I'm sorry, sincerely, for creating a new thread for this...

[Dr. Jones]

but I'm not sure within which existing thread it best fits..

Other than for very short stints I have always lived in America.
I do not deny there are racial inequalities and that, though much better than in the past, racism still permeates our society.

In America, I understand the basic stereotypes that perpetuate the racism.
Meaning, I understand how a black may stereotype a white, a white a black, Mexicans, American Indians, Muslims, etc.

I understand all from an American perspective.

What I would sincerely like to understand is the stereotyping of Western European Anglos against North Africans or let's just say Arabs. I understand there is a similar feeling of inequality between those two ^ as there is the black and white issue in America.

Is there anyone here that feels qualified to answer this?

I'd look for some European exposed posters like [MENTION=40]Siro[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1878]MVP[/MENTION] tbh. They'd have the best insight I'd think.

Anglos specifically or Western European whites in general? Racism in Europe is at least as bad as it is in the US, if not worse. European and American cultures are actually very similar, in comparison to non-Westerner cultures, and the stereotypes that exist in both places are comparable. Middle Easterners are often seen as backward, incompatible with European ideals, violent criminals and rapists who target white women, etc. Blacks in Europe face a lot of racism too.

They're not the same bro.

For your question I wish we had an English human being in here to talk with accent and use the word bloody ten thousand times a day because no one in the world understands how a British person perceives the world.

The underlying component to almost every societal fear is that they erode the sense of security that most of us long for.

LMAO ain't that the truth. I mentioned something about comedy to a Brit and he responded "THere is no comedy except British comedy".

They remind me of New Yorkers in a sense tho. The type that have seen it all, don't put up with ********, and only care for results.

North Africans are Arabs. As in, they are part of the Arab League, and they speak Arabic.

But I thought they are mixed ethnically.

Don't Arabs live in the Arabia? And it is a part of Asia.

Maybe I am confusing them with Spanish Arabs.

If you're using the ethnic definition for Arab, then yes. Only some people living in Arabia are ethnic Arabs. So 95% of people living in the Arab world would not meet that definition. But nobody outside of academia uses that definition. Using that definition, I'm not Arab. Neither are the Palestinians, Egyptians, Syrians, Iraqis, Tunisians, Moroccans, Algerians, Sudanese, Libyans, or the Lebanese.
