Tunisians, we are also African

The multilingual residents of Tunis, Tunisia’s capital, fancy their city on the Mediterranean to be a thriving, cosmopolitan metropolis. But not everyone is welcome. "Not a day goes by without a black African suffering from racial abuse. The most often-used insult is guira guira which, according to some means in a local dialect ‘big monkey’" says a student from Côte d’Ivoire. "For many Tunisians, we black Africans are savages."

Last week a student from Senegal screamed for help as a group of men started throwing stones at his apartment. He called the police — but it was he who was arrested instead; evidently the color of his skin means that he is not wanted in this cultural heartland. The man lived in the neighborhood of Lafayette, in an apartment complex residents call "the blacks’ building." The tenants are often students from sub-Saharan Africa enrolled in private universities.
