To get to know if the Greeks are racists you have to ask the immigrants not the Greeks themselves.And then you have to ask the locals why you are prejudiced against a specific immigrant group ,so you can get a wider perspective on the matter.Sometimes both parties can be right

If they were racists then how do you explain thousands of men having married Phillipenese or even Japanese or German or French or even african. My 2 cousins have married an American the other German a good friend Japanese another philipenese and a third French. You should try living in Germany outside of big capital centres to small cities or in US to the northern Midwest and mideast states or in France in the country. They will never speak to you in English. They will demand to speak to them in fluent French. Try also living in the northern part of UK.

I told them no I am Pakistani, then the owner said you guys are okay, but went on a 20 minute tirade against Turks talking all the shit under the sky.

I moved to Athens from Manchester, England and after spending 6 months there and made a lot of Greek friends. I didn't feel any hostility for the most part, and I expected it since I was taking a job that a Greek person could have done. In England, its very different. We have a good economy and many jobs but yet get angry when other Europeans move here for work. At the core, I believe English are more racist than Greeks but only when it comes to nationalism and protecting jobs. In contrast, I believe that Greeks are very hospitable, kind people... but that the economic crisis is causing resentment towards foreigners who make their situation worse. This is understandable in my opinion. If England was to be in the same situation, we would have shameful far right groups terrorising the refugees, daily protests and constant riots. For example, one of the reasons we want to leave the EU is to control immigration. What I'm saying is, no Greeks aren't racist. They just can't handle any more instability and don't want to be dragged further down by immigration. Nevertheless, I still regularly witnessed kind, caring attitude towards refuges. On the metro I would see struggling locals offer money to middle-eastern beggars. I will always love and respect the Greek people for their kind hearts. Right now, I'm even learning the language and plan to move back to Athens in a couple of years. This shows how welcomed I felt in Greece

[@calinutzzz]

Now imagine that you moved to Athens from Vlorë, Albania and you are taking a job that a Greek person could have done. The lady at minute 1:20 described perfectly the situation. Unfortunately, in Balkan and Eastern Europe in general, the same is valid. I won't call it racism, because usually they do not know what racism means, I would call it lack of education, because they do not judge the person in front of them, but they judge their wallet. If they have more money than them, they offer respect and vice versa.

[@uboyraz]

Racism doesnt apply to better nations. A greek wont act racist againist to a german or american. But if you came from syria, algeria, india etc think twice

[@ΓιάννηςΧαρικαπολυς]

A Greek will not act racist like the Albanian or Turkish friend said earlier rather will act furiously when someone is ungrateful or tries to force his/her culture on him/her. They don’t look where you come from (at least most of them) but rather if you are a malakas (asshole). They don’t care where you are from they care if you are nice or bad that’s it.

I don’t care if I’m going to get downvoted, but there is clearly selection bias at play here. The people electing to be on camera will clearly represent a subset of the population with more liberal views or those who dispel racist tendencies. Who would agree to go on camera admitting the faults of the country/themselves to be posted on the internet? Doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist in a quiet street corner. I am a student studying Greek to fulfill a foreign language credit. In my Greek language class I am the only person of a particular background (it isn’t Greek, the actual background is irrelevant). The professor always singles me out, makes micro-aggressive comments to me about my country/region of origin, and then laughs about it. This encourages all the other students, the majority of whom are part of the Greek diaspora, and none of whom are part of my ethnic/racial background, to laugh along with him while I sit there feeling helpless. There couldn’t be a more hostile learning environment even if you wanted one. Plus the other students are rude, some glare at me, and some can’t even acknowledge me or treat me like I’m invisible. I have never met a more close minded group of people - in this particular class. Remember folks, if you don’t speak up when you see injustices happening around you, then you are also part of the problem.

[@Microaggressed]

I have enough wits about me to know not to group everyone together and perhaps I just got a bunch of bad apples, HOWEVER, one day someone from outside the community might encounter people behaving in the way my class does, and the sentiment won’t be as forgiving. There is the serious potential for the entire reputation of the people and culture to be tarnished in someone’s mind. I will continue to have an open mind as much as possible, but in all honesty, that luxury was never afforded to me from my country’s Greek diaspora community.

Terribly biased video i sadly have to say i believe that the 3.56 part is disgenuous and just simply pushing his views & open borders agenda through some friend of his. Advocating for mass immigration & claiming multiculturalism as a priori positive feeds more racism , populism and harms social cohesion , its an irresponsible position that denies current realities and harms the legal migrants of this country who by all means enrich our experience and lifes in Greece. Also where's the limit to immigration ? Is Greece gonna be the global camp of poor people in this planet ? Greece has already challenges to integrate the Roma communities , the recent waves of Muslims migrants (extremely hard to integrate) and a neighbour (Turkey) that recently used masses of its migrant population to destabilize Greece and European Union in our land borders in Evros. GR also has a majority (60%) population of 'migrants' in its prisons throughout its country , this is unreasonably high if we take into account their general minor population and raises questions on the quality of immigration that we receive (islamic,ultraconservative,unskilled) and the fact that Greece doesn't have the resources to host and provide decent living conditions to all migrants (which we are not obliged to do so ofcourse).

For all those that say the women in the denim jacket is “speaking the truth” because she strongly claims racism is not about colour, ethnicity, culture, mother tongue, it’s about class, then she is a huge psychopath and a pathological liar and world master oppressed and manipulator as the one uses “class” as a false excuse of not being racist is the main one by being racist by Ignoring the fact racism comes from pride not fear. The concept, of I’m better than you because I am greek or because I have a white European skin complexion, and so on is being racist to that specific individuals financial statutes by not fully saying it but, between the lines, the majority of the Greek racist population that reside in their homelands and over the global are saying, “hey, because you come from the ethnicity and you don’t have what we financially and economically have, then your less than us due to your country’s economic and financial status that you needed to come seek refugee and our assistance from us”. Now, in gods book, the loud and Crystal clear spells out RACISM in his book. Greeks are more than definitely beyond racist, they are with all honest walking and living terroristic demons that desperately try to act like their Caucasian when we all know they’re not, cuz their not Caucasian by blood , heads full of ignorance and stupidity to the max, and a very satanic black filthy heart full of pork and wine. They call themselves religious orthodox when they don’t even act like it nor do they follow Christ teachings. Even pure original Arab orthodox, Catholics, and christians can do wait better than that. Come learn from us Arabs because we teach life how to be life, period. May the creator descend on any racist human being, especially the Greeks and may he make all you lives a living hell in this life and the hereafter, ameen. What comes around goes around and for anybody else reading this , a quick advice and a heads up, to know if someone has a closed-mind brain and is extremely stupid, check to see if their racist or demonstrate any type of racism in their body language, tone, and speech. Greek people need to shake up and wake up before the creator wakes all of you guys up cuz even the Caucasians that originally come from England and that reside in America, Canada, and Australia hate every Greek person and they treat them with a lot of racism.

The way that refugees are looked upon and talked about, and a lot of “gypsies,” the way they live separately and are avoided by Greeks like the plague. Little “jokes” here and there about them and how they live. I see Greeks talk shit in greek in front of people who look different or who think won’t understand them.

[@mydogsbutler]

You may be partially Greek by blood but are lacking a Greek identity so are not Greek. You an American leftist and one racist towards actual Greeks. What you call "racism" is actually distrust of foreigners... like yourself. Part of the reason for this is the mass violation of Greece's borders. A secondary reason is a reaction to how nearly the entirely planet behaves racist towards Greeks. After mocking Greeks for refusing to recognize the former Yugoslavians as "Macedonians", nearly everyone pretends not to notice their irredentism and bizarre attempts to steal our historian and identity. Addendum: supermavros6072 has been troling the tread ranting about Greeks like you have. He, like a couple of other trolls here, pretended to be Greek but if you google his handle turns out he spends a lot of time ranting about Greeks on Turkish websites.

I can’t really speak for most Greeks as I’m a Greek American but judging by yt comments it seems like Greeks on average hate Turks more than Turks hate Greeks. Greek people obviously want their capital city back more than anything but I don’t think they want to evict innocent Turks from their homes, businesses, etc. in the process. Sometimes I wonder what would happen if the Turkish government became secular and left winged again and generously decided to only give the small part of Istanbul that was Constantinople back to Greece in some sort of exchange. I’m pretty sure that would make Greek people extremely happy and Turkey would become a brother to Greece. On the other hand I have no idea how crazy this sounds from a Turkish perspective

Our government tries to compensate by giving them tens of thousands of dollars when they turn 18 as well as free scholarships, full citizenship, etc. but we will never be able to fully make up for it.

Not many people know this but this is the actual United States: www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/comments/2q3y9o/contiguous_united_states_minus_indian/ That’s what I’m wondering about with Turkey. Not that they give back all of Anatolia of course. Just a tiny piece of it like the US did to the natives. As for the Greek people, don’t let the bigoted internet trolls speak for Greece. Most are reasonable and know that Turkish people aren’t to blame for their government’s actions. My grandfather for example was born in Istanbul and his family was harassed so bad that his parents shipped him away to Greece. He gets very sad when he thinks about his home city and has an enormous hatred for the Turkish government but even he doesn’t blame the Turkish people. The vast majority of Greeks know that ones morals has nothing to do with their ethnicity. Sure the Greeks want western Anatolia but every realist knows that’ll never happen. What they’re really proud of is Constantinople and if Turkey generously gave that back to them I genuinely feel the Greeks would love them for it. I know my Greek side of the family would.

To me, the problem lies in the issue presented by the pair of Albanian gentleman after the 7th minute mark. “We didn’t come here to be Greek. “We just came here to work.” While such a position is understandable enough, it is also understandable why a people would want immigrants to “be like them”. An individual who wants to be Greek and has a passion for Greek culture is an asset. Someone who only cares about how he can benefit from the society and doesn’t want to be a part of it, can be seen as a threat. I wonder how Albanians would react to the establishment of a “Greek community” in Albania? While racism is certainly a problem, its also natural reaction to the rapid increase of non-integrating people and the societal divides it creates.

[@ricardomatos2686]

What's the problem with an Albanian community and a Greek community?

[@costasmegas]

Ricardo Matos Vieira Theres no problem at all. Did you not read my full comment? My point is that when immigration results in successful assimilation as then it should appear less threatening. When immigration fails to do so, it can establish two (or more) separate communities competing for the same space. When someone loves your culture and wants to be “ be a part of it “ you will eventually become one new community. That’s how it should work. Of course it also has to do with the attitudes of the migrants and hosts, their similarities/differences, socioeconomic factors, immigrant criminality, as well as the rate of migration. If something goes wrong with any of the above, the perception of threat is also greater. But those are separate points.

Greeks are generally nationalists (not necessarily by the meaning of "ultra-nationalism" that is used today, I would call them "patriots"). But not racists.

A Greek would respect a normal Muslim, a cheerful and honest Albanian, an educated Romani, etc. And at the same time they will hate a Muslim who insults our own culture, an Albanian who believes in Greater Albania (popular Albanian irredintistic idea) or who looks for ways to steal, the Romani who parasitize in our society.

most of us Greeks are not racist in the slightest but in all honesty there are a few reasons for us to be frustrated with foreigners. 1) the countless people that immigrate in our nation from south-east. not that we don't try to help or that we don't care about them of course,but most of them want to go further inside Europe and our northern neighbors don't allow them to enter while we get more and more of them, and the rest of the EU is doing nothing. (no seriously if i'm to speak in all honestly i would throw a dozen curses to the EU.) 2) the corona virus. we don't care how it was made and it dose not matter. but when people know they have it,they are checked for it and still want to enter in our nation what is there for us left to say??? 3) turkey. i have nothing against Turkish people in particular as a culture or anything,what happen in the past belongs in the past...but. when your planes enter our airspace once a day and so do your ships in our sea and to all that you say is that we "are just worsening our relationship",well..........kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnuzdJ2ngZmYd5I. basically we have nothing against other races,cultures e.t.c. and we can be most friendly. but we can only take so much and these things we take are like an ammunition for the few who are racist.

[@EasyGreekVideos]

Would it have been racist if the question had been "are Greeks hospitable"? Surely we can't make a point about the whole Greek nation just from a handful of answers either way, right?. But still: people have specific perceptions about their own people on the one hand and other peoples on the other. Variety is self-explanatory within the group (which makes the question sound racist), but other groups are usually set apart by a single trait and a generalized remark or stereotype (e.g. Albanians, Germans, Americans, Pakistani people etc are all, more or less, a specific way)

[@EasyGreekVideos]

Well, my personal opinion about all this is that you can never generalize about any group of people by having had an experience with only a handful of them -- either good or bad. If we said "Greeks are fantastic and hospitable", would that apply to all of us? It would still be a generalization, and no better at describing the "truth". On the other hand, stereotypes do exist, and they do say in every stereotype there is a grain of truth (we've made another episode about what Greeks think stereotypes about Greeks are). I'd been hearing the stereotype that Greeks were racist by different people, but also hearing about racist actions by some Greek people in the news (I think the incident that gave me the thought was the attack against the Iranian schoolboy), and thus was inspired to make this episode to ask more people what they thought about this and start a conversation.

Greeks aren't racist to tourists, because their entire economy is based on tourism. But they're racist towards immigrants and people who are from other countries and live in Greece (of course not all Greeks, but quite a few imo).

Very interesting episode

[@mariaangela_]

Έχω ζήσει σε πολλές βαλκανικές χώρες. Στην Ελλάδα ζω εδώ και 2 χρόνια. Έχω εντοπίσει μόνο ένα φαινόμενο ρατσισμού στο σχολείο μου. Το ένα αυτό άτομο δεν με κάνει να κρινω και 9.999.999 άλλους εκατομμύριους Ελληνες. Με έχουν αποδεχτεί από την 1η μέρα οι συμμαθητές μου οι γείτονες μου οι πλέον συμπολίτες μου με πολύ αγάπη και δεν υπάρχει κάποιος να μην σου λέει καλημέρα αν και η Αθήνα είναι πολύ μεγάλη πόλη. Έχω ζήσει για μερικά χρόνια και στην Αλβανία. Τρομοκρατημένη όταν πήγα νόμιζα ότι θα με σκότωναν όπου να ναι. Δεν έχω βάλει χέρι στο τσέπη μου για 6 ολόκληρους μήνες.Και ας ήξεραν ότι ήμουν Ελληνίδα. Κροατία επίσης έχω επιδεχτει πλήρη αποδοχή. Έτρωγα μεσημεριανό κάθε σαββατοκύριακο με τους γείτονες μου. Μπερδεύουν οι Ευρωπαίοι τον όρο ρατσισμό με τον όρο του εθνικισμού. Και δεν είναι επιθετικός ο εθνικισμός στα Βαλκάνια. Έχουν λαχτάρα για τους πολιτισμούς τους για τις ξεχωριστές γλώσσες τους και ιστορίες που ανήκουν μέχρι χιλιάδες αιώνες από την γέννηση του Χριστού. Δεν είναι Ινδό ευρωπαϊκές γλώσσες έχουν ξεχωρίστες ριζες και αυτές στο κόσμο είναι μόνο 3, τα ελληνικά τα αλβανικά και η αρμένικη γλώσσα. Αλλά αυτά τα αξιολάτρευτα σημεία των κρατών αυτών δεν τα παρατηρούν οι Ευρωπαίοι όταν έχουμε λόγο για εξουσία. Θέλουν να χουν όλη την προσοχή πάνω τους. Που πάντα το μόνο πράγμα που κάνουν είναι να κινούν πολέμους και οικονομικές κρίσεις. Και τα μιδια τα ίδια. Ξέρετε όλοι πολύ καλά για τι λένε. Αλλά να σας πω κάτι, παλι έχουμε δει Έλληνες να αγκαλιάζουν Τούρκους και Αλβανούς να αγκαλιάζουν Σέρβους. Ας πιουν μόνη τους όλο αυτό το δηλητήριο οι παραγωγοί του μίσους. Ας μάθουν να γίνουν άνθρωποι.

I never heard of people having problems with brown skin, as a matter of fact most people in Greece found it sexy, especially at the urban centres 50% of the marriages are between Greek and foreign people... it's also very common for Greeks at summer to get darker skin tones like the one of yours and it's never been noted as something negative on the contrary it's just in our DNA too being Mediterranean people, I mean my father was born blond with green eyes and by the time he passed away he had a Skin tone close to the arab or Latin American people, an other example is my wife, she is half Egyptian half Greek and honestly no one from the family ever gave her a strange look on the contrary they found her gorgeous So your experience sounds very strange to me, basically it reminds me stories my parents used to say to me about the 70s and the 80s..

Depends on which Greek you meet, how you move to Greece, and how you yourself treat Greeks. - A tiny minority of Greeks are racists. - The majority are hostile to migrants that violate Greek borders but not because they are racist. It's because they don't appreciate them disrespecting Greece's sovereignty (which most people in most countries don't like so it's not just a Greek thing). - The majority of Greeks are friendly to those that are in Greece via legal immigration processes (including Turks). They differentiate between political issues with say Erdogan and individual Turks who are each unique people (that can be either good or bad just like Greeks)
