African Xenophobia Towards Somalia

[Dhagaxdheer]

@Dhagaxdheer is a Somali from Tanzania that says they’re not as racist to Somalis as Kenyans for example.

That was in my experience

The Bantus In Those Countries Hate Somalis Because We Be Making Money Over There

This is a bit true in some cases. It's not just about terrorists for a lot of Kenyans like some of you on here think. You're western diasporans so I don't think you get that in many African countries, especially the ones outside Kenya and the Horn, the Somalis there are often, though not always, well off. A lot of shop owners, real estate developers, mall owners, overall rich business people and the like. You sometimes hear the phrase "The Jews of Africa". A lot of these groups hate us for the same reasons they hate the Desis in their countries. Basically see us as taking their jobs or getting ahead of them in their countries. Of course this is misguided and most Somalis even in these countries are just getting by day to day but they don't always see that and just hone in on that guy who owns a grocery store.
