I’m speaking like young males

good or bad

Skinny tall , long curly TikTok hair

I personally love all Habesha people and anyone who can think for themselves does too

Worked alongside a family of them for my volunteer work

Good. Went to school w some Somalians

I honestly think out of all the African groups in America, Somali and Ethiopians aren't as stigmatized.
Mostly non threatening compared to African Americans of the diaspora

Absolutely and even then crackers still have their goddamn bullshit its so annoying

This wrong because different black people have different perceptions, Jamaicans aren’t the same as Nigerians and Haitians have their own perception

It’s like me saying Iranis are perceived the same as Indians or Turks ( two completely different images)

Somalis are Muslim tho so they have two strikes with racists Black and Muslim it’s 2x the racism

Ethiopians are Christian so they can assimilate easily

Do you mean among black people or white america in general?

I honestly think white america is more comfortable with y'all than negros descendants of slave trade.

its true they arent the same but I think hes talking about it from the view of a white American

Among whites. And blacks tbh.

Either super quite and studious or super funny

Half of America is conservative, they don’t see any difference between bare surface level stereotypes. The other half is made up of people who still perceive those stereotypes without any knowledge of culture but just won’t judge you based on it

S*** @NawfsideRanger thinks I’m f***ing Arab IM NOT ARAB DUDE

"Half of America is conservative, they don’t see any difference between bare surface level stereotypes. The other half is made up of people who still perceive those stereotypes without any knowledge of culture but just won’t judge you based on it"

This is literally you

white people are definitely more comfortable with foreigners who are black than people who are descendants of american slaves. The same can be said about nearly every group in the U.S. as well

Somali Americans are such a minority I dont even think most people have a perception of them. Like where do you even find them? I assume DC but still. Is this really something worth discussing?

Minneapolis and Seattle got a lot of Somalis

Toronto has tons of Somalis

define "a lot". Like is it a substantial amount like for instance the amount of haitians in florida or in nyc/ct etc or nigerians in texas/atlanta

Captain Phillips and Ilhan Omar

None

Toronto ain't america but I feel u
