Please be mindful that the continent of Africa is very, very diverse.

The only negative interactions with Africans I have ever had are from Nigerians. I worked with a Nigerian girl 10 years ago and after training her incompetent dumb ass she had nothing but negative things to say about me and other African Americans to whoever would listen. I was very surprised at her prejudices toward us. Since then I have noticed that many Nigerians act the same way. (mainly cab drivers!!)

On the other hand, I have a friend and hair-braider from Sierra Leone who was the sweetest and kindest person to ever put hands in my hair.

In addition, my children's first day care provider is my neighbor and very good friend. She is from Ghana. I would do anything for her. She has been like a mother to them and I trust her any day!
