Lie About France? Ha! The World Owes Me An Apology

"Black Americans, don't be surprised if someone slyly offers you 'niggerheads' for dessert: They're racist as all get-out in France. They just won't admit it - even to themselves - just ask the Jews.

But, of course, they demand that Americans must have a black president, while France doesn't have a black anything. They don't even like printing the word 'black' in newspapers. Hell, I once went to the equivalent of a Home Depot in France and they didn't even have black paint!"

"In a country that takes pride and expends considerable energy to ensure that the principle of "egalite" (equality) is strictly adhered to, there are some racial references practically embedded in the language and culture here.

"Negre" is the N-word in France, and it is used in ways that would raise eyebrows elsewhere. A "negre," for example, is a ghostwriter in French, "tete de negre" is the name for a chocolate pastry, and "petit negre" is the way one refers to poor or pidgin French."
