Black Americans are still stereotyped in his country, get real. And there are plenty of black professionals in Colombia and not even the most ignorant people see them as intellectually inferior. Why would they? Most are catholics and are taught that Jesus doesn't discriminate based on skin color.

Most people have no problems being friends with black people.
