There already is immigration of thousands of blacks to Japan. Thousands of Ghanaians, Kenyans, Nigerians, and Angolans. They are by and large well-educated, speak Japanese, and have decent jobs.

The Japanese are actually in somewhat fearful awe of black people (white people being slightly less scary and awesome in their minds); the only thing that comes close to institutionalized racism is the way they treat the Korean Japanese, and also the eta, low-caste ethnic Japanese who were unlucky enough to be born into a family that traditionally handled corpses or animal skins.

So yeah, the Japanese are pretty racist, but at least they’re honest about it, unlike in America where everyone is just as racist but will somersault backwards through flaming hoops to have it thought otherwise.

Hmm, yeah I thought about IF there was an African Immigration to Japan, they would tend to be
the educated types, not unlike the current African Immigrants to the states here where they weren’t
Physically/Psychologically oppressed through generations, hence they tend
to do BETTER overall in income and status compared to the ones here whose families
have been here since the Country started, most whom still can’t seem to get their shit together because of the
oppression, or perception thereof, that has sunk into their collective subconscious well into present day…not all of which is their fault I might add.
