let me ask u a question DWILDROSE b4 u came into existence here on earth,did u know d nation u were abt to appear??b4 ur parents even met let alone when they started planning giving birth to u did u know??u grew up and found urself where u are,so u can't tell me that those of us that found themselves in d worst place on earth r not humans,they are 100% just that they found themselves where they are,so instead of u hating them or trying to humiliate them in any way u better pity them if u cannot be able to contribute 4 their betterment.

i strongly believe that in d black race no one is naturally a racist,99.9% of blacks who r racist were induced into it by the white counterparts.The whites makes u a racist when u mix up them here in Europe or America but when they come to Africa the treatment they get,most of them never believed it.I think d problem is from their great grand fathers cos even in school they never teach d young one anything good about d black race,instead they r making them to hate right from their childhood,while we r discussing this issue here,i saw some whites girls writing about racism,have u seen any white man writing it??FIIFY what d teacher taught ur daughter and her class mates is common here in Poland to be precise where they teach children that black people lives in the tree inside d forest in Africa.

if i may contribute,me as a nigerian when i meet someone from any part of the world 4 d 1st time i normally sees d person as my fellow human even though i might not like his/her ways of life as regards to religion or what so ever but the problem with whites is that when they see u as a black man from Nigeria,they r not bothered if u r from Nigeria or any other country in africa but 4 them d fact remains that u r from Africa where people lives in the trees,sometimes i dnt blame them cos TV presenters and journalists never tell or show them the good side of Africa.Here in europe alot of people eats from the dust bin but i've not 4 one day seen d so called newscasters show this but......................infact till date i still ask myself what d black race has done to whites to deserve all these????when they want to interview people for example on global issues they go to capital cities to ask question but once they go into africa they will enter into a deep primitive village in one african country to interview people,some scenes me as an african have never seen in my life b4.

Kate_L not only latvia,or litva and so on.Polish is also the same!!!
