself. Personally I ask people their race because I know that not everybody is one race . Honestly, I don't think you should ever feel like u should feel like you have to label yourself im a specific race,Just be what you are comfortable with. If someone ever tels you need to title yourself to one race, that's beyond ignorant.
I don't deny there is racism in France, as there is anywhere else. But the interviewer is prejudiced, he assumes that there are few black people in France, and that they are segregated. That is far from the truth. France is very multicultural. Also the Yop La Boom caricature isn't of a black man...but of Maurice Chevalier, a famous white singer.
@@sketches8630 riiiight. 8 months ago and I STILL stand by my comment. Facts are facts. Dont like it? Tough shit. Must have offended ya huh?

What is wrong with him? He is in France, he should speak French. Show some respect toward different culture and the local, FFS! The world doesn't revolve around USA!
Totally agree! Do you come from France? :)
Francis Fang No I'm not. It's just bothering me that people refuse to conform to local norm, culture and value when they visit certain place. Even if you can't, at least try to say "bonjour" before you ask them. That way, you just show that you're trying and respect them.
011azr how do you feel about people refusing to learn English in America?
2011armyvet America is more like heterogeneous country. Less than 90% of people speak English in their houses. However, if you strike a random conversation with stranger, I think you really should use English to do that. I mean, look at him. He's in France. Even when French can speak English, he should show at least some respects.
011azr thank you for an intelligible answer and i agree while i was in Korea I learned from anyone willing to teach. When i arrived i could say thank you excuse me the basics when i left we had conversations
The French British Jamaican girl was really interesting.
And cute. Lol.
Yes, ...She look like Tyra Banks....hot
She's British but probably visiting Paris. It's only an hour by train.
Hélène Jackson What she said is that French do not face issues regarding racism in their country. She didn't specify anything about living in the past. What I seem to notice in Europe is that there is more of an historical consciousness over there than here--probably because they have more history. In America we tend to be historical amnesiacs, and in the words of Henry Ford to assume that "history is bunk."
She better than Tyra Bitchassbanks.
This guy is trolling for racism....he is looking under every rock....pathetic.
just FYI, the drawing on the wall is not racist AT ALL. "yop la boom" comes from a very old french song about a white french pimp in the 50s, that's why he's dressed like that (fancy hat and bow). Get some information before criticizing my culture. you are way more obsessed by race than we are, and it is pretty obvious in this video, you try to get people say what you think. bad bad bad journalism.
constanzelabest that’s how America fucked us up we think everything in the world based on racism smh
Um anyone notice the people on the streets looking amazing? They know how to dress...
LOL, it's France, not the US.
Alexander Then I know where it is, and im sure any fashion capitol (New York, Tokyo, Milan, Paris) have awesome street wear....But DAMN, they look good.
nltcraze
I know you know, what I meant is that in general french people take care of themselves and they way they dress, on the other hands americans in general are very informal and careless about their looks.
nltcraze I noticed that when I was there in Paris in January. It was like everyone was wearing their best outfit!
Ahahah! Alexander you say that french people take care of what they are wearing in general but it's not really true, i'm french and i live in campaign, it's really different than in Paris, in campaign the majority of people got good clothes but not like in paris, in paris people are juging others on what they wear, like if you don't get the last coat at 800$ you are not important ^^
French people=/=Paris people :p
she's 3 things: British, French, and Jamaican, love her
LevelZeroSage 1 And hot
No she isn’t. Shes not pure white. Fuck off!,
I AM WHITE. GONNA LOVE ME TOO?
Exactly own every part of your identity.
I think the biggest difference is That if You ask a black person living In America What they are they would respond "i'm African-American" but In Europe they wouldn't add african or whatever like they would Just say "i'm British, French, Russian" etc...and wer not so crazy about labelling someone like i don't care where You are from or What are your origins , as long as You respect me i respect You too
(And sorry for my english haha i'm not A native speaker, and i didn't say That to offend anyone)
Remember what America is famous for, for being a "melting pot" and immigration. Only the black people who were taken as slaves to U.S tend to call themselves that. Or some will say Black American, or if their family is from Africa, tend to say African American not all Black people in America are AA. If you're from somewhere else/your family is from somewhere else, you're more likely to just say "I'm Black" and if the person wants you to be more specific, then you say your origin. For me I'm Haitian-American it's a lot more complicated
+Minxoxo it's not that we're "crazy" about labeling people, it's just that many people that come here do want you to know their origin and there's nothing wrong with that at all. Of course we're all American and it's clear we're American, but remember the only people who don't get the "-American" are only White people. They're American by default. But many of European heritage also go by "-American" or say I'm So and so when people ask their origin. I wonder why this is looked down upon in Europe? We treat others the way they are (nice person? Okay. Mean? Stay away)
+Minxoxo on Europe when they ask this they would ask If we where born here or not and If not then they would ask us our origins but That don't happen a lot actually. They would mostly ask is when they are not sure of our origins like for me they ask me because they mistake me for an indian person but black personne too. So Thats why It is like That In Europe (maybe not everyone)
If you are Haitian, that is not your ancestors' original homeland, your ancestors were taken as slaves to Haiti.
+Minxoxo
I know this might just be me but I always introduce myself as just American.
There seems no point in saying the African part
This guy doesn't look black he looks morrocon or meghrebins countries
+unknown anonymous
he looks like obama. is obama from the maghreb?
he looks i am black african and in my country we have some people like this guys with no mixt
+fatsyii Mk true
could be
He clearly is mixed
You can't find any "french-african" in France as we don't say it. We just say "french". We don't call people "immigrants" too. Racist people makes this kind of distinctions here ; others don't and it's very bad considered to call someone a "french-african" or such things instead of a french here. Please consider us as all french, nothing else.
And please when you visit us, you could at least learn how to say "bonjour, excusez-moi, parlez-vous anglais ?" (hello, excuse me, do you speak english ?) before starting the conversation. It would take like 2 minuts to learn and would be more respectful.
By the way, the drawings on the store means :
Hollande : "together for a new world"
Obama : "Ok brother"
the Maya : "the change is now !"
It is both an obvious joke about the "end of the world" theories and a joke about our president campaign. His main sentence while the presidential campaign was "le changement c'est maintenant" (the change is now). It was his favorite sentence, like "yes we can" for your president. It is just a joke about politics and the antic mayan calendar theories. There is absolutely not racism at all in it, even for your very special victimhood and ethnocentric standards. You see a picture with a black on it, while a normal person wouldn't care about the color of the skin of the protagonists, you are searching for racism, trying to see if there is black people in the store, etc. What's wrong with you ? When I see a picture with a white, an asian or an arab I don't understand, I don't search for racism in it. At the moment, we can see you HOPE it is racist. That's the problem. Instead of traveling the world in order to find racism, you bring it with you and see it everywhere - and expect to see it. It's not a fair attitude for others you judge too quickly (and believe me, you can't deeply understand a country in a few days asking people on the capital). Your attitude toward this simple picture is very representative of your obsession (because this is what it seems to be : an obsession). You can do more than "being a black man". You can just be a man, travel and enjoy the meetings and the culture. Here, the color of your skin is as important and interesting as the color of your eyes, your hair and your shoes. It would be ridiculous to define yourself by the color of your hair or your shoes, right ? As a french, when I see a man, whatever is color is, obsessed by it and asking about it people on the street, the only thing I think is : how ridiculous. I feel very uncomfortable for you while watching this video.

Get the picture? And lynching was an everyday occurrence. It was pretty much like that till 1965.
Glad you said it!
In France we dont label people by their "race", your "race" does not apear on your ID, the concept of "race" is no longer used in french we say the "human race", and kids are taught that whereas in the U.S the concept of race is taught to kids, that there are differences between people and the society revolve around it, . In France there's no "african-french" like "afican-american" or "native-american" we are all and just "french". Of course there's racists everywhere but we are not teaching racism.
USA racial stuffs always give me cancer.
Being a black American man born and raised in America, I love the French mentality when it comes to race!
Well, aren t you virtuous. come over here I have a place i want to show you , stay a few days in compton, in new jersey.. if you make it alive whitey, consider yourself lucky
@@CrakenFlux I went to these places and peoples were usually pretty nice to me. Do you actually believe black peoples are plotting against you ? Holy shit.
France had a huge empire covering Africa, traditionally 'Africans' in France are considered Frenchmen and -women. I am a Dutchman of Indonesian descent and during my vacations in Indonesia I've always felt incredibly European. Americans are very ignorant of the world outside America, contradictory to what African-Americans believe they will be treated like Americans if they are in Africa.
I agree with you. American libtards love to bring their issues in other countries. I am a mixed race Filipino and here race is never an issue, until Americans started coming here accusing us of our "white" privilege.
Do you know that there’s over a million people in America who speak French or whose English is very influenced by French because the French damn near owned half of the south
Extremely IGNORANT statement..... We (African American (s)) know we I'll be treated as Americans....
Please stop ASSUMING U SOUND DUMB🤦🏿♀️
1. You're in France, speak French, or at least try to, and they will appreciate you for that.
2. Don't bring your US social issues into Europe. You're giving African Americans a bad name and making people think they are the dumber than US television already makes them out to be.
Hahahaha... ok so first this guy is totally disrespectful.
Then, I am half French half American, okay? I live in France and comes to the US each year to see my family other there. In the short amount of time I spent there each year, I've seen more acts of racisme than I ever did in France. In fact I've never seen anyone being racist towars someone black here. I have friends who are black and they never experienced any racism.

You are so biased! Anything is racist to you. You asked people that weren't even black! They were mixed, and they're not african because they were born and raised in france, they are french
USA is third world
I recently came back from France (lived there almost 5 months) and I must say that I do not think racism is as prevalent over there. I mean people aren't usually bothered by each other, they respect one another as opposed to here in the US we LOVE stereotypes and when we meet someone of another race we just HAVE to bring them up like "Oh you're Latina, do you love burritos?" (I'm Latina so I know). Asking that sort of question in France is super unheard of and thought of as totally rude.
But, Latina is a ethnicity
Lmfaoooo you’re right I’m Mexican and that’s def true,
Shows up, dosent speak a word of french and starts projecting his problems onto another culture
Way to keep it classy bruh
Theres racism in Paris, i experienced that shit on the train to Disneyland with my kids...the funny thing abt it was the woman was openly racist toward me in a train filled with ppl and she expected me to not retaliate, cos she was very shocked when i shouted back at her..telling her to shut up...which she did but she had that "how dare she tell me to shut up "look on her face...then my friend told me most Africans living in paris dont really fight back when they experience racism..they just take it.....
Wallnaut Mr the french people are racist , they don't show this but in their mind always they want to show they are superior to other because of colonisation , but if you don't know there is racism against muslims people(religion) and also black people
French are just awful for any reason. Race is just a pretext to shout at you. They could find a million other reasons. People who know french just laugh when they get there.
sn00piedog She's a liar. Period. Many tourists think that the French are "racist" because they don't speak English. They just don't understand that some people can live without having to learn English. So maybe that ignorant and racist lady who seems really rude thought that she deserved a special treatment. And what I find hilarious is that the RER that goes to Disneyland is usually taken by tourists and people of African/North African descent. There are very very few "ethnic French" there...
Wallnaut stop calling me a liar and get a life.. im talking from personal experience.. i said "theres racism in Paris" because of my experience while i was there... i didnt say all french people are racists!!!
Omo, sounds like you had a rough time in France. From a neutral point of you view, Omo, you can't categorize the millions of people in France from one persons actions. I don't think that's fair.
However, I can see why you may think this about French people because of one persons actions.
It never surprises me how American entitlement, in every single video featuring Americans in France, shows how Americans either purposefully choose not to speak French and do interviews in French or just don't speak the language and just expects everyone to conform to speaking English during interviews in a Francophone country. Doesn't make any sense.
Yes!! Exactly he’s too embarrassing to watch
5m15. "It's way better to be Black" says the Arlequin-outfitted journalist. This guy absolutely wants France to be racist. He pushes so much for it.
😆😆😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😆
France is already racist
the graffiti on the wall is of iconic french singer, charles trenet lol come on dude
@dwone jones Racist
@Bob Barnes
Don't even give this dunce-icle the time of day bruh😂
Whooooo
Trying to observe French identities and cultures with an American mindset, now that is cringy.
I like your page, but you shouldn't be so sensitive. I lived in Kenya, for sometime was the only white where I lived. I talked about spavery and other touchy issues with my friends. They told me this, it was a long time ago we can all get along together now. They were very kind respectful. Most thought all whites looked the same, many thought I looked like Antonio Banderas, which I don't, many came to touch my hair, my skin. They would watch me eat and laugh. No I never thought they were racist for ma y wanting to touch my hair and rub my skin. I was just different. They called my mzungu, or white man, European man. I never took it in a wrong way. If I tried to see everything as racism I would have hated Africa and would have concluded that they were racists. At the end my friends would tell me you are a black man with white skin. I hope this helps you, from someone that loves and respects Africans and misses Africa from the bottom of his heart.
that was verry beautiful to read

I lived in France for a year and had French colleagues and made the best friends of my life there. They were all French. Even started a few romances. The only racist comments I heard came from the other British expats. They all thought I came from Martinique
at least they know about Martinique…
Face it guys, europe is better. Its kinda obvious. Also, our roads are mostly intact, contrary to 'murica.
FUCK OFF FROM EUROPE
It’s funny how they compare paris with the United States. There are many states in America. It makes more sense if they compare New York vs paris or United States vs France. Cities are actually more open to other culture compared to smaller towns.
Mix people aren’t black their mix!!!
Entirely different ethnicity.
everyone is technically mixed.
"What about a racist white man born in Johannesburg who migrates and becomes a US citizen, wouldn't he techincally be an African American??!!" - George Carlin
What an airhead!!, This guy enforces every American stereotype imaginable, plus I just love how everyone else is so calmer and cooler than he is.
Yess👍He’s too embarrassing to watch b/c he thinks that ALLL PEOPLE Feel the same as he does? almost as if these random French people can relate to “his personal racism crisis unique to him personally and implying at same time? All AfrAmer experience racism the same way?? And that’s Waay too much like a Crackhead talking?? ..Whom in in their sane mind? approaches passersby’s for empathy?? The commentator is literally having a crisis before our eyes and then begs viewing audiences to have empathy..b/c HE hasn’t addressed his own personal issues?..and it’s too hard to watch..like he’s having a breakdown in a foreign country
American guy be like : "Being black is our culture !"
Black people in the street be like : "Dude, what are you talking about ? We have nothing in common."
Yeah, judge people on their character not on the colour of their skin.
Also I think being proud of your race is as bad as being racist or close enough. Nobody earns their race. They're just born with it.
God. What an awful video. I was hoping that it might be a joke. The ignorance of the host is embarrassing. I just can't…
The fact that nobody regardless of their race gave a damn about that drawing at the beginning of the video should have told him something about the French people.
Wasn't that window picture in the beginning just poking fun at the scare over the Mayan calendar ending in 2012??
yes, it was and with the president of france and USA in the picture. Maybe you are the only one that coment the question ot the host.
Ok I think this video is unnecessary and not show us anything concrete. I'm french and as everyone (I think) I have stereotypes about different country. Sure in France there is racism but as everywhere and in particular because of the crisis. There are poeple who are racist here I will not deny.
I think the problem comes from both sides. I'm Tunisian and French and each year I come back to Tunisia (like a lot of Maghrebian) I really like my country but I can't live their because to find a job, gain money it's very difficult. There are black/arabs French who were born in France and have parents born in Africa, and say bad things about France, but they don't realize how lucky they are to live in a country like ours and I want to see them live there so they can see how life is more difficult than in France. But it's no their fault, they face an identity crisis.
I'm verry Happy to live in France because there is real multiculturalism, There are dumb people who want to break it, says that it's a faibless but we have to go over and try to do our best for the coming years.
Sorry for my English I'm still learning.
I like how the interviewer is trying to bait these people to implicate French people as racists, but all of the black people just wave him off as an idiot and tell him they feel immersed in French culture.
Haha.
It seems like he keeps putting his own opinion out there instead of really listening to what the people are saying.
Some race stats for y'all
US:
Black population: 42 million
Abolition of Slavery: 1861
First elected black representative: 1870
France:
Black population: 5 million
Abolition of Slavery: 1848
First elected black representative: 1793
Robespierre & co abolished slavery in 1794 but Napoleon reinstated it in 1802.
@@marcelintworski4338 but they didnt apply because they have lost the antilles to great britain.
I think people are judged for their background culture more than for the skin color in Europe ..
Odds are it has already been adressed but the "Yop La Boum" drawing depicts french singer Maurice Chevalier. I just wanted to clarify that.
In European colonial powers like the UK, France, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands and even Russia, most immigrants come from our former colonies. In the US something similar is the immigration from Puerto Rico and the Phillipines.
when I was in France, everyone was really cool
Good for you but you didn't meet everyone.
c'est un constat j'habite a paris et tout le monde est super cool et pas racisme
Paris c'est pas la France. De plus, quand bien même c'est pas la France il y a quant meme du racisme. Je ne c'est pas où t'habite mais soit tu n'a aucune connection avec le monde extérieur soit t'est blanc.
***** Soit t'est une idiot soit tu le fait exprès parce que j'ai pas dit qu'a Paris on vote FN. Etre raciste ça ne veut pas forcément dire voter FN. Attention pas d'amalgame !
De toute façon pour moi FN, UMP, PS C'est la même chose, il n'y en a pas un pour rattraper l'autre.
The french are fucked up. Macron is destroying France and is trying to destroy Europe.
I believe it depends on the region in France, I live around Paris and I've always been in school with people coming from a lot of different cultures, and nobody cared about your skin-color, nobody even thought about it. The political events lately have really changed minds of people about religion though but still, it's not a thing on everyday's life.
Though, when i go on holidays in other regions that are more "traditional", some people are not used to being in a very diverse social environment and I believe this is the main source of racism in french, along with all of the Muslims stereotypes. But in person, in the everyday life, there is no like "black people" and "white people", no one cares.
"French African" ? Really ? Never heard about that in France. 10 years ago we were saying that more than one third of the french people had foreign origins, we're not gonna start adding a title for every origins we have to our identity. The only consequence would be to split the population, witch is quite the opposite of what were trying to do, to unify people and make the "french identity" evolve. France is not America.
Also you don't want us to use words like "niggaz" or else? Ok then stop feeding the world with your crap.
now there are french africans as there are white americans
***** more like european americans
Stanley Chaney or american europeans
now we all can agree that "French African" makes no sense!
I love France. I found as long as I tried to speak a bit of French and had a positive attitude they were very open. But that is anywhere, you have to travel with the right attitude and respect for the place you are visiting. I have also traveled all around Europe and outside of Germany, I have experienced more racism in the US than anywhere else. I did notice how differently I was treated as an American than my African counterparts in Italy...that was a bit offsetting. I was in Italy for a few years and felt at home. The people were very nice and welcoming to me. But again, I tried to speak as much of the Language as I possibly could at least greetings. Europeans are very funny about you at least trying to say Hello, Thank you, Please...I am going back to Germany though to see if my experience is any different that it was a few years ago.
Yes, I think he probably thought the blacks were holding back. Which they may have been, but it was more so out of the fact they probably have seen or felt some racism, but not to the point they felt that they had to be angry or start telling their stories. They were more conservative about over voicing any concerns. The US, it's so divided that we feel it more and it's more in your face. People are angry and to a point deserve to be. People in Europe can discuss these issues without feeling as though they are attacking anyone. I have European friends and American friends. There is racism everywhere. Some advertisements like what we saw in the video are shocking and I will never understand them. But, France has always been an open and accepting country. My friends who ask how I could have lived in Italy, they are racists. I remind them that in the beginning of the Katrina hurricane in New Orleans, Italy was one of the if not the first country to send help. USA was not even close to sending help by the time Italy help arrived. During the 20's and 30's when all hell was breaking out racially in the US, Paris was a safe haven for blacks. Most black entertainers retire to France and have renewed careers. Are there racists in Europe? YES, but the US is just as bad if not worse.
Thanks Alex.
Are there a lot of black People in Germany? Did you feel welcome there? I am asking this question because I have to choose a European language, and go to France or Germany next year for work. I was interested if you felt ok in Germany?
@@LilT9180 I recommend you to try French because there are more country that have French as their official language than German . But German is way easier than French if your first language is english so...
@@LilT9180I’d say the treatment towards black people is pretty similar in France and in Germany. And there are a lot of people from northern and subsaharian African descent in both countries. Pick the language you like the most. French is spoken in more countries, and it’s a good language to know if you’re travelling in Africa for example, alongside english, but if you want to go study or work in Europe, German fluency is a very good thing to have on your resume. From what I’ve seen, German is easier to learn though, especially if your native language is English.
France IS racist. Maybe not as much towards blacks but definitely towards North Africans. Just because the racism is directed at a group other than blacks doesn't mean that it doesn't happen.
Well, I'm not condoning racism in France, but most of the racism comes from the idea of N. Africans, and West/Central Asians (Middle east, India, etc.) tend to have a higher crime rate, but this is all from ears. Not to mention, French culture is not so much French anymore...
But then again, the French DID colonize parts of N. Africa... So, that's probably why they move there
Soup Pastes Algeria used ot be a department of France. It got seperated at the price of a painful war. Even today, there are still tensions between the two countries.
But again, Paris does not represent France. This a big mistake people often make.
If you say that you are probably Arab or non black because I was born in France has a black person and their is a lot of racism towards black people. By the way I find that North Africans (the majority NOT ALL of them. My best friend is Arab and not racist at all) are very racist even more sometimes towards black people. What I mean is that they show it more they are not afraid to say racist words in front of your face. Yes they are very friendly but they are very disrespectful to black people .Their hatred towards black people is so intense it seems like black people did them something it's crazy. If their is a black old lady next to a white old lady in a train the Arab guy would give his space to the white women. Indian are similar to Arab and Chinese are more like white racist (extremely racist but more discreet). Nevertheless, their is racism in every country. People hate Arab, blacks, white, Chinese all around the world but some get better treated. For some reason it is the one whose ancestries have stolen, killed, robbed the most.
Tiffany Me I'm not Arab or North African at all I'm East African (black), but I'm also Muslim so I get lumped in with the Arab category. And yes I know that a lot of Arab countries and people are racist towards blacks, a lot of people from my country go to Arab countries to study, work and live in and they do face discrimination. However my point is, in France and Europe in general, racism tends to be more targeted on Muslims and people who "look Arab" rather than blacks, but that doesn't mean the country is not racist itself, it's just racist towards a different group.
Jee Blow Why do you think my family left in the first place, to get a better life. You aren't gonna live too well in a third world country.
There's a lot of racism in France of course, but it's not like in the US, cause black people don't isolate themselves from the white.
Besides, like the African guy said at the beginning , he feels more French than African because when he goes to Africa, he is not consider as a REAL African , cause the way he acts and speaks is different. The big issue in France is the way they deal with the racism, we don't talk about it. People ignore it and pretend it does not exist (like some white French said in the video)
But the fact is that France has a difficult story with Africa because they colonized most of the countries in Africa. If you go to Africa , most of the people speak French and there's also a lot of French there, that's why France cannot say anything about the black population in France.
besides, I iust wanna remind you that there is some French territories in the Caribbean and those people are French even though they are black.
He asked him about being of African DESCENT, to which he replied he doesn’t feel African. He completely either evaded, or misunderstood the question. There’s a difference between race and nationality, he deflected by highlighting cultural aspects of his experience.

African American is a term that is so often misused. It's a cultural moniker which has little connection to the people it so often describes. White Americans can accurately be called European-Americans because they are cultural descendants of European culture. Even then it's not common. As for the majority of Black people particularly the decedents of Slave their African culture was utterly destroyed and they are far more European than they are African. I would also agree with the Nigerian woman when she said "does it make it any better when a Black person says it?" I quite honestly hear that word so often but never from a White person I would like to see the word die out completely so that people can act identically without having to walk on egg shells to avoid a touchy subject.
I guess I am a French American! No!! I am from the USA.
this dude wouldnt even pass as black in most western european countries.
Yep as the one drop rule isn't a rule (I'm greatful). However, Americanisation is influencing things...
well my nigerian gf says hes a white man for black africans he looks morrocan and many black african dont like morrocans dont ask me why
Nick Award here in the uk he could pass for black. Well at least in the less diverse parts anyway.
Ojberretta Berretta as a mixed person with a browner skin tone I have noticed this. Nigerians have a stronger standard on what is black. They don't really see me as black but african americans would.
He would pass as black in practically every Western European country, definitely in the UK.
I think racism is every where in the world even in Africa, thats how humans are like....Human kinds are racist beings...
IN aFRICA THEY DON'T KNOW RACISM. I WAS BORN THERE LIKE A MIXED AND I KNOW RACISM IS JUST IN THE REST OF THE WORLD MAYBE NORTH AFRICA BUT BLACKS AFRICA ARE GOOD AND NICEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD
now i think u are right
Anthony Moore There is war cause the US and UK cause it to depopulate and lute resources. It is easier to steal when a country has no order. There is no racism only tribalism
Human kind is not racist. Racism is based on culture.Racism started with Europeans discovering that their are other humans on this planet. They were extremely angry at what they saw. People who don't look like them knew more than them and had more than them. At first they were curious they saw people running around assuming they were animals. It made them happy but when they discover what these people had (piles of gold, diamonds, intelligence creativity, very friendly and generous to a point that they would give some of their riches). they started being jealous. To empower themselves they created society based on racism and started spreading it all around the world. Why do you think racism is often cases where a black person is belittled by a white person. You just have to look at what you see on TV movies publicity it is not that hard to realise.
Anthony Moore The Bible doesn't prove the existence of racism in antiquity. But it has been used to justify racism in modern times.
The French sentence you saw on the window means Together for a new world. Your welcome
It's obviously an Mayan dude, not a black guy. It has a date 12/21/2012 on it. I don't even speak French and it's obvious.
Wow - loud, obnoxious, rude, egocentric, offensive and racist. Bingo. We have the American abroad full set right here. I cringed hard at 0:47. Yelling and calling at strangers - big no no.
This guy's righteous indignation is so readily apparent.
I've never been to France but I do plan to visit. I feel like black people and Africans are shown racism because of the world's view of Africa. Especially America and some European countries. Africa, which is a CONTINENT NOT A COUNTRY, is always seen as the poorest "country" in the world. Yes, they some very poor places in Africa, just like there are very poor places in every country/continent in the world. They are also middle class and rich places in Africa. Aside from that, In the olden daysAmerica and many European countries enslaved African countries and basically destroyed those countries foundation. Thats why Africa is seen as "behind" in their development as a continent. Fast forward to present day, those Europeans and Americans look down on Africans and their descendents resulting in racism. I hate racism no matter if its directed to Africans, Asians, Caucasians, or whatever. It's wrong. Keep in mind though that I'm not saying EVERY American or European is racist or that America and Europe are terrible places.That would be rude and incorrect. I'm just saying that that's most likely one of the reason why there is racism in those countries. Sorry for such a long comment. :)
French are racist against Moroccans Algerians Tunisians and black Africans . I'm Moroccan and my family live in Paris d it's kinda hard
Arabs are also racist against black people. For some reason they respect more white people. Its has if the black people did something to Arabs. ( I am not talking for everyone)
I heard that complaint fairly often from North Africans and North African-descended people in France.
Tiffany Me ur right .
but i'm not one of them
***** I dunno......I've heard several insults in the suburbs towards White people coming from exactly the same people u consider are being mistreated.

Le multiculturalisme est un délire de néo chrétiens castrés.
LOL !! The" Yop la boum" graffiti represents Maurice Chevalier , a french ( and white) singer ."Prosper youp la boum " is the title of one of his songs .
Anyway, in Europe people are less obsessed with race than in USA.
Yawn: France is a beautiful country with a long history and it has produced art and science that has been emulated all over the world. It gave the western world the concept of enlightenment and formed many of our concepts of human rights amongst other things.
Yes it also had a history of colonisation and imperialism. What country didn't? Doesn't this guy realise that most of the African Kingdoms also built empires which were built on enslaving their own people; until they were finally brought down by European countries including France.
These young French people thrashing their own country in order to try to signal that they are so right-on and politically correct, need to realise how lucky they are to have been brought up in France.
They also need to understand that the mass Muslim immigration that is happening now in a fresh wave, will destroy everything that France and other European countries have protected and developed for centuries.
You say that African or Arab is better? Really? Why are Africans and Arabs making so much effort to get into Europe? Why are Africans stuffing themselves into leaky boats and risking their lives to cross the sea just for a chance to live in France? Does anyone see Europeans going in the other direction?
They do it because Europe is a better place to live. Sorry to burst you virtue signalling bubbles, but the lands of bad old Mr Whitey have built the most open, most free, most tolerant and most advanced societies in the history of human civilisation. Africa? Not so much. You want racism and religious bigotry and ethnic hatred on an epic scale; try the Arab world or try large parts of Africa. There is I am sure bigotry in France too; but not so much.
Who does this clown think he is kidding.
problems France caused in their country make them go to France
Ryan Herich Really? What problems did France cause in Afghanistan or Pakistan or Iraq, or Sudan or Nigeria? Even in North Africa their influence was mixed. They turned Algeria into the most modern country in Africa for a period and when they left many Algerians fought for them to stay.
kingofpendragon
Sorry to burst your bubble, but I'm not French. If you knew a little about world cultures then my name might have been a clue.
But those people fleeing Africa in those leaky boats are doing so because other Africans are running around with machetes and guns killing people for being of other ethnic groups or other religions. They are not running away from the French. They are running to France for protection and security; because it is the French and other Europeans who are willing to help them, not other African countries.
There are many Africans who want to go to France or other European countries because they want their kids to grow up in civilised countries where they do not have to be afraid all the time. They want their kids to have a stable home and a good education. They know they can find that in France.
That is why Africans migrate to France and French people do not migrate to Africa. And if the cult of Islamic savages you seem to admire were to prevail over Europe, then Africans would no longer have any safe harbour to seek refuge. But it won't. Because it is already reaching a tipping point white European countries beginning to close their borders. And when they do that, your cult of semi-literate stone-age, inbreds will be powerless. If ISIS does manage to begin the all out holy war it says it wants with Europe. Then that war will end with the Middle East in flames, Muslims being deported en-masse from Europe and Africa once again isolated.
ISIS are not a military force in any way comparable to France or Britain or Germany. They are good at terrorising and murdering innocent people. But they already fell apart within days when confronted with Russian forces. Putin has already proved what a paper tiger ISIS is. He just doesn't care that much because Islamic murder squads are not active in Russia right now. Hollande or Merkel or May could likewise wipe out ISIS with one signature. None of them will do it because they don't have the political will; but Merkel will be gone next year and Hollande the following one. And the mood in France and Germany is hardening rapidly.
kingofpendragon
This is what Mali King Gezo of Dahomey said to French emissaries pushing for the abolition of slavery.
_"Slavery is the wealth and power of our Kingdom. We will never abandon it."_
The French colonised nearly all of his empire anyway. They brought the rule of law, modern technologies of all kinds, and principles of French enlightenment and they banned slavery outright. A little further North, the British were doing the same. That is why so many smaller tribes along the so called slave coasts of west Africa supported the Europeans when they arrived.
And yes the Moors made great advances in some areas, particularly mathematics. So too did the Egyptians. They were great empires in their own times.
The Moors conquered much of Southern Europe at one point, stealing that which did not belong to them. The Zulus of Southern Africa also built an empire on the bones of their own people and slaughtered and enslaved all around them.
But you see conquest by definition the business of empire. It has nothing to do with race.
In the end the Europeans were just better at it.
Maybe you should actually read some history.
Do you even know when the mass conquest of Africa began? Here is a clue. Long after Europeans has already abolished slavery. Do you know which people were the first to abolish slavery? Another clue. It wasn't Africans. Do you know which people were the last to abolish slavery? ...... Africans; and they only did it because the Europeans forced them to.
But lets get back you your planet: Yes the French Impressionist masterpieces were all stolen from Africans. The Moors invented the auto-mobile. Michelangelo was from Mali, who'd have thought!!! and the Xhosa put the first man in space.
Did you know that the use of entire sentences in all-caps is a sign of mental instability?
Lana Voreskova So you're the CAPSLOCK POLICE WOMAN, in addition to being a complete low life LOSER? Sigmund FRAUD LIVE IN THE FLESH, HUH? HAHAHA!!!
Again, answer THE SIMPLE QUESTION HERE. Who invited WHITE PEOPLE TO AFRICA IN THE 1ST PLACE, YOU CLUELESS BITCH? STOP DEFLECTING & JUST ANSWER THE DAMN QUESTION. Either you can refute this all-important history question OR YOU CAN'T.
And for the record, I'VE GOT MORE HISTORICAL KNOWLEDGE IN MY LITTLE PINKIE THAN YOUR WHOLE FAMILY TREE PUT TOGETHER. And NO, white people did NOT ABOLISH SLAVERY. THEY JUST SUBSTITUTED SLAVERY WITH COLONISATION, WHICH PROVED TO BE JUST AS BAD, SINCE YOU WHITES STILL DID NOT LIFT A FINGER TO DO ANY OF THE BUILDING OF THE COLONIES YOURSELF.
Stupid, PRETENTIOUS, LOW LIFE BITCH.
About graffiti : it's about Charles Trenet who's lookin a bit like that. About racism in France. Well, I felt more racism in NY because my wife is asian (japanese). Black women let me felt like I m traitor. And let me tell a last thing. Before traveling around the world, I thought France is a racist country. But, it's less than all other's countries. This is the country were you can find the most elevate rate of mixed nationality weddings. Of course there's some racisme against black. But some black are racist to. Not only against whites.
I don't think these interviews were carried out properly the questions were not consistent or objective. He spoke from point of view as an american without understanding French society. It seems to me that the French place a lot on who you are culturally. When the first black man said he was born in France so he identifies as french is an example of this , he is culturally French and French by nationality . Now when he interviews the white French man he asks how do they treat African immigrants he answered the french are racists, now immigrants would be different culturally and would come up against prejudice (btw this happens in multiple countries regardless of race, heck people can be of the same race and treat immigrants to their country with discrimination). This question of how immigrants are treated is totally different to asking how it is to be black in France.
this is ridiculous, you see racism everywhere and you even invent it when there is not. For your information, the "yop la boum" drawing picture Charles Trenet which is a well known singer from 20th century, a poet, not an once of racism inside. My poor lad, you should study better before to broadcast such insanities.
davidgrout2009 Maurice Chevalier, not Charles Trénet
So this young lady does not see herself black but she has a Jamaican background she identifies herself as white but can visibly see that Paris does have a racist background towards those who are of African descent. Most of the people interviewed that were "African" seem to be naive of the fact that racism follows us everywhere, it does not matter that Paris may seem a accepting... the cartoons displayed evidently gave me a different view
when you live in a "white neighbourhood", when all your friends are white, when all the people on tv are white, when the only black people that u see are the racist characters in stupid movie, u prefer see yourself as white
I can understand this but she did not declare what neighborhood per say she was from except the fact that she was raised by an all white family. I find that this post is disturbing as you are stereotyping african americans in the portrait of movies and not seen as a whole. France is pretty big but damn as sure has a nice population of blacks where she can distinguish reality and what is in the movies.
French people do not classify people by race as they do in the USA. America is divided due to the government creating so many different racial classes. There more racial classes in USA than in the old South Africa.
And by the way, the first picture is a stupid joke about the 12/21/2012 u_u it's not racist AT ALL.
Title of the video : an American tripin in paris
I’m black born and raised in Sweden and I can confirm that Americans are way more obsessed with race than any other country. Please don’t bring this kind attitude to other countries and keep it in the states.🙄
Stop with that lie. The swedes are very obsessed about race and limiting the migration from people from African and Middle Eastern countries. All white countries are obsessed with race and culture.
@@beforeyourimmigrants8471 Are you from Sweden? And African where? The only biggest complaint is the mass intake of refugees which I agree with because they are highly prioritized when it comes to welfare and housing whiles it can take up to 5-10 years for us to get a first-hand contract for an apartment and welfare to be taken away from some people who really have it tuff. So yeah, I agree with them completely. Some won't even bother to learn Swedish, get a job or learn how the system works.
Americans ARE way obsessed with race than Swedish people. Have you seen a Swed travelling to a foreign country asking racial questions to citizens? I, my family and other people I know have been putting it with dumb ass stereotypical and racial questions whether it's from white Americans or black Americans.
Notice that many of the French speak good English but this idiot il ne parlez pas francais... No wonder the world has a low opinion of Americans...
I have been living in France for about 10 months now. I would agree that there is way more racism in America than in France, however, I will say that people quickly pick up on my accent, which would probably buff off the racism because French people (for the most part) are obsessed with America, our people and our culture.
@Frederick Dorsey probably pretty good aslong as they arnt crying victim and using the race card all the fuckin time. 👍👍
Yeah your ignorant and your profile picture doesn't help it you look gay af.
“I was born here so I’m not feeling like I’m really African” YES! Exactly they’re not African at all!!! They’re FRENCH!!!! Their culture is purely French. France is the GOAT.
Exactly . My mother is African but I was born in France and grew up here , my mannerism , fashion style and speaking pattern are all off when I go to my mother's country of origin . There they say that Im a "vasa" ( a French ) because they do feel that Im not one of them .
Im gonna say it now as well , I never suffered from racism here even tho I grew up in the "banlieue" were there is presumably a lot of racism , well I never saw it or was affected by it .
He is derogatory to himself.

The only thing that is wrong with this video is the fact that he asks Parisian people about NATIONAL issues. And let's be honest, people from Paris know nothing about the national culture, they only know about Parisian culture. I am French, and black, I've grown in Paris and then moved to Alsace, and let me tell you this: racism IS ALIVE in France.
People asked me if I had the nationality, if I could do africain dances (although I'm Caribbean), called me a negro, bullied me for 5 years... It is not easy to live in the countryside as a black person.
damn
Yeah... damn. France is not the "beautiful and magical" country everyone's talking about. Big cities like Bordeaux, Toulouse or Strasbourg are pretty cool though.
Let's not be too negative.
I'm going to Lyon...you think I'll have any issues?
1920s.........France was very pissed off...when MISS. BAKER COULD NOT GET A ROOM IN NEW YORK
I had to stop watching at "you talk white" and "you've got that good hair" SMH
We are all from Africa.
what political statement are you making with your clothes brother?
4:45 -> "Have you experienced racism here?"
5:14 -> "It's way better to be black. That's way cooler, I would have to agree."
WAIT WHAT?
Lol! It's kind of ironic how dude at 4:52 talks about racism while wearing that hat.
