Im in Canada now - and yesterday i went to play pick-up soccer. This one guy kept saying stuff like ''not bad for a white guy!" "what do you expect - i am a white canadian!" "I think they were surprised that the white guy controlled the ball so well!".
What is it that every time i come to North America white people are putting themselves down! I mentioned to him that actually (what a shock!) the best players in the world are white, but it didn't make a difference.
This doesn't happen in Europe. i attribute it to the popular sporting culture here - it is SO black dominated in a way that is rarely seen in Europe. People here actually believe that they are inferior. In my view no one is inferior to anybody else.
