@adivunsolicited: there's an inherent privilege that comes with being an American abroad, but being a black American we sometimes don't understand this bc we aren't privileged in our own country. when I lived in Brazil I realized I would never experience racism in the same way a black Brazilian would due to the power of my American dollar, where I was spending money and bc at the end of the day consumerism matters more than race. #BlackTikTok #brazil #brazilians #travelnoire #traveltok

Anybody who would deny that Brazil is racist is insane. They literally were the last country to end slavery in the western hemisphere, and one of the first countries to start slavery in the western hemisphere ... because of Latin America historical reverse one drop rule I feel like that's why Portugal and Spain starting the trans Atlantic slave trade gets downplayed and LA always gets seen as a racial utopia

It’s the same here in America immigrants with the accents get privileges or exceptions that regular black Americans wouldn’t get sometimes

The thing is, racism in Brazil is more structural and less explicit. Most people are afraid to directly say something racist. But they insinuate, deny rights, exclude, and everyone knows the reason, but it's not something spoken.

It’s like this the world over. Racists always prefer the “blacks from other places.” I experienced this as an African student in the US, I’ve witnessed it in Southern Africa and Europe where I’m from and have lived. It’s typical.

As a Black (Nigerian) American living in Brazil for over 3 years in south Brasil, it’s a very confusing experience. Because where I’m at, there are like four types of Black People I’ve encountered. Brazilian Blacks from Bahia (North), Angolan Blacks, Haitian Blacks, and Brazilian Blacks from the south. When I first moved here, I immediately clocked the body language of black people here. Head down, trying to stay small. Thought it was….interesting. Then there was the presumption of laziness from people from Bahia area. But the primary thing I clocked down here is people are far more ignorant or don’t understand racism or more importantly, Colorism. Because Brazilians are hyper mixed. So the African ancestry almost resides in a LARGE component of the country. So racism “can’t” be a thing. But there is a solid colorism problem, especially if you are not from the States. Brazilians still have insecurity of not being good enough to be European/USA-esque, but look down on African or other countries. It’s very complex here and I’m still learning and asking question. That being said, I love it down here. And my Lock hair self doesn’t deal with a lot of nonsense out here compared to the states. But, since my kids are born here, I have to be aware of the kids. And that reaction is interesting. It’s confusing, but not jarring. But that’s also comes with the American privilege.

I don’t know why we expect so much progressiveness from a country that hid war criminals from Germany.

I totally agree, as a black American I’ve benefited from being American in other countries the way non black Americans get treated better in America.

Experiencing American privilege outside of the US while being black is such an odd experience. I remember when I did a study abroad in China, how much better we were treated when they heard our American accent. Like night and day

I think the worst thing about places like Brazil and other Latin American countries is that they deny that racism exist at all. In America we do t shy away from the ugly discussion and realities of the racism we face in our country. Which I think is better than being gaslight and told it doesn’t exist at all which sounds like experience there.

my cousin likes to pretend he's American in touristic places just to see people's reaction. when they think he's not Brazilian, they immediately change how they approach him. Only works when he pretends to be American or European of course

This reminds me of how samba used to be too black, but jazz, also predominantly black, was classy cuz it was american. So samba only started to get respected with Bossa nova which mixed samba with jazz.

Here in Brazil, the worst form of racism is structural. We aren't the majority in positions of power or high-end jobs. Despite the Black population spending around R$3 billion, we have a few representation. I enjoy and consume a lot of Black American culture because, despite racism being horrible, African-Americans have a more visible place in American society.

When we travel as Americans a type of classism kicks in and our blackness for once in our lives takes a backseat to our Americanism. So racism slightly disappears for us because we are American when we travel

Same with Germany, they say they enjoyed and didnt see racism, while those who been living for decades are fed up of racism in Germany.
