34. "RE: The myth of global racial tolerance - outside of the US" In response to In response to 33
true..very true. as soon as i posted, i got online with a friend of mine who's an african jew and she was telling me about all the injustice she experiences on the regular when she's in Europe, trying to attend a synagogue and what not (you DO KNOW that MANY european/white jews don't ACKNOWLEDGE African jews?? crazy...)
it seems like it, but it isn't. hell, i'm sur eyou remember all of those bombings in London that were racially motivated a year or two ago??
no one's perfect--i think we all assume it's different in the states cause of what we SEE on tv and NOT what we experience for real.
