  1.  @IRINEU918  Salvador, Bahia, is the region i became familiar with because my aunt married a Brazilian and we now have a place to stay. But my first time there , i stayed a Hotel. Salvador is the most glaring case of very overt racism and very old school colonial selection and placement. and this is on top of it being full of smoke screens. Hotels are the most visible example of this. Front desk it is the white girls and occasionally a mixed girl for "seasoning". Dame de Chambres, all of them are overworked Black ladies with darker skin. same with gardeners , morning porters et.. literally all the demanding physical work with risk of potential injuries is done by Black people and all the local whites are just there for everything that isn't menial. Our tour guides, a few were mixed but their leads were all local white dudes. It was maaaaad uncomfortable and i felt terrible when a bloke i travelled with remarked that the set up reminded him of the painting a redenção de Cam . As a mixed guy myself just be around so much tolerated cyclical violence was disheartening. so to me a tourist being randomly rude to a local Black person , you guys really think that person is going to report when most Black youth are barred from Hotel fronts and "private beaches" because i have seen enough professional Black Bahians being randomly frisked all in the 10 days i spent there .

  8. to be fair, whites in general ( irish included y'all are doing the most too ) DO NOT like the world "immigrants" applied to them. hence the stylish "ex-pat". and "settlers" . it screams "we are not like those brown and black people over there". even though economic immigration i usually the reason people emigrate. My dad is white and during lockdown i actually overheard him refer to himself as "expat". eventually i had to let him know , but like how can you be an expat when you've raised a whole family outside your own country and your grand kids are not even from your home country. This is pervasive because i have heard of white quebeckers refer to themselves as "Canadiens de souche" too. They dont even process it , how bizarre that sounds. As if they are Chippewa or oJibway
