Black Solo Traveler, have you ever been gently excluded abroad?
I was going to say gently Jim Crowed but I think excluded would be better. Please, share your experience. Share that moment when you were abroad and it dawned on you that that nice European man's on WHYY reviews and advice wasn't wholly inclusive. Or when you realized first hand that that insanely enthusiastic White YouTuber living it up in Asia might have left some things out.
I've had plenty of warm and fun experiences abroad. I've had some pretty painful experiences traveling abroad. This is not about anger or having a pitty party. I just would like others like me to share their experience and compare notes.
I absolutely would love to hear about times when your race afforded you preferential treatment as well! (This would be pretty encouraging to others.)
Please, be sure to include the country;month and year you went; whether or not their was a language barrier; how long your stay was; what type of tourist you are (ecotourist, gastro, etc.); what went write or wrong and why you think it you were stonewalled; and how old you were when you went.
Is there a chance that you were getting excluded from a venue or accommodation because of other factors? Such as nationality or language barrier.
Black expats are welcome to comment but I'm mainly looking for input from others who have short visits of 3 months or less.
