BlackinAsia

I'm a 22 year-old black guy from American of Nigerian and Swedish descent, and I'm currently teaching English to elementary school kids in rural Taiwan for a year.

These are some of my thoughts and stories.

And, no, I do not look like Lebron James.
I love LOVE you! Your sacrifices and the pain that you went through while in Taiwan was an immense challenge and I thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Words could not express my gratitude. If I can organize a welcoming group to wait for you when you land in the USA airport, I will, and we will all give you a great big hug welcome back. You are very dear to us and an asset to our people. *HUGS*

omg. I was not expecting this much warmth when I woke up this morning— pretty overwhelmed by all of the blatant white supremacy here— but now I can’t stop smiling. :) Thanks so much.

Would you be continuing your posts here? Or would you delete this blog once you're back in the States? I'm heartbroken... But, I wish you well in your future endeavors. Please know that you are loved, accepted, and regarded as a whole human being. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK!

Thanks so much, it really means a lot to me. I will be continuing the blog as blackinasia because being #blackinasia has been the year that has literally changed my life and made me “awaken.” It has been a turning point in my life and so I will continue on, using this space as reflection on the year and examining these issues of racism and oppression further.

Thanks for the support :)

Post a pic of yourself then Mr Romantic!

Hahaha. I mean my RL friend just called me a 15/10, so like maybe that will be enough to leave it to the imagination. No pic necessary.

You know what? We all love you! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

In all reality on the tumblr crush front, though, I think bad-dominicana is super cool. But it’s one of those things where you’re like the dorky, kinda nerdy kid in your school looking at the “cool” kids down the hallway and both admiring and being intimidated by how much cooler they are than you. xDDD

In terms of other people, though, much love for my friends unapologetically-yellow, blackgirlinrussia and blindjewwanderinginthedesert

You are so awesome. Keep your head up.
