Because anything dark-colored is "black." And black is evil in China. Black represents darkness, evil, the Chinese triads ("the black society"), and everything wrong with the world.

 

My wife won't buy dark-colored clothing because it's "too black." There's some kind of freakish superstition going on, and it carries over to darker skin. Which is funny since the Chinese have black hair (side note: my wife doesn't hate black people, we know quite a few over here).

 

That, and they have the perception that blacks in America are criminals, uneducated, etc. Have you seen the CET examinations? They openly talk about how poor, stupid and uneducated blacks and Native Americans are. This stuff is drilled into them from a young age.

After eating several black people, they realised it was not helping their kidneys or slowing their aging, they went back to eating boring black beans.

Chinese people  even think that black  peoples' blood  must be black and they are black because they don't take shower . Once a Chinese asked my Tunisian friend  : Tunisia belongs to Africa ? My friend replied yes . Then the Chinese asked then why are you very white ? My friend said because I have been living in china for over four years !!

the have black cabs, black money, black people

 

thats weird they love 2 black things dunno what went wrong with the third one.

 

on a serious note:

most dont hate blacks, those who do probably heard to many bad news about blacks. stealing drugging etc. Its not only they hate blacks, most also hate other foreigners, just all bad

TianjinCity:

Go on Funshion (Chinese programe to watch movies) and type any movie where you have black actors/actresses. Watch it. Then tell me what's his role in the movie. In 90% of the movies either the black person is a thief, a drug dealer, a smuggler, a criminal or a violent person. Holly-shitty-wood has a thing for depicting black people as being all bad. This new hip hop industry rappers and singers don't help either. Now, if you think that having access to foreign movies in China is not very easy unless you have a VPN, the movies on Funshion will be the movies the vast majority of Chinese people will be watching. I had one of my co-workers telling me he is scared of black people. He never met one and if he was ever to pass by one on the street he would feel scared. The guy is a a fat 1,85 m guy. I didn't know if I wanted to cry or to laugh.

I've had this conversation with many people. I honestly think that Chinese racism comes from ignorance and not hatred. It's one thing to know something about someone and hate them for it and an entirely different thing to be scared/hateful of something you know nothing about. People back home are racist because of history/culture/upbringing. I feel that here they just don't know enough so they fear it. They also buy into stereotypes. I was at the gym a couple of months back and the one personal trainer came to me and started talking to me about how black people only come to China to sell drugs and have sex with their women. I tried to tell him to not judge all black people by this standard and to get to know each one first but he refused and said they were all bad people. I didn't know what to say. He wasn't going to listen anyway.

I wouldn't be so quick to say that Chinese people just completely and utterly hate black people.  Look at the crazy obsession with Air Jordan ,  Kobe O Bryant, and even those older basketball players like Allen Iverson. 

 

Usually if they specifically hate blacks,  then honestly speaking, they are still sorta leaning towards disliking white foreigners too...  I get the feeling that the real haters HATE EVERYTHING.

I also wouldn't use the word "hate", I think it's just them being careful, because western educated Africans are in no way different then us, but Africa itself paints a bad picture of it self and their habits, accent and some very different culture that Chinese won't even take 10 seconds to understand.

 

SO my point is that Chinese can't tell the difference between well Educated Western Africans and desperate survival family working People from Africa just by looking, so instead of giving them a chance, Chinese choose to turn a blind eye to them and just assume things that are wrong, it's just a picture that's been painted very very wrongly.. Movies and media are also to blame for this trend.

People who hate do not know the Father, and unless they believe in their heart that Christ raised from the dead, and confess with their mouth the he is Lord then they will see eternal torment. All people alike; western, chinese, african, all living souls period.

ironman510:

I'll be honest with you, your logic and reason is very understandable to me, but you're speaking Greek to Chinese, even if you were to translate this into perfect Chinese, they still wouldn't understand and give up trying to understand, therefore you point is useless at least for Chinese..
