I am pretty sure Mexicans murder blacks who cross into the wrong communities.

No, racism only exists within a white context.

They have issues outside of Europe, like ethnicity and castes, but no racism.

This comment is in fact Racist because you imply that there wasn't racism simply because Cleopatra was according to your logic considered accepted and apparently you also think that racism only applies to Africans or people of African descent. What exactly are you actually trying to say?

[KillYourFuture]

How are they carrying on like homosexuals? That statement doesn't mean ANYTHING. Also legalized segregation ended less then a 100 years ago not to mention that there is a system in place now which is designed to keep black people in this country uneducated and or in prison. There are more opportunities and access to acceptance for an immigrant family from Mexico or even Iraq then there are for Blacks in this country.

[KillYourFuture]

Do you also recall the policies of Australia and New Zealand towards the Aborigines and the Maori?

[KillYourFuture]

That isn't even a coherent thought

its on netflix

Those are included in “European.”

Racism has nothing to do with homogeneity. There was no racism when Europe was at its most heterogeneous, antiquity. Cleopatra was from northern Africa. She was considered a great beauty. European paintings depicting Cleopatra from around the Renaissance until the 19th century show her as blond, fair-skinned woman. Cleopatra became a honorary white woman. The honorary white African and Asian male is a common Hollywood trope.

Look you need to let go of the past and move on.. or you will be left behind in history and the only one who cares about your ordeal will be the god damn United States (who are honestly the best friends black people have ever had) because they are the only ones who care what black people were forced to endure.. and they carry on about it like a nation of homosexuals for almost 200 years.. and I can tell you now that nobody else does.
