Is It Uncommon For Black People?
 

Ok so I am going to Japan (hopefully) with my school and I don't wanna go with just some weird kids from my school...so I asked my friend to go but she doesn't want to go because she's black and she said theres no black people in Japan! I mean is it really that uncommon for a black person to go to Japan? I really need someone I know and trust to be there with me because I would feel weird, but all my friends are black and don't care to see Japan like I do. IS IT REALLY THAT UNCOMMON FOR BLACK PEOPLE TO GO TO JAPAN?!?!

NO IT IS NOT D:

& there is already another thread like this that says so.

No i don't think so but I do seen in Japan on tbv show some people of black on ways I have my some friends are black who love Japan like I do. (I am white but some people tell me I look like of German yeah I am half german I have dark brown hairs look like black) I hope you get your friends try enjoy in there. ^^

What's It Called?!?
 

Do you know whats it's called? So I can go read it?!?!:confused:

Your friend is pretty naive. I'd suggest she not travel if she's going to be worried about something so trivial now a days.

Thanx Me 2!! I REALLY WANNA GO!!

U KNOW IF U SAID THAT TO HER FACE IT WOULD BE SO FUNNY!! Cuz thats what I told her (not in so many words) and she got mad.... and said she didn't want to go anyways (i guess it was supposed 2 hurt my feelings) LOL...but yea i still want her to go 2 it would make it 10x more fun!!

use the search bar..it should lead you to the thread. ^_^

i hope you find something to convince your friend to go..!!

you're welcome ^^ Yes I know you want go to Japan (<.< >.> I really love Japan i want move to there XDD) Well if your friends not want go with you what's you doing? =o

It's not uncommon, though. I'm black myself, and have had some family say things like, "Don't they hate black people over there?" or "Aren't they prejudiced against black people over there?" It's mostly older relatives though. I can see why they would question it. It's worse enough blacks are considered a minority in the US, but in places like Japan, we're minorities amongst minorities, so if anything, it's a fear issue. Despite what some might say, I would still like to go someday. I've had an interest in Japan way too much for far too long (like Asia in general as a traveling destination).

If my older cousin can live in Thailand, which I admire him for, I can live in or visit Japan. Race be damned! :p
