      It's a reason why black people are more athletic than others
      (1.) It's in the DNA (2.) It's the power of Melanin
      Google Saan People or Khoisan people. They run over 20 miles to catch animals. If you're ancestors are these people or if you have ancestors that are athletic, then you will have it in your DNA too most likely. Africa is HUGE!!!

    I think we as black people need to stop trying to justify our existence to other races of people. To be yourself is all that you can do. And if someone doesn't like you because you're black, instead of judging the content of your character, then it's not your problem. Keep your head up, and don't worry about the racists. They'll die an early death from being consumed with bitterness, and hate. \ ( ^ _ ^ ) /

      Late but I just wanted to say that It's not really justifying your existence, it's being cautious. Cuz as a black man like myself whos interested in moving to japan, I want to see how to general public sees people of my skin color. If the general public hates us, then I don't go. Just like if a black person doesn't do their research first and moves to Mississippi( which is the most racist state in America currently), they are going to have a less positive experience than if they moved to Japan. But then again I can only speak for myself.

    Don’t think it’s just because of your color, please remind, compare, and change your attitude if something happens in Japan.
    I mean, I think this world is spotting about color too much sometimes.

    "Its hard to read their expressions."
    "They seem like they're always upset."
    In America, *especially* in the southern states, we have to be on guard physically, mentally, and emotionally. So our faces sometimes are set a certain way which can be both intimidating and confusing to other races.

      Well, Yuta supports Multi-Culturalism. Many Japanese don't (I'm native Japanese). It's actually not about existing racism in Japan.
      It's the same argument between the people who support Multi-Culturalism and the people who don't support Multi-Culturalism, in North America or Europe. Sometimes the former call the latter " Neo-Nazi ".
      Yuta likely regards those Japanese as Racist who don't support Multi-Culturalism. Probably he a bigot about liberalism. Or if he is ethnically not Japanese (Korean or Chinese) it's quite understandable.

    • @444levels9
      @444levels9 6 лет назад +4

      nope, that guy is an idiot, and the reason why many people dislike him is not because he speaks the truth as so many other race-tarded people would have you believe, it's because he makes statements as if they are facts without knowing any history or facts behind what he says.... For example he will talk about black people, and FBI crime statistics, and make statements like 'black people have no issues to be concerned about' while doing absolutely no diligence in getting the same level of facts about 'redlining in America and black people, the GI bill and black people, Jim Crow and black people etc... but he'll make stupid statements about the difference between black and white wealth...... news flash... he needs to do a series on where white people in America got their wealth, wealth is something that is accumulated directly over time and via circumstances... also you cannot say that America is such a great place because of what the American gov. has done for it's people with programs like I've listed above that have helped to build, shape, and enrich the lives of white people for generations, and then turn around and say that because black people were systematically disparaged in these regards that for black people all of a sudden it's of no consequence and that they have no right not to be on par with white wealth in America..... that's disgusting and that's not how credibility works. It's just like President trump saying make America great again..... like it was in it's golden era the 1950's... well you can't agree with him and with that, but then turn around and not acknowledge what it was like for black people in 1950s America... it was fucked up, and not only are many of those people still alive but so are the systemic effects of that era...........FFS

      But when people talk about Asia, it is known that they are speaking about a continent and they usually expound upon which countries or regions they are referring to later. Africa, within East Asia at least is usually referred to as if it is a country. And I think that's how this person and I interpreted the answer.

We were selectively breed differently and had different hardships for different amounts of time .

I was recently in Paris, and I was speaking with my sister about people of different nationalities in Paris and how they behave. For example, young male Arabs are very problematic, I speak this from exp, and I was scared of them, while she told me that black people are easy and chill and she have a lot of black and Arabian friends... Anyway they have huge problem with young male arabs there... Btw I am from Serbia...

    Unknown to many people, the Japanese have a long history with African peoples, who gave them their first spoken language in 1st and 2nd century Japan and to be a Samurai warrior in ancient Japan, you had to be of African BLOOD!
    Also, during the 30's into the 50's, most black jazz artists who couldn't get a record deal in AMERICA, went to Japan to perform AND record, then when they returned they became popular! The Japanese have the largest collection of jazz recordings in the WORLD!
    My oldest daughter was into anime so, I told her that the BEST anime, of course, comes from Japan so, you might as well learn Japanese, so, she said OKAY, she was then 6 or 7 and by the time she reached middle school, she spoke FLUENT Japanese and now, she speaks Mandarin (Chinese) too and has many penpals in both countries! I long ago told her, when you learn the language of another people, their country and culture is OPEN to you and she ended up getting a scholarship to study in Japan!
    She took me to a Japanese restaurant once and the menu of course, was in English and Japanese! When the waiter took our order, my daughter gave her the order in Japanese, then told her a joke and she practically dropped the menu from laughter! When our food was brought to our table, everyone in the kitchen came out to hear this young black lady speak their language and when asked where her inspiration came from, she told them she was into anime and that I encouraged her to learn Japanese, they BOWED to US, my daughter was flustered with glee! When we attempted to pay, they REFUSED our 💰, they wouldn't take it! My daughter STILL talks about that! ☺☝

    This video is a poor representation of what the Japanese think about blacks in general, a little to vague. Was stationed there as a member of the military between 1987-89 and most if not all of theJapanese people I met were very hospitable and friendly. I never got the sense they were intimidated by me. I've been to Japan, The Philippines, Thailand, South Korea (3 times), Hong Kong and Mombasa, Kenya in Africa and I can honestly say I never had 1 bad experience in any of those countries. However the media and Hollyweird has done a number on us so called blacks but as the world keeps getting smaller, real truths are being revealed.

There is a difference between ignorance and racism. Notice how they had these thoughts and once they made black friends, they felt better. A racist person would continue to be prejudice even after getting to know black people. So honestly just shut tf up. You’re making us look so bad. You’re the reason this stereotype of angry black people will carry on. Because you WANT to be angry. It fuels your victim complex.

I was never told I'm scary but people don't approach me from what I've been told is because I look sad all the time.. lol but a lot of strangers call me pretty and stuff though. I'm off topic I feel.. From what I have gathered the stereotype for black people is loud,thugish, good at sports, rappers/good singers, masculine women, and have no self control. I think people need to be more open minded and maybe talk to a few black people ang get to know them.

      America is the LAND OF THE FREE. African brothers don't seem to grasp those 4 words. In order to understand us. Don't look for a CULTURE which is a system of REPEATED PRACTICES and BELIEFS passed down from 1 generation to the next. You guys have traditions passed down for 10's of thousands of years. You have your language. You can go back 20'000 bc and speak to your ancestors. African in America we're divided and split apart if they spoke the same language during slavery. Then taught ENGLISH. During this time period immigrants every part of Europe were given incentives like free land to come to America. All we knew was to fight for equality and the end of slavery. TODAY we are waking up to the reality that we are ALREADY HERE in AMERICA when the first Europeans arrived. Roughly 400'000 were brought to the United States. And we're not only from West Africa. There's a Kemetic Ankh in Mexico. Theres Ethiopian Olmec statue heads in South America. There's evidence we Africans spanned the GLOBE over 200'000 years ago. All of this info is coming out right now. We're the SAME PEOPLE. We have no strict guidelines. And we can care less what anyone related to us or not ate thousands of years ago. We'll eat fish today, pizza tomorrow, chicken the next day, steak the next. No pattern because we live in a FREE COUNTRY. You live life as you please.
