All the Africans I have ever met were stand up people and I've met quite a few. I've work with new immigrants, still do. Every one of them have said to me that they think American blacks are lazy, crude and ignorant. It is common opinion among them that blacks don't know how good they have it in the states. I have even heard them call them n------- on more than one ocassion
I've met some Africans who were doctors, and attorneys, and were "good" in terms of ethics and morality. I've met Africans who were doctors, attorneys, business people, who gave the service appearance of being "good", but they were just as arrogant and ignorant as many of their American counterparts...
And I'vr met Africans, who were some of the worst "goons" (aka thugs) you could ever meet.
A funny story from my Jamaican Economics professor in College:
He would say, "Lazy black Americans, they don't want to work..."
He had brought a few black women to tears in the class.
One time I came to his office to ask for help, and he asks me:
"Mr. Park-ah, why are you not trying to talk to theese fine women in class? You have pretty women in front of you, pretty women to left and right of you. And pretty women in the back of you."
I told him that I was trying to pass his class...and not trying to be a "Lazy black American."
