I'm not sure why any black person would move to Europe outside of the UK or Germany when they're going through their own economic political and social strife with immigrants. Look at what happened to that kid that just got killed in Greece not too long ago.
You'd be better off going to Canada, the islands or your Ancestral homeland of Africa
Because Western Europe has great conditions, lots to do, and good looking women.
This is one important point and I want you to consider. (agree or disagree, that is up to you)
The Asian discrimination against foreigners is a stereotype that is incredibly naive and innocent (for lack of a better word). It’s one born more out of curiosity and a reaction to ‘the stranger’ than an informed one.
A majority of Asians have never seen a black person, except on TV.
Remember the "racist" commercial?
From a Chinese perspective… it’s just viewed as a funny and light idea. They probably OK-ed it without a second thought. It shows naivete to a ridiculous extent.
Does that make it OK? Absolutely not. There needs to be education on this kind of thing, and sadly that’s just not a priority yet.
For the majority of people, there’s nothing wrong with it - simply because they don’t understand how it can be viewed as wrong. Sit down with them, ask them how they would feel if the ad was reversed with a yellow/white situation, and they get it immediately. But before that? Nope. Doesn’t even cross their mind.

Until there’s real education about racism in China, (and any asian countries), expect the very worst. Not out of spite, not out of a superiority complex, but just because they don’t know any better.
Sorry, but, that is pure nonsense.
Asians can be incredibly racist. What makes you believe that Asians don’t know any better? That's incredibly condescending.
Asians scream bloody murder when they think someone is discriminating against them. They know better.
People do move to places because of those reasons, but as a Christian, i doubt you would move to a muslim country for obvious reasons.
Why then is it wrong for a black person to have similar concerns and simply want to make sure the place they are planning on moving to is safe for their families ??????
A black American should not have to move out of the country simply to be safe.
Money is a pretty good insulator to keep the chill of racism at bay. It's still there, but having a sufficient amount of money allows you to "go out into the cold" and live your life. African Americans carry the burden of being an American when they go to certain foreign countries.
When I visited foreign countries I always imagined myself relocating there and I found that what I was really contemplating was living as an American in a foreign land, and we complain that some foreigners do that here.

Why would my wife and I want to leave? As black Americans, life is going great for us. I love America. I wore the uniform to defend it. I'm never going to leave.

Asian racism is institutional, too.
well, I am just expressing my opinion based on my own experience as a 1/4 Japanese girl in Asian countries.
You (a white dude) married an Asian woman might have a different experience.
That is all. I am not saying you are wrong.
