You mean Bajan, as in from Barbados Sock? I agree. Been there a few times and worked with a white Bajan. It's similar to the UK in class structure, elites etc.

Yes, Barbados (I used to say Barbadian and they let me get away with it, while giggling at me for a while).

They say their poor are well looked after, just like in the UK, the tourist money trickles to the bottom. No slums, etc. But they complain of a Haitian problem and illegal immigration.

Did your colleague complain of any overt racism? Is it bad there?

It's more class + race in Barbados. There is a black elite and a white elite. They mix well but it's like Oxford and Cambridge if you know what I mean. People not born in Barbados, well, if they 'aint super rich they are just foreign, black or white.

Medellin, Colombia, Languedoc-Roussillon, France. Descisions, descisions. That's a tough one.

Just the thought of andy as an immigrant makes me laugh.

They called Rihanna whitey? I thought dummy would have been the more obvious nickname.

The one of the things I like this forum is it's unpredictable way. We began from places for retired people and ended with racism.

Well no, I'd be an ex-pat. The only place I could see immigrating to is Australia, and I'm too old, they wouldn't take me.

'kay now, I thought white racism was whites being racist. In fact I thought only whites can be racist. These poor people of color are just reacting to years of exploitation, first by the colonials, then by these neo-colonial tourist flashing their wealth around every where.

Racism runs in everyones blood....best thing to do is hate everyone equally....or best yet just hate humans, works for me.
