What’s it like to be Black in The Netherlands?

I’m thinking of traveling for the first time overseas to a European country from the US. What are Dutch opinions of Americans? Those with dark skin?

They're going to sew a black star on your clothes, put you in a concentrations camp, and make you listen to Melanie.

A Macedonian"black".

Black is preferable to Moroccan.

They still haven't completely kicked out Zwarte Piet/Black Pete, despite best efforts

OP, you need to be more specific.

What’s it like trolling for dick as a black bottom in the Netherlands?

R8 No American is considered cool anymore. Maybe few years ago.

You're a lot easier to racially profile

According to contemporary lore, "Black Pete" has a Black face because he's covered in soot from sliding down the chimney. They call these types of Black Petes "roetveegpieten" (soot Petes). A characteristically pragmatic Dutch solution!

When I visited with my black partner, no one said a thing. You'll get more negative, shocking reaction in Fargo, ND, trust me.

I’ve never met a person from the region without an American black mate. It’s cute but somewhat annoying because I envy their dual citizenship as an out of the picture white boy.

That part R10. :)

In randstad it should be fine. But in the hinterlands it wouldn’t be that comfortable all the time

The weird obsession with my country here, probably one troll. Not Belgium, not Denmark. Always The Netherlands.

That’s Dutch for REDNECKS. Who would be making the hinterlands uncomfortable (as mentioned in R17).

I guess it's similar to just being black.
