Racism is one of the realities that many Nigerians endure in the diaspora, albeit its severity varies depending on where you live. Do all diasporas face racism? The honest answer is, probably some; but not in the same way or to the same extent. What you encounter is frequently determined by your skin colour, accent, occupation, or even the place in which you live.

For Africans, particularly Black immigrants, racism frequently manifests itself in subtle ways. It might be a raised eyebrow when you speak with an accent, the notion that you are under-qualified, or the invisible ceiling when it comes to promotions. Sometimes it is overt, such as nasty remarks or exclusion. These experiences remind us that even in developed countries, equality is still a work in progress. Pretending racism does not exist is unwise—but defining your entire life by it is even more damaging.

Not every encounter is racism, though. Some Nigerians abroad fall into the trap of interpreting every difficulty as discrimination. While prejudice is real, laziness, lack of preparation, or cultural differences can also create obstacles. The danger of always crying racism is that it blinds you from seeing what you can control and improve. We must be wise enough to distinguish between genuine injustice and personal shortcomings.

At the same time, it is critical to recognise that other diasporas—Indians, Arabs, Asians, and Eastern Europeans—face discrimination in other ways. Racism isn't only about black and white. Every immigrant group faces some difficulty with acceptance. What unifies us is our shared experience of being "the outsider." This awareness should lead to solidarity rather than isolation. Communities that work together are more effective in combating racism.
