Tired of being black
Yes, i said it!
I am tired of being seen as an evil person, or a poor person, or an uneducated person, or that one black guy hired to seem international, or a vicious person, or less of a person.
They say black people are funny? This is the only pathway to not seem like a treat. Being black, feels like starting life at a negative value. Everywhere i go in Germany, i need to prove that i am not a menace, or some ticking time-bomb, or less valuable.
Imagine having an oral exam and the professor needs to multiple times reiterate if you are at the correct place.
Imagine starting your first day of work, but your colleagues thought you were a cleaner.
Imagine being the punching bag for some higher up, because you look different.
I just want to be treated fairly. Want to work, go home and sleep. I do not want to stand out in crowds.
I did my bachelors, 2 masters here. The only people to whom i can talk to, and won't be looked at with these "what do you want"-eyes are well-traveled people.
I immigrated in 2014, when there were few foreigners and quickly developed body-dismorphia: being the last or only person, with whom people sit with in public transports, hurts like shit.
Tired of living life, like a lower-class citizen.
