Fed up black Americans are saying, "it’s Time To Get Out Of The U.S."

Devon Kitzo-Creed, a 28-year-old African American woman, always planned on leaving the United States to live abroad. Definitely before she had children, but probably not until she was in her 30s.
2020 pushed up her timeline.
“It’s like the Black woman really is the most disrespected, disregarded person in America,” she said, echoing a Malcolm X quote made even more famous by Beyoncé. “So, I’m leaving.”
Kitzo-Creed is part of a group of African American professionals looking to leave, or who have already left, the United States. HuffPost spoke to several who said they were fed up with the daily drumbeat of racism, discrimination at work, the hostility of police officers, the fear of doing even the most mundane tasks.
Kitzo-Creed recalled how just this summer, she was getting followed around the grocery store. Another man recounted how a police car followed him at night just recently, sending his heart racing. A woman recalled asking a repairman at her home to put on a mask because of the pandemic. He told her, “We won’t need to do this after Trump wins the election.”
Almost every Black professional HuffPost spoke with had a story about a tense encounter with the police

I wonder what the next excuse is going to be once they realize how awesome America actually is

They’ll come crawling back, most other countries are significantly more racist

She ever heard of Oprah or Michelle Obama?

Well, bye.
They’re going to be really disappointed how much they are going to be giving up living elsewhere in the world. They’ll realize how great the USA is and be back when they see how much differently the rest of the world lives.

Didn’t she star in Precious?

They don’t like our president so they play the victim card to project blame for their own personal problems.
Shocker.
Shocker.

This stuff is absurd
Europe - They won't let you (or I) live there without jumping through years of hoops
Africa - Yes, enjoy the stellar treatment you'll get from men. Continent is very well known for female empowerment.
Asia - LOL

Okay, renounce your citizenship before you move. This way we don't have to let you back in when things don't work out so well for you abroad.

No one gives a frick. No one is keeping you here unlike all the communist countries you so worship, you are free to leave anytime.
