On the other hand I think he’s lucky. He has enough media coverage and people know him. He is under the watchful eyes of many. Anyone else that was in the exact same situation as him without the media making it a big deal like this, would not have made it back. When someone uses his example, all I can think is, you can’t expect people to be lucky as he was.

All my friends that have been to Europe said the racism there is worse than US, because people in US are at least not racist to your face, (or maybe there’s more diversity here and people live in bubbles, this could be significant reason that my friends didn’t think of; they mostly interact with international people).

Most of the time when I hear and see a country being great about society and such, it seems to be great for their own citizens. Which is understandable. But that means we don’t really have much choice of other countries accepting us (I’m brown and have an accent so I can’t fit in in Europe).
