aim5: I agree that most white people have very negative views in regards to blacks (that they created themselves). I don't have exact statistical evidence but I once read somewhere that 75% of whites have negative views in regards to blacks (this is the case in many Western nations). So it means 1 out of every 4 do not. LOL quite low percentage numbers if you ask me. But it seems that way. There are some genuinely good white people out there, but a lot of them seem to pretend to like you only to backstab you with lies a lot. Most of white people's hatred comes from what they hear in the household. It's very sad what happened with Tonia Okojie. 5 Likes |

EnlightenedSoul:Another excuse. Even if he/she is a Muslim the airport official are very unprofessional by forcing the baggage on him/her not only that but claiming to have a video oh the person in question dropping it. Jeez! Easter Europeans aren't that civilized as the Westerners though. I am not surprised to see something like this emanating from that region. 1 Like |

all4naija: Lol, unprofessional, you say? It's nowhere near an unbelievable account with respect to airport treatment of travelling Muslims (or anyone that appears to be one, i.e, Hindus and Sikhs, etc). Now if it were otherwise, I'd be genuinely surprised. |
Re: A Discriminating Experience In Poland by Nobody: 5:19am On Sep 22, 2015 |

I wouldn't call that racism though. True you were singled out out cos you were probably the most likely to be the one that dropped the bag. This is normal. This is referred to as PROFILING. There are different types of profiling is different situations and you surely fit in this case cos of your colour. There is Racial profiling, Social profiling, Religious profiling, Ethnic profiling etc. Sorry about the inconvenience bro. They should have tendered an apology. Racism is real though. |

princetunex: The crimes committed by our black brothers and sisters around the world is not an excuse for the repulsive attitude from white idiots towards black people. If we are to judge white people today on the basis of their forefathers crimes, the crime of white people around the world is enough for every white person to be lynched around the world. White people are freaking racists. It's only few among them that are not and even the fews still have a soft spot for racism in them. I have lived all my life with them and i know what i am talking about. I went for a job induction with a new company and as soon as i drove into the car park, i noticed few white staff standing in the car park where visitors allotted parking spaces were. The look and the question on their faces was pretty much obvious and of course the same; "Where on earth does he get the money to buy that car for God sake". I swear down, the look on their ugly faces reeks of nothing at that present moment but instant hate towards me and that instantly informed the reason why i knew that something was about to happen. Having lived with these idiots for years, I knew they would still come back for me and they did Jesus Christ. Having lived with these people for so long, I knew at that Job induction that they were still coming for me. And to my greatest surprise, they didn't disappoint me; they came for me with an excuse that my car was blocking the entrance to the car park. They asked me to move my car and look for a parking space outside the company premises. I felt disgusted and Nigeria spirit in me came alive with full venom.... I shouted and displayed full madness that day. I shouted on them so much so that the HR manager started shaking....... They couldn't stand me all through my years there as much as I couldn't stand them too. They couldn't look at my face since that first day till i left to start my own business..... My business was established as a result of racism' experience. 16 Likes |

I never felt embarrassed when I encounter such Racist situation abroad. Sometime I laugh and try to resolve the Issue like you did. because I know my own people in Nigeria has done the worst due to tribal Issue. Yoruba and Igbo Encounter is the worst. |
Re: A Discriminating Experience In Poland by Nobody: 5:37am On Sep 22, 2015 |
EnlightenedSoul:Perhaps! Sometimes you might know your rights but can't be able to defend them and get yourself out of the lies or blackmail. There are some situation where you don't have evidence to prove otherwise that's when you see innocent people who know their rights ending up in jail. It is not all about knowing one's right alone. The world is a horrible place and people who are helpless need to be very careful. 2 Likes |

Atmmachine: If that wasn't racism then why was he suspected out of d whole lot to be the owner of the baggage? Let's stop justifying the wrong actions of these white pple, what is wrong is wrong. Just a single racist comment from Suarez to Evra(don't know if u wtch football) made Evra report to FA n Suarez faced d music. And u see this public embarassment as nothing? If we don't fight against racial discrimination, be it in d smallest form, then we are worsening matters. I believe if he takes the right step n report to d right authorities, no black will be treated this way again in that airport. Yes, the whites are nice pple no doubt, but we should condemn their wrong deeds when they are wrong. 1 Like |

magicminister:Blacks especially black Africans suffer from inferiority complex in their interactions with whites. Couple of years ago I flew into Lagos from Atlanta on Delta airlines and they misplaced my luggage, so I went to the airport the next day. The oyinbo delta agent at the airport was just ignoring all our questions about our luggage and ordering the Nigerian staffs around like dogs, I was so pissed I started yelling on the dude to produce my luggage or else. And my fellow passengers and the Naija staffs were looking at me like, this guy is brave o talking to oyinbo like that. 7 Likes |

Polish people can be quite racist(I have met a few growing up who were nice though and hung with africans), I had to leave my old job because of the new Polish manager. He tried to pick on the blacks at work, very condescending too, reported to the general manager, but it was like I was yearning dust. Abegi, money nor go make some dirty person come think say dey betta pass me. @op, sorry oo but it happens, I guess it's your first time, that's why you are so "shaken". 1 Like |
