WRT Blacks in Europe, it is important to distinguish the continent from Britain. In Britain, it seems that the Blacks are more assimilated than the Asians there and more assimilated than Blacks here. In Britain, the Asians seem less assimilated than the Blacks there, and less assimilated than Asians here.
On the continent, racism is still a huge issue for all non whites (Jews included), especially in the East. It is tricky since class counts too, whereas that is not important here. Wealthy blacks can have nice lives there. That said, the continent has its work cut out.

Part of our family lives in Europe and were once Jewish, after the war, the ones who stayed decided "if you can't beat um, join um", and they are now Christians, and have not looked back.

Yup. Highly visible when it comes to exclusion but invisible when it comes to inclusion. The noticeable no ones here.

I don't see why. I'd say equally bad crimes are, well, equally bad no matter who commits them.

But I've also taken issue with Euro-Racist's definition of "foreigners".

It is easy to throw stones when you live in homogeneous populations.


I find this statement hard to reconcile with the many biographies of WW-II era Black soldiers who stated, in so many words, that the first experience of acceptance and dignity they had was when stationed in Europe. I just can't put European style-racism, or xenophobia, up against the race hatred of early 20th-century America and accept that Europeans are much more racist that Americans. Can't accept that.


It's been about 75 years since WWII began. Much has happened .... the guest workers of the 1950s in Germany, Netherlands, other countries overstayed their welcome. They were supposed to be there temporarily but then brought over their families. Some have assimilated and others have not, which I find astounding after 50+ years.

There are ever increasing numbers of legitimate/illegimate refugees entering Europe who depend on welfare to live, with burgeoning families of 8+kids per family. Many are Muslim with their sexist attitudes that men are supreme, so they really cannot improve their lot in life when half their community is so restricted and oppressed.

Understandably, the native people start to resent this. At the lowest level, the immigrants/refugees are illiterate villagers who have little hope for advancement in any sphere. Of course, there are the better educated professionals who flee countries like Iran, but I don't think they are the majority.


Yes, how dare those "guest workers" not understand the fact that they were only there to do low-grade manual labor, leave, and have no civil rights at all. How dare they want to have their wives and children join them? Really outrageous of them. And all those Germans and Dutch eating Turkish pizza are right to feel dismayed at the fact that the guest workers "failed to assimilate," when they offered them citizenship, right? Oh wait, my bad -- they were never offered citizenship, despite the fact that generations of "guest workers" have been born in Europe and never even seen their native countries and speak fluent German and Dutch.

Exactly. The native populations have had little interest in assimilating these workers. This will hurt those countries in the long run.
