Fuck You & Thank You: Italy/Liu Xiaobo

In this segment of my Fuck You & Thank You Series, I talk about the horrible working and living conditions of African immigrants in Italy and highlight the political/human rights activism of Liu Xiaobo in China.

Here is the link to the famous "tank man" during the Tiananmen Square Protests: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV-tk8CrqCQ.

Another person from my people to people group asked for anything they were greeted with less malice behavior.In a group of 39 students, there were only 3 African Americans I was one of them and we experienced a lot more ill behavior from a majority of the hotel staff and some of the local populace.

Another excellent vid. Thank you for taking my concerns to heart. I assure you I was only trying to make sure you put your vids in the proper contexts, and I commend you for your efforts in raising people's awareness of human rights issues. I appreciate that you specified your focus on both severity and scale of human rights offenses that you were targetting, as well as being able to make the leap to realize some of the similarities between how both U.S. and Italy handle illegal immigration.

@VongolaXEspada You do realise africans sold themselves right? The africans were already selling themselfs to middle easterners for money, then when the europiens came they did it for guns to assist in the war. Black people can blame no one else because self-slavery is an art they practiced for over a millenia.

On my trip to Italy this summer,I noticed a lot of Africans selling bootlegged merchandise (watches,sunshades etc...) and I noticed that they would be away from market area where tourist mostly are; and would be on street corners at least 2 blocks away from the market place.

Also the hotels I stayed at during my stay in Europe,whenever I asked a question about something, they would either answer me with weariness or iration in their voice,and would end the conversation quickly but when cont....

---You guys dragged us here from Africa and used us as your slaves and gave us horrible shelter and made our children die from barely feeding them and making them work hours on end, Africa could have had a great economy if the black people stayed their, we could have build businesses made stores and we wouldn't have to deal with all this racist bullshit in the earlier 1900s, I really HATE some of the things america has done in the past
