As a colored dude, it's hard to explain. I've even had white folks say, "Nah man it's not like that."

I think, "state approved racism" is the best definition. God forbid to be a person from Eastern Europe: even though you have a background akin to middle East (mostly democracy and wealth-wise), you'll get treated as a fucking King Charles in US because of your skin color. Check my privelege? I didn't have any to begin with!
I mean given the USA's history with black slavery, it's not exactly surprising their focus is on black people specifically.
Unfortunately, Europe doesn't do much better in that area, although it should know better. Hearing Germans talk about how they have to support Israel then turn around to talk shit about Poland getting money from them is infuriating.
