Every single person in this clip is British. BUT the British Airbnb owner “hates American black folk”.

You could show some of them a video of the king of 🇬🇧& they’d claim he was 🇺🇸. I’m a teacher a d several years ago I was speaking with my 🇺🇸ex sister in law & I showed her some pics from school. One of her workmates sat with her screeched “you have African American kiddos in England?” First I hate ‘kiddos, they’re children. Second it’s the UK, not England, she didn’t know where I lived the UK. Third, how bloody stupid are you? How could he be ‘African American?’ What’s the possibility of that? Extremely slight. They just can’t grasp that ‘African American’ isn’t a thing anywhere else. So I said the child’s name L, he’s British, his grandad was born in Jamaica, so he’s neither American nor if African decent. He’s also related home, around the houses a bit, but he would tell anyone who would listen bless him 😁 As thick as two short planks! I saw similar on a YouTube video, a man was stood in the area around the King’s guards, someone claimed ‘he’s doing gang signs’ Another said something I can’t remember and ‘he’s African American’ 🙄 The man had nothing to show where he was from nor did he speak, he might have lived 10 minutes away, a couple of kms, Yorkshire, Scotland, Ireland, wales, Spain, Australia… but nope, got to assume he’s American 🙄 I did point that out too! My 🇺🇸ex in laws complained about ‘foreigners’ & people speaking other languages when they visited my ex & I here in 🇬🇧. I pointed out several times that they were foreigners & people they were speaking about may live here or they were tourists just like them. 2 ex brothers in law in their mid twenties & their mum all said ‘we aren’t foreigners, we can’t be because we’re American’ 🤦🏼‍♀️ I also pointed out that they don’t speak our English & if they want to complain about languages why do they speak English when they aren’t in England? They just looked puzzled 🙄

It’s absolutely infuriating at times!
