Does America respect foreign blacks more than Black Americans?

Question

I have noticed something in America, blacks born in foreign countries are more respected, face less discrimination in America. Isn't it weird that America treat foreign blacks better than American blacks. Am just suggesting, it might not be true

Answer 1

I've thought the same thing.  But it seems to me that foreign ones tend to be more polite.

Answer 2

That has been a general hypocracy among American missionary groups from all white churches across our great nation.  

Historically, these missionary groups will send thousands of dollars, raise money and send food, medicine and clothes to Africa and totally ignore the hungry and disadvantaged, hungry and medically uninsured black people in their own neighborhoods.  They show sympathy and kindness to people ourside our borders but are judgemental and rude to their own.  They blame blacks in America for being lazy and dishonest but forgive and forget the wrongs committed by those of other countries.  Funny, isn't it?

This behavior is a mystery to me also.  My answer to your question, is "yes we do".  

A black who speaks French, is welcomed in any white Southern Baptist church to give a slide show on the starving people of Zimbabwe and the dishonest govenment there but a black who speaks English would be given the left foot of Christian Fellowship if he tried to come to a white Southern Baptist church to give a slide show of the poverty in the slums of Mississippi.  You betcha!  

Where is that good old fashioned christian attitude of forgiveness and kindness when it comes to our own?

Answer 3

foreign blacks do not disrespect themselves.

Answer 4

You may be right but it depends on what the Americans are representing them self's as. Gangsters, drug addicts? What about the millions who raise their children to be clean, respectful of themselves, law abiding, and educated. I listen to anyone from areas where I have never been and that includes people from the USA too!

Answer 5

blacks need to respect themselves. have you heard how rap music denigrates them?
