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.

Yeah I remember a few years ago seeing a viral video of a dark guyanese indian woman screaming at a woman and calling her a "dirty and uneducated nigger" they were apparently at a bus stop and 2 of the Guyanese womans friends are just sitting there smiling and chuckling while the black woman who is about the same skin tone as her is screaming back telling her that she just keeps repeating the same thing like and ignorant dummy and how she needs to switch up her insults. She even turns to the guy filming it all and tells him how the woman is in the wrong but refuses to admit it ( i forget what the argument was even about)
But i do also remember a situation with the same girl I used to go to the motel with. Her friend was a very light white skinned tone of indian like I eventually met her family and you would think she was adopted because she is the only one who didnt have that tanned complexion. Anyways I remember she had broken up with her boyfriend (same race) and she was crying and i was trying to console her while letting her know i was interested and we became friends but she never even considered giving me a chance. Her friend (the one i hooked up with) told me that she didnt think I was worth her time and i was out of her league, not the right color, etc. Ended up getting her something for her graduation celebration that she was asking me for jokingly for months, it was quite "pricey" as some would say. Then all of a sudden its like "oh he has money, let me talk to him now"
We stayed friends to this day, she's married now with a kid but after her friend told me how she looked down on me cuz I was black and it was like while we were friends she just always looked down on me based on my skin color. I found it interesting to say the lease because we would have these really deep conversations about politics, the economy, etc. I felt like we were equals but it was an eye opening experience
