Ciao Ragazzi! Today's video is different, considering the recent events that have been happening in the USA recently I felt the urge to speak out about my personal experience with racism, our problem living together as an interracial couple and Ale's experience as a white guy acknowledging this matter.
all lives matter but today we focus on black lives matter
We hope you will enjoy the discussion
Ciao Ciao Ciao
👏👏👏👏👏
ANEW WEEK, A NEW VIDEO.....another day in our life in Germany :))
Did Ale just say ""because am privileged to be white" "???? :-? :-?
Yes, not being discriminated for your skin colour is a privilege.
yes he did and he is right . I love his honestity, he is realistic somehow 👌
@@Lempies OK 👌👌
Lempie, thank you! Life can be very channeling and with racisms it make so hard... Be strong and hang in there. I've been there also. Ale he's got your Back 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤗

Lempie please stop saying that is "my" problem. Do not own it..it is THE problem not yours. Your husband is right you must push back every single time.
Guys, you need to understand Lempie's situation, especially in Germany..how do you fight back? Create a scene in public and have your professional roof tarnished? You guys who haven't lived in Germany really might not understand . It is perfectly alright to acknowledge the situation the way she is doing without overly dramatizing it in public. I am quite sure that the provocations are done purposely inorder to provoke arguments and bitter exchanges since they already know that we black people have temperament. I feel sometimes one has to just play stupid to avoid creating scenes.It is what we call emotional intelligence. To be able to tame your emotions intelligently that is what makes a difference.
Get your minority friends to boycott that business or client institution also.
You should know English isn't their first language. I feel that they or she tried to explain herself in a manner where we can all understand
@@PhiloLutta no that's what keeping black people in bondage. Yes you do react irrespective of causing a scene, that's not the point! The onus should not be on black people it should be on the oppressor. People from my nation fight back.
@@BF-bb5us the best way to get back is to not cause a seen if you cause a seen they will turn everything around on you and call the police that look just like them. record it and report it and leave a bad review is the best way to go
Ale you are the man.
Always respectful and loving toward wife. I am black too, and the beautiful thing is God created us in his image so we all stand blessed today in Jesus name. You are sweet husband Ale. Please it would be nice you talk and share more, just need to hear you too in video.
Thank you guys, God bless.
Wow 👍🏾 up Ale,you are the man! I'm very happy that you are even encouraging your wife to stand up for herself.You guys really suit each other "a white chocolate and,a dark chocolate are all sweet"! Don't listen to what they say about you,stand up for each other!
Right 😊
Ale, in most confrontation cases, if a black person get aggressive. Chances are that that black person will sleep in police custody that night. So often black people are submissive not because they don't want to stand up. But because we really have no chance of winning the argument at that point. So we play submissive so we can carry on about our business
Lately,there hasn't been a ' carry on'.Blacks r being murdered by police even relaxing in the privacy of their homes
There was a case in Germany of a young black woman and a white german cashier. The cashier wanted to make out that the last names on her debit card was different from her id. Now why she wanted to see her ID is strange to me. Your ID in this country is data protected. Anyways, the cashier continued to humiliate the black woman and the police were called. The first police came in and sided with the cashier leaving the black lady dumbfounded...later the police supervisor stepped into the store and reprimanded the police who had threatened the black lady with arrest. Later the news reported that the first investigating officer was charged with racism and it was going to court.
Ale and Lempies will go far in life. You are both beautiful souls and are so aware of your environments. I wish you the best.
He is completely right. We do have to speak up and not be complacent. There's no use in harping on about racism if there is nothing to counter it.
Alexander you are honest in your expression continue being there for your wife. Lempie you are a strong woman I expected tears rolling down when you were expressing yourself ndeembela aatokele oyekukolondeka nale. Keep strong girl Ale loves you so much.
Eeno mbela wan. But I love how supportive Ale is towards her.
Lempie... That's how the world is my sister, just stand up and defend yourself. Ale... Weldone... Continue defending your beautiful wife against racial attacks. You are all beautiful guys... Ciao... Ciao
OMG I am black, I didn't know, I was white this morning😂😂😂😂
😂
Nice video. I like the concern on Ale's face when Lempi was describing her personal experience with racism. Lempie you are glowing! Your natural look is so on point! 🙄
Your husband is so right.. Love your
At airports I now think that the cameras are set to pick colour of skin. At all times travelling in Europe I end up being the one to be the random person to be searched. In France they searched my case for tea bags that were in someone's case. I stood there and told them to pack my bag exactly as it was before they took everything out. In Germany I was interrogated when i was passing through connecting flights from Czech Rep. I actually had a few words with one of the immigration security/officer and I made sure I put him in his place. They are also quick to make it appear like you are causing drama when you stand against racism. We have a long way to go but we must never get tired. Good topic and discussion👍
After 911, my father always gets stopped because he’s Indian and that’s close enough to Arab... also 911 spawned the term sand n word which I had to deal with all of highschool...
That's how I feel whenever I am catching a connecting flight in Amsterdam. I am the only black woman waiting in a sea of whites and I am the only one they call and check my passport and tkt.
Same going through Canada one year. Landed in Edmonton and the custom man asked me about my passport not being the same as my son's and that I had been travelling half the world in the last 2 months and now wanting to stop in Canada.....how can that be he asked. I told him it is what it is and it was none of his business. He made sure.....I noticed the little red sticker later that he had put on my bags.....I was searched for almost 2 hours...being highly pregnant and nowhere to sit....I just let them get on with it. When the woman found nothing she started to walk away from my open and in disarray suitcases. I said no no no, you are going to pack it all back together just like you found it. She did. You really have give them as good as they give....the moment they see you behave too humble you have given away your power.
Lempie, you are looking gorgeous. Those shades of blue that you're wearing complements your skin tone. You should wear this colour a lot!
I read through other people's comments and I would say most of us experience racism. I did too on numerous occasions and I cannot finish sharing all of them .However, I have my way of dealing with racism. I do not ignore it . I deal with it as it comes. I am important just like any other person is.
Lempie...I totally agree with Ale on this one, as black people we have to continually speak up about racism whenever we are targeted. Each and every time...we cannot be fearful of making the racist know that we know that he or she is being racist towards us...whenever you confront a racist, you are taking your power, your confidence, your sense of self back....
Racism is alive and well in Namibia still. Lempies' shopping experiences I've experienced as well from being followed in the shop, to not being allowed in the shop to only you having your bags searched. People telling you they don't do your type of hair (even though you asked to buy a box of hair dye). Then there is work, I am an engineer, I was also in consulting - it is frustrating when you turn up and the client calls your boss to say you are incompetent but give no reason why, to being called your white junior engineer's personal assistant. I pretty much left for academia when meetings started being conducted in Afrikaans, a language I don't speak nor understand, even though I would often ask people to speak English. Then there were clients I was not allowed to see on my own, all white, but the black clients only I should go to.
What is frustrating in Namibia is that you experience racism from not just whites but also from black people. The effects of colonialism go really deep and I don't know how or even if we will be able to reverse them.
Once people realize that people are just people and we are all the same, then we can end the divisiveness. I have never met a person, no matter their color , who doesn't need to use the washroom when they wake up. We are all human beings. Love you both. Stay safe stay well
Different colors, one people
Lempie, these people underestimate you, that’s why they are surprised/they can’t believe that you have a Dr.’s title, just because you’re black. It happens to a lot of black people in several countries in Europe or elsewhere. If a black person drives an expensive car, he could be stopped by the police, because they think it isn’t possible that he can afford that, so he must be selling drugs. It happens in Holland and England. Don’t know what’s the situation in Germany. Let the love between you two prevail. 😍😍💪🏾💪🏾
Albert Frederick true, and we all have red blood not white or black or different blood colors
Eleonora Rensch I know most black women in the US no longer carry their handbags or purses while shopping coz they’re always suspected to steal something and hide inside them and so they are searched every time while others go free
It's so hurtful when someone associates a black person with stealing. I feel it's an insult to my upbringing (African)..we have morals and ethics u know🤷.it's further an insult to my hard work.
Lempies you’re glowing! Whatever you did to your skin/makeup/camera set up keep doing it! Your cheekbones omg ❤️
Thanks
Man he is an ally!! You are not about to disrespect his woman. ❤️ I love it. I love how comfortable you are conversing about this. You are right Lempies. I’ve experienced racism professionally. Mind you, black women in America are the most educated of all groups. However we are one of the poorest financially
I am in Ale's camp here. I always confront the situation. I cannot tell you how many retail staff and security guards I have marched up to and asked, 'can I help you? Why are you following me?' I enjoy reversing the discomfort.
Thanks for the tip 🙌🏿 i have to admit I don't really try to confront strangers. But I think feom now on I will try this 🙌🏿
@@Lempies Maybe don't do it if it isn't in your personality. I have a South African grandfather and wanted to live in SA about 10 years ago, but my mother warned me I would constantly fight with the boers and end up dead. I live in a comparatively cosmopolitan European city in a wealthy neighbourhood. I perhaps would not fare as well as I do if I lived in different circumstances, say a small town full of one type of person or a less cosmopolitan city. I don't know. I have heard of neo nazis and racist attacks in Germany. Perhaps you are wiser to just dismiss ignorant people.
The introduction is already full of arguments. Thank you Alex for calming your wife. Lempi please learns to be a good listener!
I think you should listen to your husband, you are too passive, I love his attitude, he'll fight for you because he doesn't see you as a victim and maybe you do. But he understands the uninformed and ignorant that forms the myopic view of racist and their system. He is perfect for you. Peace ♥️
You have said it👌
I totally agree. And, I am a 63 yo Black woman born in a southern state of the United States and have experienced the KKK up close and personal. Ale is the real deal.
Then, we would be fighting every day.
Ale is very insightful and sweet. Thank you Ms. Lempie for sharing your stories--very interesting about Namibia back in the day as well. I also agree with the point that the darker the skin tone, the worse off people have it. I think that this is why a lot of people are bleaching their skin. While I understand, it breaks my heart.
Well racism is more to do with where you originally come from..it is even past the skin. The fact that one is from Africa even if they might have a lighter skin shade..makes no difference. It is all about BEING AFRICAN. You ll see many people from the Caribbeans and South America being looked at differently than Africans especially in Germany. A black girl from Cuba or Peru or Colombia will be given special attention than an African.
I live in Canada and there is as much racism, (SILENT RACISM). It's not done like tge USA but you experience it when applying for jobs, apartment, following you in stores and so on. It's just sad and it hurts. When you express your feelings you're being told that nothing like that exist here. As a black person I feel the pain and humiliation. All we want is equality but this pain keeps passing on from generation to generation. It needs to stop!
Tamara Joseph, do you mean the pain and " humiliation"?
Tamara Joseph That stuff happens in the us as well, I'm sorry it happens at all. It sucks
I boycott businesses that treat me unjust and report them to BBB😋😙
Oh you look absolutely stunning Lempie💕Both you and Ale are a great couple , love you both.
I love how very real you guys are on camera.
Thanks 😘
Ale is a great man..Intelligent and well spoken❤
Ale is a good man with positive mindset looking things from a different point of view. I wish all man in the word could be like Ale. Congurats Man.....especially the countries they are talking about!
Hey lempie ,me (Ethiopian) also experiencing the same thing working as a civil engineer here in Germany
i just love you guys ❤❤
I had to pause the video and comment. I live in France and every time people see me, they assume that I am a refugee and I'm not. Once I took a private taxi, the lady driver started yelling at me for standing where I shouldn't be. Well, I explained to her that I have never been to the area before, so I did not know. She goes and tells me that, you don't work yet you get pay every month. I was shocked, I told her that I am far from that, I work in IT within the government and contributed with my taxes. She didnt believe me at all, for her, I'm black and I must only be a refugee.
I feel you.. believe me!
This is a little strange in France, because French has oversea's provinces with black majorities and many of their best athletes are black too. Not to mention that France already had an African education-minister in the 1950s, who later became the first president of Senegal.
Lempie you are so passionate and I feel your pain. Ale is trying to understand your position but I don’t think he gets it. He has some work to do if he’s going to understand. The fact you get stopped at the airport every single time should be proof enough for him that racism is alive and well. Ale, what are you going to do about it even when Lempie is not around?
she has to be stopped due to her being from a developing country it can't be because she's black. I'm a black American and not once did I have a problem traveling through Europe. no one stopped me. in fact they were nice enough to almost make sure I was stranded in Italy because I came a little late for my flight home
You guys are so beautiful.
You two are so beautiful!! Wow!
I greet with everything Ali said
Your husband Ale is right stand up for your self.💪 and be strong.
I dont like to fight with strangers 🙌🏾
I can associate, but I never accepted, I always immediatly adress the moment and confront. Most of the time I'm not being discrimanated but I don't forget that it still can happen. We should always adressed it.
I know a black Senegalese man who lives in Germany with a PHD degree was asked "You have a PHD? Is your qualification real or did you pay for it? 😤" I would never live in Germany for any amount of money!
Madrid is worse
This was a bad experience. My wife was considered over-qualified by her employer with her university-degree and everybody there recognizes that her English is much better than those of the local much younger pedagogues.
I agree with Ale, I had an argument with my sister about it. Her partner is white and her partner grandfather is a racist and she gave an excuse that he is old. I told her so it is ok if he is racial to a child, so is that ok?
Lempie, I am now in DC waiting for the plandemic is over, I live in Madrid and face it everyday and I find it my responsibility to educate them with my attitude and information, I will never give up WE have to do it till it stops, PERIODT.
Amen! You’re so right.💪🏾
Ale is right, you have to stand up for yourself Lempie. I have experienced the same thing, but it was a little kid that said to me when I was reading a story to group of young children: “you’re black”. I responded: “oh, I didn’t know”, than there was laughter from the the parents.
Racism mostly come from jealous and ignorant people. They want to feel superior because of their ego and low self esteem. I am a JAMAICAN and live for 22 years in Munich Germany. Honesty i don't have a lot of experiences with racism .but there's racism not always from the German ' s side but from other foreigners too. You guys are a beautiful couple. Love crosses border brings me her lol .
Glad you talk about what is happening about black people 👌
It true black people being watch in store , I have that experience over and over as I enter a store some one continue watching me came right beside me like they are working😀
Absolutely right. I'm experiencing the same here in Germany. I don't know how to change this stupidity. Very frustrating. By the way You look beautiful Lempie!
I agree with your husband. We need to keep fighting!
Ale is right and please listen: He is your husband and will protect you. Just have a voice if someone is discriminating towards you. Don't ignore it and say it's work. next time they will not do it again.
Hi I think K
Lempe's he is really protecting you from people how discriminate you.my husband is Dutch Ian Indian, but he does not stand up for me ,like your husband.so it's nice for you.good luck from uk
I agree with lampie, sometimes when you are in a situation where you personally you know you are being targeted because you are black , you always have to think twice weather to stand up for yourself or just let it be. Because in most cases if you do decide it’s either you get killed or hurt at the spot or they charge you with some upset ridiculous charges and frame you for something you didn’t do. And this happen in Africa/Namibia too. To make it worse sometimes it’s your fellow black person do it.
I love this couple!
I TOTALLY AGREE with your husband. BLACK PEOPLE MUST stand up for ourselves.
I feel for you guys. He’s protective and wants to be supportive but he can’t understand how pervasive and exhausting this is . It’s potentially dangerous to « stand up for yourself . » and it NEVER stops.
It sounds like i have to fight strangers every time I step out of my house 🤷🏿♀️🙆🏾♀️
She is wrong... she needs to stand up for herself.. her husband is super right
We are all people. Either you are white or black we are all created by God. I love you Lempie and Alex. I'm black Lady from Namibia.
I totally agree with your husband that you need to be more aggressive when it comes to dealing with racist people. (Verbally not Physical) also you've to be very assertive and speak your mind whenever they do stuff that didn't seat well with you. constant and intense confrontation takes out the energy in them.
I think having to explain, fight or justify yourself in a white sosciety, it’s like waiting to exhale or waiting to be acknowledge for ur very existence.....if anyone has a problem with my dark skin to them I’d say I wouldn’t change it for any other 💁🏽🧑🏾😊
🤣🤣😂🤣black but beautiful 👌💪and suu Ale you're a champion
You are smart lempie❤
Don't worried you gat a nice skin don't feel sad
Very interesting and timely topic. Sadly, racism is still a serious issue in 2020. As Ale said, this issue should be a thing of the past. I would just like to say that comparing the experience of being in a mixed race marriage in the 60s and 70s with the experiences of my biracial child and multiracial grandchildren, progress has been made. Obviously, it has been too slow.
As shocking as recent events have been here in the US, I have been encouraged by the racial diversity and composition of the massive protests against racism, brutality, and injustice within our police departments and courts. Unfortunately, the Trump administration has been a huge setback for racial equality in America.
Most of my experience with racism has been in the US and Mexico, but on two trips to Europe with my granddaughters, I felt the racist reactions of people there were very much the same as in the US -- a minority of people were rude and overtly racist.
You two are such a great couple. Lempie, thanks for sharing your experiences and feelings -- you are such a strong and beautiful person.
Nice conversation, thank you...
Your wife is very very beautiful woman.
True. Lempie natural beauty and the brains
Love you both
If i am followed in a store, I usually put down the merchandise, show them my Gold credit cards and advise that they just lost a sale. Do not patronize any store that discriminate against you.
Well, prejudice is annoying , disturbing, disrespectful ... in essence should not happen. Albeit Lempies, as a biologist, you know what pattern recognition is. People do it as part of the natural way of thinking. Means nobody starts out thinking without prior knowledge, perceived or real one. So one takes clues and evolve judgement based on that. One might be wrong. But the more often the judgement was halfways accurate (oxymoron) the concept (prejudice) is engraved even deeper. And any exemption that happens does not destroy it. The person at the airport has his patterns in the head and he acts accordingly. He works in an environment where intuition plays a big role.
I just watched another youtuber, serpentza, who had this to say: The day he came in a suit (totally unrelated to his job as computer technician) he was treated completely differently by his customer. Even being offered a coffee and given readily access to the troubling computer. While all the other days when he appeared in "normal" clothing he had to wait for telephone calls and the work just performed to be finished. Since that day he wore a suit to work and was treated differently. Like an equal not a servant. If you appear at a customer in "business outfit" I don't think that anybody will assume you are a refugee even being black. So appearance matters. A white guy/gal in ragged clothing would probably also not be recognized, or assumed, to be the consulting representative. See the word representative here.
In the end appearance matters. And the appearance consists of behavior/speech, clothing and, of course, skin color. Not in that order. Ideally people would ask for the business you are there for and go from that. But in real life people make decisions based on the (first) impression. Some more openly and faster some less open and not as quickly. People don't start from scratch with their thinking. That's in the biology. But by training all the prejudice could be put on hold and a neutral approach being taken. That would avoid many awkward, and hurting, situations. But, as at the airport, it will not go away. Humans are humans. Only if there will be enough people that meet those with prejudice they will go away. The patterns being destroyed.
I can see that a life with constant encounter with prejudice is not desirable. So a constant working environment could be an answer for part of it. But the rest of life? I feel so sorry for you! I shouldn't have to! Wishing things were different.
My husband travels a lot
And he has one of the worst experiences the second to last time he went away
He was totally stripped
It's very bad coz we are all God's Creation
Lempies I agree with Alecs. You have to be just as energetic as the ones who are being energetic to be racist towards you. I was being followed by an older guy in a store where I shopped for many years. He was behind me with his fake shopping bag. I turned around and went straight up to him right in his face and just stood there staring in his face. He didn’t walk around me, he didn’t say anything to me. But he stopped following me.
Thats true we do need to stand up for ourselves. ..
No Alex! The most intelligent people are the most racist! Racism doesn’t have a specific person, racism comes from all sorts of people. It’s a learned behavior.
ILY❤❤
Great video. In the US as black people we are also followed in stores. In elevators white women will often visibly hold their purses and handbags closer when black men enter the elevator. It's a very common experience for even professionally dressed black men. As a black woman from the Caribbean, professional and sedate, my hand luggage has been swabbed for drugs upon returning from vacation in my home country. This is so insulting as I am middle aged with a respectful and respectable bearing. Years ago, I taught my young son to be kind by holding the door open for the next person behind us. It was not uncommon for adult people to stride through, not a word of acknowledgement to my young son. Would a young white boy be acknowledged? Another aspect of racism is in systems, having people be suspicious of my credentials, as if they were purchased online, even as my bearing matches my education. Also, being told that I speak well is an insult. As an educated woman whose first language is English, it should come as no surprise that I speak well! I could go on and on but realize i am in full rant mode. Thank you Lempie and Ale for this video. Thank you Ale, for being an ally to the diaspora. Share your thoughts with your friends so we may gain more allies in the diaspora. Looking forward to your next video. Blessings
Thanks for taking the time to write this comment and share your experiences 🔥🙌
A woman from the Netherlands once asked me in a crowd of Germans, how did you get here?
I said one Ausländer is asking another Ausländer how she got here!!! I said it loudly and I could see the floor slipping beneath your feet. Then I announced to her that it wasn’t in a banana boat.
This is interesting topic.. I faced racist comments from my own black people in South Africa when I was with white colleagues. I also faced it alot when we went for shopping as a group, only my bags were searched but theirs were not and my friends were shocked seeing my own people do that to me. I live in England and never faced racism here
I agree with Ale to some extent. I used to say express my viewpoint too. Actually, I used to laugh at some of the people in some situations, used to embarass them because they expected me to feel small, but I didn't feel small. I still wonder why
Oh no....who told you she was black😳...now what are you gonna do😯.......I think you are stuck my friend😊....PEACE AND LOVE❤
My wife is a POC. She recently had an experience involving racism. It has really effected her but she won’t talk to me about it. Any suggestions on how to get her to open up? How do I make her feel comfortable talking to me about something I will never experience as a white male?
Well, limit yourself to hear the story.. don't comments just hear her out first and then if she ask give her support
bubulele looking cute love the jean and head wrap
People are ignorant. We are all the same race which is called HUMANITY. That means we should be loving and compassionate to all our brothers and sisters. There is a saying in Sanskrit "Vasudhaivam kutumbakum"...it means, "The world is my family." 💜💖💙🌷
Lempies and Ales, do you know a few years ago; Oprah Winfrey, one of the wealthiest black woman in the world! Was discriminated against in a high end Booutique in Paris: due to the color of her skin? The the store attendant literally refused to sell her a Louis Vuitton pocket book because he didn't know who she was, any they bag was a couple thousand dollars, which she was purchasing for her friend Gayle king's daughter, he thought she couldn't afford it because of the color of her skin, she had the last laugh tho, after all the dust settled, he found out who she was, after a managerial intervention; and he finally decided she can have the bag. The young lady for whom the bag was to be purchased, refused to accept the bag, so they lost a big sale, and got negative publicity..so yeah! I totally agree with Ales, racist people are ignorant, some are well educated, but have no common sense, others uneducated and clueless..it's an acquired behavior; passed on. Its generational.. Lempies I agree with Ales, sometimes! You have to put folks in their place..
Yhea, I knew the story... Unbelievable!
Heard about this story too. Same from one of the two athletes on my mobile, she once said in an interview when she's driving her luxury car from Minnesota down south to visit family she's regularly stopped by police in the south who can't obviously imagine that a black woman owns such a car. And the policemen always seem intimidated when she gets out of her car - no wonder, 1,95 meters tall, 91 kilos and shoulders as wide as half her car. The typical body of a basketball-center what she is.
About controls at the airport. I suppose that police act according to statistical information. I am white, but I was always searched because I travelled with a Venezuelan passport.
Policemen are not known for having the keen scent of a sniffer dog, nor for being very sensitive persons.
Definitely police have statistics, but probably the cartel know about it!
Unfortunately too many people from Latin America are caught with drugs on airports. Of course the innocent ones pay the price. I know that I would be considered a potential sex-tourist if I would travel alone in my wife's country, at least in certain areas where many foreigners go to. Not where we are, because around us are only locals.
@@Lempies I think you mean cartels, plural. There are always several of them in various countries fighting amongst temselves to become the most powerful one!
Alex please have conversations with your wife about being black from a child to now as an adult. until you have the hard conversation about being black, and being open to listen and try to understand where she is coming from. It is going to take time to fully understand. Just listen to her. Support her and Continue to love an embrace with the caring I know I know you have for her . I love you guys stay strong.
I love that... I think it takes time to understand. 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
Lempie, these people underestimate you, that’s why they are surprised/they can’t believe you have a Dr.’s title because you’re black. Reality is that no one can take you’re title away from you. The fact that they are watching you in stores/shops etc. happens to all Black people everywhere. When I buy groceries I always want a receipt, because you never know what can happen. Let the love between you two prevail and you will overcome whatever happens in your life. 🙌🏾😍😍😍
It just seemed that the work that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr struggle to make people aware of racial equality has been forgotten. Its very sorry.
Give the poor man a kiss💑
She kiss me all the time believe me!
Its really crazy world we live in.
I'm a black person living in Europe (Denmark) and I dont feel like I have experienced airport racism. I DO think that there is (slightly) more scrutiny if you're a non-EU citizen, but that is kind of to be expected. They are citizens, we are not. Btw, I'm American. When we are in the U.S. my husband who is Danish and white gets extra scrutiny and has to go through a separate line because he is not an American citizen. Perhaps your experience also has more to do with being non-EU than being black?
After 6 years we received the EU German citizenship.
Maybe, although my wife was last told at the airport in Vienna that she could use the privilege-immigration-lane for EU-citizens in the future, because she has a permanent residence-visa and is therefore considered almost the same as an EU-citizen. She could easily become an Austrian citizen after being married to me for more than 23 years, but she doesn't want and I didn't want her to change her citizenship either. For the simple reason that we'll settle in her country anyway once we retire and her only privilege with my citizenship would be that she could vote. And as I never vote here she's not interested either. Her (of course non-white) president is also closer to me than the one of my country.
When I was married interracial for 26 years,s sometimes people would separate me from my spouse when in line at restaurants even when we were clearly a couple/ fan with children
Your wife is damn pretty colour is just a layer a person's good nature and modesty is all that matters this concept will take time for the world to accept but remember there is going to come a new world where people will dwell in unity irrespective of our race colour nationality etc
I know ,it's hard!😑

I would be curious how the situation is vice versa in Africa. How are Whites seen by the majority of Blacks ?
Lempie, Please Write that Namibian university and make them aware of their photographer's inherent racism. The photo editor of the yearbook is also at fault too

You should say to them Limpies, take your hand off of me. I know I am black and black is beautiful 🙂. You never see me in the tanning salon trying to be black, but you do and you always taking 🌞 tan to get like me. Limpies, I a very rude person and people do not try that s*** with, because they know what coming. Ale, he's right you have to be strong and stand up. Where I live I was the first black original around all the white and we have two other blacks now, but they respect me because they know I don't take SHIT FROM THEM. WE ARE LIKE FAMILY.
What is your career my girl...Ndapewa from Namibia
racism is definitely worse in europe than America I could not believe the way I was treated there. some countries were worse than others. People were the meanest to me in France!!! people always complain about ameriica being racist but I can count on two hands how many times I've been discriminated against in 24 years and two of those happened when I was a child.
one example of the difference is the fact that when the buzzard goes off at the door when I leave the store in America I'm ALWAYS told to keep going and that it's ok I'm fine. ameriica is very diverse unlike Europe so people are used to seeing people that don't look like them often and I think that helps a lot whereas in europe it's very white.
Great couple! You two look like me and my husband we have been happily married for nearly 17 years. And if you would like to learn some spanish here I am ;-) Everyone is welcome!
I can't hear when both are talking at the same time.
Ok, next time we will try to not talk on each other
