No thats bull so long as you arent up to no good and especially if they can tell your not from america your ok theres mostly black people in security jobs and prison officers over there.

I’m a white American leftist, and I’ve got my eye on social policy all over the place. Obviously America is reckoning with its generations-old, overt racist culture right now, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go see a gorgeous country. Wherever you go, the police will likely be 100% dogshit because that’s what police are. Absolute bottom line, I hope this post is old as fuck because PLEASE don’t travel, PLEASE don’t push these guidelines for COVID

Have an awesome time, in the south you will be the majority race in most situations (at least the fun ones).

Just remember when someone asks "how is your day going?" it means you should be reaching for a tip. ;)

I felt exactly the same as a mixed race guy with a few Arab country trips under my belt. It's a different situation, but immigration particularly worried me.
Then I went to Vegas and did a bit of a Harley Davison road trip. I found nothing but warm generosity from everyone I met along the way. As those above, people of all races went out of their way to be more kind and helpful than I've ever experienced at home.

You're not likely to get any hassles from immigration. As for the police, you should be OK. The precaution you'll have to take with them will be to a) avoid as discreetly as possible and, b) if they do engage you, cooperate at all times and never be argumentative in any way. If you have a legit problem with an American officer, take it up through legal channels AFTER the incident. Never during. That is a sure way to escalate.

Follow the rules above, and you'll be fine. Road trips highly recommended!

From my experience at first police may be arms house,
No good cop bad cop both will be bad cop. But once they hear your accent and you tell them you ain’t no N****** but a black man from UK they will change and you be ok.

Our media does not represent reality. Everyone is welcome over here!

It's not to that degree at all. Some may go out of their way to accommodate you out of shame.

A black person with a novel accent is going to get lots of smiles in the US minimum, you are going to have a great time believe me mate ;0

Yes. This.

You are more than welcome here, please come and enjoy your stay, foreign tourists are welcomed, we need the money!

It's not as bad as it looks on tv! Black people are a hugely important part of American culture and the object of love and admiration across a lot of different sub cultures. The immigration and law enforcement officers you are talking about are very likely to be African American themselves.

Yes there are some places where the inner city conflicts with the suburbs and its surely a racial situation but that's an isolated phenomenon and is unlikely to come up on your trip.

Enjoy the states and if you are going to make it to Chicago hit me up :)
