Post subject: How many negroes in your Neighborhood?
I am not so sure if we Somalis should consider ourselves as non-negroes...surely member of KKK or skinhead will never differentiate us from rest of black race.
Short story: I went to all white city University; one night I was coming back to my dorm and while walking in a well-lit street, I was yelled at by bunch of white kids in an automobile..."Hey Niger...where's the Jin & Juice party tonight"...
Few weeks later I recognized one of them, at a meal-time-dorm line-up.... I didn't say anything, but the experience thought me a lesson; that even college students are racists.
So no matter whether you are affluent black, a wealthy black, or Somali black student.... you will always encounter racism.
