So we're going to forget that London, Paris, Amsterdam, Lisbon and Madrid weren't the centers of colonial empires based in slavery? Does SL Jackson even know what we went through in Britain and the rest of Western Europe? No, we haven't had "interracial dating for a hundred years" in some utopia, we had hatred and stigmas and violence to overcome due to racist police officers, arsonists and Teddy Boys. Thank God Jamaicans dealt with the T Boys.

Black Americans need to understand that as 13% of a majority White country they don't live the reality of the rest of us outside the USA. When will they realise there is more to being Black than the American experience?
