People talk about how tough we have it here, but trust me it's much harder being a black person in Europe.
You can be 2nd or 3rd generation born there but they'll always treat you like a foreigner (same with Arabs). Racial discrimination is pretty blatant there because it's not illegal. There's never been anything like the civil rights movement in Europe for minorities.
The concept of a "black European" is just not feasible to them (the only ones who might get access are soccer stars).
Despite its flaws, America remains the best place to live for black people (outside Africa, of course).
