Do u have any Black people in your city or town ? 🤔♣️

Or Province. Or Island. Or Reservation. There are some in my area. What percentage of Blacks stay in yours. See city data. My city has about 16% African Americans. What about yours. Comments. 🤔✨
I have no idea. Egyptians come in all colors. Racism here is religion related.
@SW-User I don't know why I would be offended by the color of my ancestors. I don't like being called stupid though.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether Spare me the fake news. Egypt is in Africa. The Original Africans were Black Indigenous people. They evolved later on due to multiculturalism and race mixing. Of course there are Blacks here that are almost as light as you. 🙂
@Zonuss [quote]Of course there are Blacks here that are almost as light as you[/quote]

This is hilarious 😂

You know whatever happened happened what matters is now. There's nothing we can do about the past. Just love everyone equally and you're good.

London, it's very multicultural & it's fab!


(Not the French of course)!
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Harriet03 Yes it is. It's a wonderful city. 🙂
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
I live in a university city so there’s a mix of everyone here. About 6%.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@cherokeepatti Okie Dokie. 🙂
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@Zonuss My neighborhood is a melting pot too.
DearAmbellina2113 · 41-45, F
45.7% White, 23.7% Black, 1.3% Asian, 13.0% from other races, and 2.5% from two or more races; 27.8% Hispanic or Latino.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@helenS It's just a classification issue based on economics and government. But I do understand what you are saying. 🙂✨
DearAmbellina2113 · 41-45, F
@Zonuss it's very diverse. Texas. Not far from Houston, which is one of the most diverse cities in the US.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@DearAmbellina2113 Yes it's very diverse there. 🙂

Why is it African Americans? Never hear European Americans, or terms like that. Should I describe myself as Celt English?
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Human1000 If you are in the US the political term is African American. 🙂
Human1000 · M
@Zonuss I’m fine either way. “Black” has made a comeback, too. A bit of “reclaiming.”
REMsleep · 41-45, F
@Human1000 For me black is informal and AA is for very formal uses such as politics.
Loretta78 · 46-50, F
Well, we have some black asylum seekers in our town. And my son is half African/Half Black. 🙂
KristinaM · 36-40, F
@Loretta78 You explained it perfectly
Loretta78 · 46-50, F
@KristinaM Thanks. 🙂
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Loretta78 Interesting. 🙂
cd4259 · 61-69, M
WTF here I Australia everyone lives where they want to and can afford to, no percentages of color, creed or race is taken into account. Except maybe the remote communities in the outback.
helenS · 36-40, F
@cd4259 Appears to be a beautiful country. 🌷
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@cd4259 Not true. Australia has had it's issues with people of color. Recently the Black indigenous ones. 🙂
@Zonuss Australia seems to have the same social issues with its indigenous population as north America has with its indigenous population. Alcoholism, poverty, marginalization , and disenfranchisement. Mostly an overlapping combination of all four, and their interactive contribution to each other.
Zaphod42 · 46-50, M
Every race, creed, religion, sexuality and nationality are represented in my area. When my GF took the citizenship oath over 100 nations were represented by the participants of that one ceremony alone. I have no idea what the percentages are though.

Really, what difference does this make?

@Zonuss The elephant in the room is the pattern that most of us have seen in your line of questioning over the years. You might benefit from a little diversity training. Those people who have the hardest time with racism, are those who refuse to acknowledge their own.
SW-User
Yeah, I think every city or town does.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@SW-User In the US there are towns in Idaho and Iowa that have no people of color. And that is ok. 🙂
Jeffrey53 · 51-55, M
I all kinds of race in my city. The racial makeup in my city was 62.82% White, 16.01% African American, 1.02% Native American, 3.81% Asian, 0.23% Pacific Islander, 11.11% from other races, and 5.00% from two or more races. 24.13% of the population were Hispanic
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Jeffrey53 Diversity. 🙂
My neighborhood is predominantly black. There are other neighborhoods that are predominantly white. It seems like the predominantly black neighborhoods are more common, but I am pretty sure that's just [i]how it seems to be[/i] and not how it really is.
@Zonuss I knew you were shallow, but I had no idea you were [i]this [/i]shallow.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@puck61 Truth hurts. The poor baby. 🙂
@Zonuss Wow! You take 'jerk' to a whole new level.
Dlrannie · 31-35, F
The City I live in is one of the most racially diverse in the country and that’s before you consider the large number of people who come from all over the World to study at its Internationally renowned University. 🙂
Dlrannie · 31-35, F
@RealRomantic Yep the Massachusetts one appeared about 400 years after mine 😂😂😂
RealRomantic · 61-69, F
@Dlrannie Eh? What are you talking about?
Dlrannie · 31-35, F
@RealRomantic Never mind
KristinaM · 36-40, F
It’s about the same as yours. 15.5% black, 5% biracial, 75%white, then the rest asian and Pacific Islanders.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@KristinaM Nice. 🙂
KristinaM · 36-40, F
@Zonuss Thanks. It’s a pretty nice little town 😊
Ynotjenn · F
42% Black
7% Hispanic or Latino
3% Asian

We are a melting pot. You wouldn’t believe it with all the Rednecks here 🙄
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Ynotjenn You know you love them rednecks. 🙂
I have on my street, blacks, Chinese, Indians, italians, polish, Moroccans, Egyptians, Sri Lankans, Australians, French....thats actually the first time I have thought about it
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@InOtterWords Are you in Africa. The UK. France.
🤔
@Zonuss England.
MoonlightLullaby · 41-45, F
Hell if I know. I've never went around counting and sorting through people by color.
@MoonlightLullaby It's just melanin. That is what baffles me the most. The beef is mostly because of culture, history, and individual negative experiences.
Imsleepy · 31-35
The town I grew up in is 86% black. The one I live in now is 15%.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Imsleepy Cool.
TurtlePink · 22-25, F
theres like less than 1% of us in my area
TurtlePink · 22-25, F
@TurtlePink Mainly people from the Marshal islands, big population of Salvadorians, Mexicans, people from India and of course, whites
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@TurtlePink Awesome. It's Black History Month. Celebrate. 🙂✨
SmellyBot · 61-69, M
In 1970's I went to a predominantly white school and then a black family moved in. He was a grade older than me and approached me in the shower asking, "I hear someone's messing with my sister. What do you know about it"?

I said, "I don't know who your sister is, what's she look like"?

He laughed and walked away thankfully lol
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@SmellyBot 🤔
SmellyBot · 61-69, M
😂@Zonuss
RealRomantic · 61-69, F
Yes, there are a fair few. It's a multicultural city.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
Yes and I don`t know what the percentage is.
helenS · 36-40, F
No black people at all where I live. 😐
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@helenS 🙂
arkod · 36-40, M
A few that moved here to lead an easier life.
The rest (from USA) came with the Peace Corps, usually young people.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@arkod What do you mean easier. 🤔
arkod · 36-40, M
@Zonuss Easier as in simpler and sustainable. Those people were from very poor African countries. There was never racism towards Black or Asian people here where I live.
Remembering back 20 yrs ago, I hadn't seen a black person here. It was then when they started moving here.

The kind of toxic, "colorful," racism that exists in USA is completely unfathomable here.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@arkod Interesting. 🤔
jim44444 · 70-79, M
My township is rural with about 1% African American, about 100. We have probably 10 times that in Amish.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@jim44444 Amish. Hmmmmm.🙂
Synyster · 51-55, M
The population of Blacks is around 30.4%. Did you mean Province?
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Synyster Yes. Province. 🤭
Synyster · 51-55, M
@Zonuss No worries, gotcha.
SW-User
Not many. According to census data, my town is 0.4% black. (It's mostly white and Hispanic).
Nobody00 · F

Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Nobody00 Yes. That's about correct. 🙂
SW-User

Caribbean is 20%
Mixed is 10%

From govt. Website
MarineBob · 56-60, M

crashing · 31-35, F

Zonuss · 41-45, M

Zonuss · 41-45, M

SW-User
Zonuss · 41-45, M

Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Lostpoet Cool. 🙂
Nobody00 · F

REMsleep · 41-45, F
@Zonuss I can read, and understand Spanish at maybe 3rd or 4th grade level not withstanding some heavily accented speakers but I have no native languages other than English.
My great grandfather was a native creole speaker but it wasn't passed down.

Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Human1000 Not bad. 🙂✨

@sspec There is absolutely nothing wrong with talking about skin color unless it is rude or obsessive
