My Experience with Racism in Germany

[@biggiedii4889]

I'm poc (person of color) Australian and faced more racism in my 2 years in Germany than my entire life in Australia, it got so bad being an inter racial couple my gf and I moved back to Australia. Everyone loves to point fingers at Australia for being racist but Australians are more accepting of racial differences than a lot of Europeans.

I’ve been living in Germany. And the German Staredown is extremely uncomfortable and stresses me out. I live in a small town, but it doesn’t get any better in bigger cities either. I’m constantly conscious about the stares and it annoys me more when they talk about me right in front of me. My German boyfriend did not understand that this is even a thing (now does!) Now I’ve learned to overcome this. ‘When in Rome be a Roman’ so I participate in the stare down these days until they are tired to staring at me.

I kinda agree. I have lived in the US for several years and now in Germany. I think the 'German Stare' is a much debated topic among expats, but it is mostly out of curiosity. I live in a very international city in Germany, and I love visiting the beautiful small cities where sometimes people do stare, but when I talk to them they are very friendly, especially when you talk to them in German. Overall in my personal experience, the German people are more friendly towards immigrants than in the US.

[@glokta1]

Interesting. I always had the view that because Europe historically hasn't had that much immigration they have more negative attitudes compared to the US where immigration in the 20th century, largely did away with those fears

I have lived in both countries and my experience is quite the opposite. Might be due to the fact that I don't speak German but I did my high school and undergrad in the US so I was well integrated. Ger,mans are quite friendly but it takes a while for them to really open up to you.

I was borned and raised in Germany. White, blond, girl, no problems of course, always thought Germans might look at foreigners or need some time to get used someonen they consider different but I never ever thought they would be hostile. One experience I had in a McDonalds in Kiel changed everything. I was standing in line behind a bunch of guys, obviously non Germans, I pressume refugees, speaking a foreigner language, broken english with the guy at the counter. In the line next to us were two or three men, obviously german, not very healthy looking, I pressume alcohol. One man of them was turned towards our line was talking mostly to himself first but than directly looked at one of the guys in front of me and said something (in german):"Yeah, we know what you are doing here. You come here for the money we worked hard for and we make you able to afford McDonald's food without you doing anything." He said it in such a hostile way I had never experienced before someone speaking too me. I saw one of the guys faces in front of me and he didn't look scared or angry but like this was nothing new. The worst things was: NO ONE including me spoke up. I was shocked but that is no excuse. I am sorry about this til today. I should have said something and bought them some extra McFlurry or something. I will do better in the future. Just felt I needed to share this.

The gypsies left India about 1000 years ago. They were forced to do so during the invasions by people like Mahmud of Ghazni, ghori, etc. A lot of them were taken as slaves to the middle Eastern slave markets as well. The Hindukush mountains got it's name because these gypsies ("romani" people) who were being taken as slaves were dying when they were taken across the mountains. Hindukush means Hindu Killer. Quite horrifying history. Even now, there's so much racism against Romani people and they're not being able to lift themselves back up at all.

I'm from Jamaica, living in Frankfurter. I can honestly say, i have faced racism. Whether at work, on public transportation or even in my own home. Everyone who is not a white German, faces racism. However black people such as Africans and African decendants, face the worse of it. Racism here in Germany is very difficult to spot because they do is so well. For example. I was on a bus, while living in Gießen. I was the only sitting where elders and disable folks should sit. I saw an elderly woman enter the bus, i immediately got up and went to another seat that was empty so that she could have her designated seat without any impediment. The old lady walked past the designated seat, and went to go sit beside another white German. There were other seats beside other people of colour. Many times I am on the train and the only one sitting in a row of seats while the rest of the seats are full. No one white sits in the row I am in. They go and stand or continue walking, looking for another seat. People of colour have no issue sitting next to or infront me. So I have started to actively sit beside or infront white Germans because I know how badly they don't want to.

[@mareksykora779]

@@3r8y8cKHdfkwei89 As a white man from an eastern europen country which did not have any colony (Czech republic) I have friends in Germany and I would say they don't care of anything from the colonies. Actually they see it the opposite way. I.e. that your countries got much more from the colonization than them. They organized your countries so you don't fight in neverending tribal wars as you did before colonization, speaking hundred different languages. They organized your society, they introduced industry, better agriculture, schools, education, democracy. So actually they still see you as not developed countries which have a big problem to keep the society on the level they introduced there. The colonization helped your countries much.

[@lightup6751]

The irony is that you are prejudiced yourself by judging all Germans by your individual few experiences. This way it will never end.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I have family in Germany through my father and I really appreciate your kind words. Germany today sometimes does not get the credit it deserves. My cousins husband was from Turkey. People have come from Turkey to work in Germany since the 19th century. Many Polish people now live in and have helped revitalize the border towns after the post wall exodus of people in the early nineties. I was recently in a smaller town in Saxony and there were some, long established, thriving multi ethnic businesses. I will note that making an effort to learn the language goes a long way. I’m getting a small apartment in Saxony, near my family as it’s affordable for Germany. I would also gladly spend summers in the Czech Republic. The Hungarian and Romanian people are wonderful, but would not feel safe living there right now. My experience in Norway and Denmark was positive, but it’s actually much easier to move to Denmark to than Norway as Norway has not joined the EU. Even a spouse of a citizen of Norway must find a job for residency. Denmark is a small country, with a strong social welfare system, far more social equality and less poverty than the US. The fact that they don’t want to radically change their society to suit the needs of a wave of migrant people ultimately is their decision.

[@yurigansmith]

Whether racist discrimination takes place and is also _perceived_ as what it is, depends on so many factors. One aspect is especially important in my opinion, namely the question whether the discriminating person expects to get away with it, which to a large part depends on how the potential victim is perceived in terms of the social hierarchy. According to my experience, people who claim that there's basically no problem with racism in Germany, tend to be from higher socio-economic classes, like well-educated expats or exchange students or just tourists travelling through Europe for a couple of months. On the other hand, people who seem to experience racism nearly on a daily basis are often from lower socio-economic classes, starting with discrimination in the educational system, later on in many different aspects of life, like e.g. employment discrimination, workplace bullying, difficulties to find an appartment, bad treatment by authorities, etc. etc. etc. - all these things that more privileged people like for example the Ph.D. from India working at Max Planck Institute will never or at least to a much lesser extent have to face on a regular basis.

[@yurigansmith]

To put it short: Racist discrimination often manifests in already existing hierarchies, where the instrumentalization of the power gap makes it easy for the aggressor to get away with it. These hierarchies can be manifold (wealth, level of education, health & physical attractiveness), but often times they're of socio-economic nature. If you don't perceive much racism, it's not that unlikely that your life is in general rather on the sunny side.

[@bilalhamurabi3362]

I dont think this is true. I and many other doctors have faced racism. But it really depends. If you look western european you might not experience any racism at all. But if youre black or muslim it will be extreme.

[@tinachristine4573]

​@bilalhamurabi3362 as a doctor, I am sort of protected from racist behaviour. I feel acknowledged and respected and even appreciated in that capacity . As soon as I step outside that role, and I'm just a member of society, I instantly feel just tolerated. It is getting better with time, attitudes are rapidly changing especially in Britain. Having a prime minister of colour has been a huge boon. The BLM protests also created much needed education and conversations around everyday racism. I think we should continue to engage positively in discussions around race and discrimination without fear.

Like they have Darjeeling as a part of their state where nepali people lives yet they don't even know about it. They act like they in a shock state when I say I'm from India north east and I fk hate it when they call me chunki Or Chinese like seriously they take it as a joke when they call me Chinese and all seriously nepal is closer to us than china yet they call us Chinese this and that some people don't even know what's racism is. I am not saying every one I racist overall I want to say when a Indian is getting hate or faces racism in other countries they be like why do they do that we don't do to they like that but they don't know that they do racism to their own fellow country people . So I'm stand with u that u faced racism in other county but i guess first we need to fix our own country then we can point on others

Thank you for the video :-) just one little reminder - the word gipsy/gypsy is considered a racial slur by most, similarly to the "n-word". The term that is used without being pejorative is Roma or Romani people. They live in every European country and have arrived in Europe from India (most probably from the Punjab region) more than 500 years ago. The Roma language (there are of course dialects) still has many similarities with Hindi.

[@koolar1528]

Yes because they all belong to Indo european language.

[@IEnattI]

@@koolar1528 No, that is not true. While languages like German, Czech, Slovak, Polish etc. are in the Indo-European group of languages, they sound completely differently. Unless they are in a closer group together (like Slavic languages for example), speaker of one language would not be able to understand the other. Even though they lived next to each other for centuries. However, Hindi (or Urdu for that matter) and Roma have so many similarities, that with some effort one can understand the other, because huge chunks of the vocabulary are the same, grammar is similar etc. That is similar to Slovaks and Czechs bein able to speak with people in Poland, even though they are from different countries. German, Slovak, Czech, Polish, Hungarian or any other European speaker will not be able to understand a Roma person speaking their language.

Yes, Slavic languages do belong to Indo European Languages, but speaker of a Slavic language subgroup would not understand a speaker from other subgroups - for example Germans. Similarly Indians speaking Hindi do not even understand all other official languages in India (even the Indo European ones). But similarity of the Roma language was noticed by linguists already in the 18. century. Lastly, please do not use the g-word, it is a racial slur and it is quite ironic that somebody is using it in a discussion under a video about experiences of racism.

Visiting a country is very different from living in one; especially in Germany. Germany has a very high level of racism; especially towards black immigrants. The reason why most people don't see or notice this is just because there's no form of xenophobia. The most immigrant-friendly country in Europe, in my opinion, is Finland. What you said about residency is not absolutely correct. It's not that easy to get a permanent residency or citizenship in Germany, it takes at least 8 years except if you get married to a German. Jobs are not easy to get for black foreigners, especially those in a special field like Environmental Science, and Germans tend to hide their racism under the camouflage of Language. I would always advise fellow black immigrants to consider countries like the UK, USA and Canada before Germany; at least in those countries, you have an idea of what you're dealing with or what you'll face. There is a lot of hypocrisy in Germany

[@AP-lc5ys]

Please explain the racism camouflaged by language thing. And how "racism but no xenophobism" works.

[@badadamilola9534]

@@AP-lc5ys What I mean by Xenophobia is the public display of hatred towards immigrants, foreigners or people of colour. This goes as far as public assault, humiliation and even execution of the concerned fellows, just like what happened in South Africa and even in the USA, with the public killing of black people by public officers (Black Lives Matter). As of today, there is no such incidence, at least not on a wide scale as in the USA, in Germany. That's why many people think less of racism in Germany. For the fact that Germans don't express this hatred publicly (to a large extent), doesn't mean they're not racist. You will begin to understand the magnitude of racism present in this country as soon as you have something to do with the government, or need some paperwork or even get a job. My statement about racism being camouflaged under the flag of language is mainly centered around my personal experience searching for jobs for over 3 years in Germany. Take for example, German is the only country I know so far that requires an applicant to submit a resume with a photograph (correct me if I'm wrong). Now, ask - why is that so? It's because they judge you right away by what you look like and when you have enough courage to ask why your application was not concerned; even if you're qualified for the position, they will tell you it's because your language proficiency is not high enough for that position or for the company (which is most times; just the polite way of telling you "F**K Off". The truth is Germans don't like foreigners to be in a high position or a position of power/authorithy, that's why most foreigners are working shitty jobs; except for some few lucky ones. (please correct me if I'm wrong, perhaps I'm just seeing it from a wrong perspective.)

One day, her friends showed her the cops who harassed him, they were having lunch outside enjoying their time. The french girl wanted to talk to them but realized there was no point doing so (the cops were in group) as how can they prove anything? She decided to apply for a job at that restaurant and event got it after 5 to six months…. You know what she did? One of the racist moron always ordered French onion soup and the other one usually orders beer. Well… each time those morons do, she would add her own “mouth-made biological champagne”’into the soup and into the beer…. Each day she worked and each day she managed to get those morons as her customers. She even added some stomach med and made one of them go to the loo 2 or 3 times, but avoided to make it frequent as it would be too flagrant at the end. All the comments posted here made me smile because some think that one must always obey and be subdued even if it is not justified. I would say … and May be it is because I am French (and not North American like many of you) … that those MORONS may have tasers, power, strength… but as we Cana Lao have our own way, like “champagning” their food. Another girl I knew took pictures of those who mess up with her sister for example and “repaired” those pics by putting a prostitute next to the moron. She would then send the pic to the moron’s wife. By the way, it also shows that most cops are not smart - if they were, they would have been engineers or architects!

I'm a Latino that's also on paler side of the spectrum so at times I'm confused with southern Spaniard. Still, after living in the US for several months, I can say that there is at least more acceptance of inmigrants there than in Germany.

Yup. I'm a Hispanic American and pretty damn pale as well and I have European facial features but I have curly hair so they might think I'm North African or something in Europe idk lol. I never had a racist incident here in America. That's why I get so annoyed when Europeans talk crap about Americans when they're probably worse.

[@Simon-sw4ov]

Native speaker here. I believe on this level it is possible though I think you shouldn’t expect it to be easy. You‘ll probably have a harder time in the beginning as you‘ll have to get used to the spoken language. I am sure however that you will be able to follow lectures a lot better after a few months depending on how much energy you put into understanding the language. That’s just my opinion though. I would love to hear what your experience was should you have gone ahead with it anyway :) sending love from Germany

[@Simon-sw4ov]

[@ajayanand786]

@@Simon-sw4ov Sir how much time does it takes to learn german language fluently ?

[@Simon-sw4ov]

@@ajayanand786 Speaking fluently is hard to say. It would depend on what fluent means to you. Factors would be how similar your mother tongue is to German in the way it’s sounds are orally formed for example. But also your general language learning proficiency and how much you surround yourself with German speakers but also force yourself to speak the language no matter how good it sounds. To answer I‘d say between 3-10 years. 3 years would be if you’re really trying the absolute hardest and have good circumstances. Then again I‘m a native speaker and have a limited perspective. The people who can answer this best would probably be the ones who‘ve actually had to learn it as a foreign language. What I would like to say about German in general: I think German is a language where the entry may be harder than English for example due to its grammar rules. Later on it will probably become exponentially easier compared to to other languages because it lets you make more use of compound knowledge. This is due to the fact that it tends to recycle words and not form new ones for everything. One example would be „Autobahn“. It has the words „Auto“ (car) and „Bahn“ (track). If you don’t know the word „Autobahn“ itself it would thus be easier for you to understand the meaning. The english equivalent „highway“ would then be „car track“. In this sense German words tend to be more literal in the way they describe things which allows for easier understanding. But this what applies to the vocabulary. Grammar as I‘ve said can be more challenging especially when compared to other languages. I hope my answer was somewhat useful to you. In any case I recommend checking with what other people have to say about it too though. Best of luck to you! :)
