text: do you think there are differences between american blacks and foreign blacks? this question is for people of all races, not just blacks. and for people with actual experience, not people with hidden agenda. i just truly would like to know.      please note your own race, so that i can put your answer into perspective.      oh, and i'm not talking about physical differences. i am a caucasian born in the usa now living in another country.  i think there are major differences in blacks within the different regions of the usa. it is not possible to truly understand minority issues unless you are a minority, and if you are not from an oppressed race it is even harder to understand. comparing european blacks or asian blacks with an american black is not possible, in my opinion. i could come up with some demographic information, but i cannot ever describe the feelings of an american ethnic minority, and i certainly cannot compare southern usa blacks to egyptian blacks.  i find americans to be more verbal about the intolerance they display in their society. that does not necessarily mean other countries are more tolerant of minorities ; it means americans are very opinionated and unafraid to express how they feel.  i think there is worldwide racial/ethnic profiling. it has always existed. good luck on your study !
