You can't blame them being a little bit racist. Just think of your typical black American. You're probably like a breath of fresh air for them.

Well, to be fair, a British accent does make you sound a hell of a lot smarter. This is the truth.

Sup mate, I got thrown out of a club by a big black man the other night over here in Britland. I blame you.

>>2000602
Are you kidding me? In NYC? In NYC?

In the 18 years of living here, I call this topic utter bullshit. Anyone that racist would kill themselves 2 weeks into living here.

What part of Britain? You speaking Estuary English or what?

Uhhh.

On the odd chance that this isn't a troll thread: could you give us some real examples of discriminatory treatment? Maybe as a black man expecting to be treated in a racist manner you perceived racism where there was none. Maybe it's a mix of both.

What you've described is not racism, it's memeism. A black Brit talks and acts like anyone else. A black American is an entirely different memetic creature.

HUR DUR PPLE JUDGE PPL
STOP DA FUCKIN PRESSES

There are many stories of women claiming sexual discrimination to make a quick buck in a lawsuit, as well as gay people claiming homophobia in the workplace to make a quick buck in a lawsuit, and there's been many cases of black people claiming racial discrimination in the workplace to make a quick buck.

So if you are part of any of these groups then you'll be treated oddly initially in the workplace because America is an overly litigious society.

>>2000645
OP here. I'm a Brummie

>>2000671
This is true.

Also, people treat everyone different, consciously or not. It isn't fucking hurting you though. I have an accent from a different part of the US from where I live, and people consider it an oddity but it isn't hurting me. Jesus, grow the fuck up.

OP can read minds!?

That's because in America black folks are tolerated, but always in moderation.

>>2000673
Good god no.

Actually come to think of it that's probably why they're most shocked.

We're not all cockney geezers.

How bad was it in the UK?

>its like "Oh, okay, he's not really a nigger, he's British, so he's an okay black guy I guess."

Yes, that's exactly what it's like. American blacks are generally not comparable to British blacks. Have you interacted with American blacks, yet? Have you had the displeasure of having to deal with an actual "nigger"? When you finally learn just who the people are that are being used as the basis for the way you personally are being judged you'll understand completely. Yea, it sucks, but if "niggers" didn't exist, you wouldn't be judged based on the color of your skin because of them. Just be happy people get over it after getting to know who you really are.

Amerifag here, yeah a lot of us are racist towards black people, sorry. Those of us who aren't you probably didn't notice.

They'd do the same thing if you were white. As soon as they hear a British accent, they treat you totally differently.

America still has a colonialist mentality towards Britain.

>>2000737

Amerifag here in illinois, you must have grown up with some pretty shitty blacks, the blacks here are all nice. If you are in a city, chances are the white people are just as shitty, even if you're wearing different clothes. Cities seem to be filled with the creepiest lowest common denominators of every race and ethnicity. But yeah, there are shitty blacks out there, I just haven't met any personally yet.

>>2000738
It's true. You can think you're not racist up until you live in the inner city with black people. That is when you start calling them niggers. I know some fucking cool black people, too. A nigger is what I call a fucking delinquent, crime-commiting asshole who pull guns on people for looking at them the wrong way. Weed and metal can bring blacks and whites together.

wtf is a Brummie?

Where's the social injustice? Be glad you're not discriminated because of the color of your skin. Also, most niggers would call you an "Oreo" for not being "black"

>>2000737

To add to this, "niggers" are stupid, loud, lazy, aggressive blacks who happen to congregate in large numbers in urban areas. They're the type that prolong their own discrimination. They're the ones who still think they're owed something because their ancestor's ancestors were slaves. They more or less segregate themselves from the rest of the United States and it's cultures. In other words, they ruin it for all normal black people. Unfortunately, they also happen to be a majority of the blacks in the US.

It may not be "right" to assume that every black person is a "nigger" without first knowing them, but it's sure as hell the safer option in an urban environment.

>>2000793
From Birmingham

Most American blacks = violent, anti-intellectual basketballin' rappin' cap bustin' niggers

Most British blacks = most British whites

>>2000793
It's an unfortunate condition. I feel sorry for OP.

>>2000631

This one time I almost married an attractive yet retarded british woman. Her accent made everything she said seem intelligent no matter how stupid.

>>2000844
um no. We have loads of the bad kind of blacks here, unfortunately. Also Muslims, which are even worse.

So people being surprised at your British accent means they are racist?

Did they actually discriminate against you before they heard your voice, or did they just appear to think of you differently? Whole thing sounds odd to me. I know I'd react to anyone with a British accent a little differently, because they're foreign. Also, I live in New York City, and I strongly fucking doubt the responses you're getting are as extreme as you suggest. Half this fucking city speaks English with an accent and anyone who lives here eventually loses interest in playing the "Where are you from, what's your life story?" game.

>>2000842

Which is pronounced Burm-ing-em. Not burming-HAm.
It's not eden-burg either FYI

>>2000869
um no. Chavvy whites are the worst thing we have. Blacks get swept up in it, but it's not a black thing. It's a being-poor-and-stupid thing.

>>2000764

I live not too far from Illinois, in Omaha, Nebraska. I've been to Chicago a few times, and where I visited was pretty much like you said. The black people there were more or less friendly, or kept to themselves. I got high with a few black guys there who were real chill cats. Blacks here, on the other hand, are by far the worst part of our population. They're generally stereotypical niggers. They segregate themselves in North Omaha and account for an astronomically large portion of our local crime.

>>2000844
Most British blacks = most British whites

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

cool story bro

>>2000885
eden-ERG?

>>2000602

Are you ready to Tanqueray?

I'm sure if you started speaking in a thick cockney British instead of a posh imperial British you would quickly see people stop doing this and treating you like shit all the time instead of only before they heard you talk.

It's pretty much the same for any American black person, if they walk in somewhere with a heavy working class or ghetto accent they are going to be treated a lot differently than they would if they were speaking with a high east coast or mid western accent.

>>2000602
That's a good thing, I'm a mulatto shit works out fine for me.

I enjoy not being called a nigger.

I'm able to maintain a productive life without being discriminated against by the black and/or white communities.

tl;dr - mulatto living happily white ppl.
...inb4 nigger!

Black British are usually stereotyped in America to be celebrities like Scary Spice, Lennox Lewis, Seal, Jeffrey from Fresh Prince, etc....

Feels good man

>>2000873


Actually they were giving him racial slurs before he opened his mouth.

As in they were treating him as a bog standard American nigger before he spoke.

do you talk like tony sinclair OP? i imagined you did. :)

I don't get it. OP's complaining about discrimination that he's not getting?

A nigger calling white people shitstains?

>>2000895

omg another Omahan in my /arcanine/?

where you live bitch? you a boy or girl? if you are a girl I will rape you.

>>2000988


That's correct. Not discriminating is racist.

>>2000888
>Blacks get swept up in it, but it's not a black thing. $**#*@(!(##$%#$32

LOL @ british niggerlovers not knowing the facts of nigger crime in the UK. ... isnt it AMAZING how everywhere that niggers go, robbery/rape/murder follow.

==========================

(1) Blacks UK = 2 percent of UK Population
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_United_Kingdom

(2) Blacks = 16 percent of UK Jail Population
http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pdfs05/s95race04.pdf

============================

They did that because you don't have the mark of oppression by their hands. Notice how no black american has ever had a chance at being president but a random Kenyan guy is getting the greatest blowjob ever?

>>2000939

Edinburgh should really be spelt Edinborough, but it isn't. It's pronounced ED-in-bruh.

>>2001040
Scots spelling. Don't be oppressin' mah people, wicked Anglo.

OP, have you ever actually met a nigger? If you haven't then consider yourself lucky. If you have, understand that even in the best scenario, there is a fifty percent chance that any black person you run into is a nigger. That's how it is in America, and if you had to put up with their shit on a regular basis you'd be trigger shy too.

GIES A SHOAT A YIR BOABYS YE RADGE CUNT

OP here.

Mum's Jamaican, dad's Nigerian (inb4mugu). Emigrated to the UK in the 70's. I grew up in Birmingham in a working-class but relatively comfortable childhood. My dad became a shift captain when I was 13, so we moved from a flat to an actual house.

After graduating from trade school, I applied to City College and got accepted, I have been in New York ever since. I make a living as an IT, and I have special permission to be employed in the United States while going to school.

>>2001099
Slight oversight.

I was born in 1986. My parents emigrated to the UK in the 70's. I was born and raised in the UK.

>>2000948
I love seal. great musician.

a black guy with a british accent in new york? i dont get it.

i grew up in hawaii, seeing someone with a british accent would be odd enough, but a micronesian with a british accent who didn't try to rob me would be FUCKIN WEIRD. maybe i was spoiled by my environment.

>>2000764
I laughed. I cried. Good times were had.

You obviously come from some part of Illinois other than the East St Louis or Chicago area... where most of the people live and there is an exceptionally high nigger to black people quotient.

You dont understand, I guess.

Niggers in the U.S. are scum. most of the crimes in this country are committed by them.
Some of them would even shoot you for looking at them wrong.. of course people are scared of them like theyre scared of bulldogs.

But once they see youre not a hood rat, theyre perceptions of you changes.
Its not that theyre black, its that they're savages.

>>2000958
OP's story is bullshit then. White people in New York don't use racial slurs with black people. This was suspect before but if he's wants me to believe people called him a hoodrat or a coon until he opened his mouth, that's just stupid. Notice I didn't include nigger, because white people using that word to a black man's face in New York City is fantastically unlikely.

>>2001200
>I laughed. I cried. Good times were had.

OP, you sound like someone it would be truly awesome to know. I grew up in Rapid City, SD (seen National Treasure 2? Yeah, that's where I live), and now I live in Denver, CO, and I have yet to have a bad experience with a person of the black persuasion. Actually, now that I think about it, that's not true; a big fat black dude called me a faggot as I walked by the Coyote Ugly bar downtown, but that's not a huge deal honestly. For one, I'm a kinda twink-y looking guy to begin with, and I was dressed as the Scout for Halloween, so the baseball socks and rolled-up pants and shirtsleeves may have been a bit much for him, and for another, that's not an bad experience that's *specific* to black people (I don't know what would be, to be honest), he could have just as easily been white, or asian, or hispanic, or whatever. I'm sorry that your experiences have been bad.

What the fuck are you thinking?

NIGGERS IN AMERICA HAVE A BAD REPUTATION COS THEY THINK THEY ARE ALL HARDCORE GANGSTA'S WHERE AS REALLY, WE ALL KNOW WHAT THEY ARE.

Fuck you and your anti-racist threads, you only come across as racist yourself.

Truth ITP

>>2000839
I'm black and that is how "normal" black people view the lowest common denominator of their own.

Chris Rock did stand up once where he went on about how he loves black people but hates niggas. It's pretty hilarious.

>>2000602
American black here. I completely agree. my parents are immigrants to America so they brought me up to speak proper English instead of Ebonics. Now i get to deal with people flipping their assumptions of me as soon as I speak or of course the "anon, you're not black" bullshit.

>>2000704
>always in moderation
fuck i almost chocked on my drink when i read that in his voice.

>>2001283
Chris Rock?

While I like his comedy, I'd have to say he's also a 'nigga' by the way he acts... unless he's just mocking the real niggers. In which case I'd say he's doing a good job at it.

Dave Chapelle, on the other hand.. knows how to mock them pretty damn good.
Now thats a guy I'd like to chill with.

blacks are okay, niggers arent. one of my best friends is black, though he sometimes acts like a nigger. though its funny, because he does it intentionally, because its funny. of course, he was adopted and brought up by white folks in the 'burbs, so that explains it.

unfortunately, OP, you wont find many black people in the usa. its mostly niggers.

I HATE BLACK KIDS WITH BRITISH ACCENTS. I BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF THEM DAILY

>>2001293
real black american here
You're not black. You don't have to face the things blacks do. When white people think of you they know they can't feel guilty for all of the things they've done. You're like a drug to them

>>2000602
YOU DONT LIKE OUR COUNTRY WHY DONT UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU JUSS GET DA FUCK OUT DEN!

>>2001369
I seriously fucking hope you're trolling me. My life wasnt all sugar and candy shits. I grew up most of my young life in a shitty inner city of Atlanta in a school where i could count the white STUDENT on one hand. Still I managed to focus on what was important because I knew I didn't want to spend the rest of my life in a shit hole. managed to graduate with honors and without selling my soul to what a black person "should be like". I don't need to be a nigger to feel hole. Im just fine with being a person.
These "real black Americans" can shovel my shit into their mouths for all i care. If you have no ambition to better yourself and you community Then you should fucking die. For every dick sitting in class yelling "shawty fuck dis shi, i dun need no scoo" or that one bitch spray painting his gang symbol onto a newly painted fence; they all should just die. They are only a burden on the country, the system, their community and even their family for the eventual funeral cost.

Also, im voting obama because maybe we can convince him to support 48th trimester abortions.

tl;dr fuck you and go die

If any american sees a black guy in NY they're gonna assume that he's a nigger. But if he's british, then it's different. Most americans assume that britian doesn't have a lot of niggers if any, just black people.

>>2001354
this.
niggers are in: gym classes (hurr durr basket ball),remedial math, their basement smoking weed all day,your fucking way when you have somewhere to be.
black people are in: your advanced classes, the office next to yours, a nice neighborhood.

I was home schooled and I got scholarships to top universities. I also spent my teen years on welfare and spent the last week of every month without a meal. I do want to better my community but I don't want to include africunts who think they're something special compared to us black americans

hey black guy, what kind of racism do they have in the englands?

Even if I got deported, I own America.

>>2001497
oh you
i never said i was African. way to assume ass hat. (Caribbean islands are a long way from Africa) home schooling doesn't make you special. That is good that you had ambition for your life but if you have ever been to a majority black school then you know its filled with stupid fucktards that cant wait to turn 16 so they can drop out and sell weed and coke. I dont think Im anything special. i don't want to be anything special. however, white people look at me doing what i should be doing and treat it as some kind of magnificent task although they wouldn't give a white student doing the same the time of day.

All i am saying is that i wish black people didnt have to drag each other down so much. Its the reason we cant have nice things.

>>2001655
If black people did that we would be successful. How dare you wish for that! Go back to picking cotton!

Black NY Fag, its why I think we really should nuke East NY/BedSty(or let gentrification do its job), I mean, its a horrible little area, and as we have learned, appartments are hard to police since the NYPD is pretty shitty at policing the buidlings

American black, reporting in. Recently, I had a girl tell me "You're not black." I ended up going through this whole thing about the whole "Intelligence doesn't make a difference in your color" thing. I have to do this alot, and it makes me cringe each time.

Slick Rick is awesome...he keeps it real and raps with a British accent

mootsucksblackcock (wtf I got muteblocked for that?)

Just cause lots of americans are dumb, doesn't mean all of us are. When they hear you talk, they're like "oh mah gawd, he's serfistercated, hurrr"

Britfag here

Americans still think we walk around with bowler hats and bowties and say "cheerio"

Then again, I believe Americans always say "y'all" and "reckon" all the time

>>2000602
If you were an American black guy, i'd only discriminate if you were a "gangsta" with the baggy clothes and chains and cornrows and whatnot.

I have no problem with black people, but anyone of any race who acts "gangsta" should seriously go get an education.

Fucker

That's like saying "Oh, I'm from Italy and I'm in New York and everyone asks me if I'm in the mob, BAAAAWWWW"

Butthurt OP is butthurt

>>2002071
they DO say y'all all of the time and in some parts i guess they say reckon although that is reserved for the truly country bred people.

PROTIP: Tony Sinclair is portrayed by an American actor

Pretty sure you've seen Star Wars. Thats Americana, do they say y'all all the time?

I have some cousins in West Virginia, but they don't even talk like that anymore.

>>2002128
y'all: niggers and rednecks
reckon: niggers and rednecks

Niggers = 10% and South = 40%

50% of America uses those slang terms

although there is prejudice against blacks in the UK, its not as severe as it is in the US...

White Brits are generally more accepting of black Brits, because they come to the UK to be British...hence, their attitude/dress/etc is much like their white counterparts

American blacks, however, are kept down under the notion that they are "lower class." Sure, you have Colin Powell and Oprah, but a large majority of blacks are still on welfare, etc....

>>2001855
I'm a white kid living in Bed Stuy. In other areas I would be more sensitive to arguments against gentrification, but this place could use some wealthier residents. Despite the crazy shit that happens on or near my block at once a week, everyone in my building and almost everyone I've met here is an older, well-educated black person. Lawyers and teachers and stuff.

East New York, well, I'm not sure gentrification will ever get that far... that place is fucked.

>>2001200

Irrelevant, as Illinois residents outside of Chicago and, uh, U of I aren't actually people, just corn factories.
