I Am Black American

For the longest time I dreamed of traveling to every single country on earth. Over the years that has changed however.

After reading experiences from black people who have traveled the world, the thought of constantly being stared at, having pictures taken, being touched, etc. all because you're the first black person the locals have seen does not fly well with me.

In a way, though, having locals in a foreign country stare at you seems kinda fair--you're there to see interesting and exotic sights...and they are, too!

Actually, what you describe tends to happen in small remote villages where foreign people are rarely seen.
