You shouldn't let things like this stop you from doing what u wanna do.
You can honestly say that you weren't the tiniest bit curious as to how blacks are treated in other countries where they're like the minority minority? It won't stop me from wanting to travel, but I still can't help but be curious about it, or how we could be possibly perceived there.

It's like my Osakan friend. We were talking about stereotypes, and she said, in Japan, seems that they all expect black women to look like Beyonce and for black guys to be either rappers or athletes.
