Hello, I’m one of these ‘actual POC’ who live in Europe…and the thing is there’s no coherent idea of whiteness there at all. So when you mean white American, say white American. But I implore you to stay in your lane, because when you say things like ‘no white person anywhere in the world ever knows what it’s like to face racial discrimination’, it’s really fucking offensive to all of the European immigrants who are denied jobs, harassed by the police and beaten by racists, because foreign is foreign to these people, and they don’t give a shit if you’re technically white. Race and ethnicity are not as clear cut, so it can be very confusing for non-Europeans to wrap their heads around. This is all basic stuff and it’s very much taken for granted here. And then even when you do get an interview, half the time you walk into the joint several shades darker than everyone else and feel like you’ve walked into the ‘Swedish supermodel’ clubhouse and you just know you’re not getting hired A guy I know was actually told by his boss to reduce the pile of CVs he had by ‘chucking away any with a name you can’t fucking pronounce’ Here in England, Europeans with really blatantly foreign names, such as myself, find it more difficult to get job interviews, because they take one look at our name and don’t bother reading the rest of the CV. So being white in Europe doesn’t save you from racial discrimination, because sure, you’re technically white, but you’re not white white. So this really only becomes an issue if you’re an immigrant Being white isn’t as important as where you’re from Which is why we have this notion here in Europe of ‘nationality over race’. We’re not white like white British people. Despite being white, a lot of Europeans from Italy, Greece, Spain etc, don’t feel white in the traditional sense. My response is always ‘well I’m not anything else, so obviously I must be’ People here in Britain always question if darker skinned white Europeans are ‘actually white’.
I have family who don’t think of themselves as white, they just think of themselves as Italian and don’t really give much thought to their skin colour There are Europeans who don’t class their ethnicity as their skin colour, but as their nationality. When you fill out a form, under ethnicity, there are several options for white white British, white European, white other. Shades of white in Europe range from ‘freshly fallen snow’ to ‘I am frequently mistaken as being from the Middle East’ ^^ non-European tumblr, I’m gonna explain to you why ‘white’ isn’t as simple here as it is in the rest of the world CREDITS TO ALL THE OWNER OF THE VIDS.įollow me on twitter~ kekeke.
