Dont think such crazy stuff. I AM THE Pole in here. I know about the country you are imagining about.

Poland is one of the most tolerant, most beautiful, most warm and friendly country of the world. And one of the best qualities we have is that we choose good and bad independently.

In Poland there are all kinds of children....and they are loved equally.... and cared for in the same manner. People are respected for their manner and dignity. Not their color.

AND YES... this is Poland...

Nice reponse. I am a 1st geenration pole married to a black man, My family put me thru hell here in the US ( my family in poland most of them were supportive.)

Ive taken my beautiful mixed daughter to poland and she was t made fun of, yes people were intrigued but really many didnt care. I also had benefit of big city gdasnk. But as you said poland is very tolerant , especially in the cities. My biggest shock on the vacation was seeing on tv black anchor woman spekaing polish much more fluently than I.

I suppose if I ever go to polaond with my husband people may be much cruel to him but I find that actually more true here in the US. He has embraced my culture, our daughter goes to polish scouts & will be starting polish lanuage school. But the one 0r 2 x he whent to get her from scouts the polish people here look at himlike what the F?

Not nice....not appreciated ---especially in america the melting pot.
