Is it safe for me and my Asian friends to come to Poland?

well they were born in uk but are asian..i was told or should i say i read,that polish dont like asian or blacks..

:D If a dog is born in a stable....
It doesn't make it a horse!

I've been to Poland five times (or maybe more) and will be moving there, at last, in December.

I'm Japanese, but had no problem at all.

Some years ago in Nowy Sacz, Skin Heads even bought me some beers and drove me back to the hotel. LOL

Yes,if you get circumcision first.

As a brit that not only feels at home here, but feels 100% safer than living in London, im concerned by this question raised.
Why would someone ask that, due to their skin colour if its safe to go to a sophisticated European city? what do they thinks goign to happen? there going to stopped at customs and told to go home?

Ridiculous.

Everyone is free, go where you like. Stand out, blend in. It DOESNT matter....christ, it makes me angry.

I'm East Asian and have lived here since August 2008 and have had only two attacks, not bad I suppose. First one was on arrival at the airport where I got in the way of a group of local women who wanted to jump queue ahead of me. (I guess it would be redundant to say that Poles do NOT understand queuing). They were crossed and kept saying quite loudly, "like egg yolk" and giggling behind my back...brilliant welcome to the country!

The next time was when I walked out of the railway station and a couple of local yobs (not unusual outside railway stations, anywhere) randomly decided to call out "Cengiz Khan" at the top of their voice. Flattery or abuse - didn't stick around long enough to find out!

It can be fun though - I always scan the faces in the buses to see who would be most p**sed off if I sat next to them. I'd plonk myself down and start blowing my nose or scratching my armpits or something. Hee! Hee!

I lived in Poland for one year and I am half Persian half Polish. I look more Persian because of the dark hair and light brown skin And I have NEVER ONCE received a racist comment towards me. But then again asians and black people will probably have a tougher time since there so exotic Im sure there are Poles that would love to know you. But in this day of age unfortuantly we still got them racists!

You dont think there is a problem with racial attacks in Poland or you think that the victims should just ignore it?

That is a kind of silly thing to say if you are white. How would you know?
If the comments I hear from Poles on public transport here in Engalnd about dark skinned ppl are anything to go by, its not somehwere I would be rushing to if I was black or Asian

Wow thats a pretty ignorant thing to come out with ! Every time I come on this forum I'm blown away by the bigoted views that belong in the 1950's !

If they where born in England they are English. Fact. ShellyS are you so damn sure of your 'racial purity' going back many generations that allow you to call yourself english, polish or whatever !!?? Take a look at your family tree and you will probably find you are a mongrol like most of us !!

Sorry but that really riled me !

agree.... I nearly replied to that one earlier but wasnt gonna waste my finger energy on some silly ignorant person

I'd say they were British not Asian or English. English is more of an ethnic term whereas as British is more inclusive. I dont know many asians who will say they're English rather than British.

Not bad at all, I would say. That is, if you could even consider the two events to be attacks.

That there were two occasions when your ethnic origin marginally figured into people making unkind remarks about you does not legitimately constitute an attack. You should have to be a Russian in Poland; then see what you'd get.
