India is an interesting place. You have people in skin tone from very light to as dark as a sub-Saharan African (and who will still call a "black" person a "nigger" even though the Indian may be the far more dark-skinned one of the two!). As I once read in the writings of one Indian man, he said that the white man told the Indian what a "nigger" is. And as with many places around the world, the effects of colonialism yields a "white is right" attitude in many. Don't go outside of your own race . . . not unless you "improve" upon yourself and your race . . . by going with what's white. Because white is the best. White is right! All painfully uncomfortable to discuss . . . but the honest to goodness truth regarding the human psyche. This is how real people think and what real people do.
