Life / Racism in Poland - the future [441]

I haven't read every single post that is in this thread,so should I repeat something that has been previously said,my apologize. I have been asked many times about race relations in Poland (I live in Canada but am of Polish decent) I do not think as a whole Poland/Polish people are racist,I think they are passionate about their heritage and culture and very protective of it,which is quiet understandable- after 2 major occupations of Poland and fighting for independence and freedom,I think it's understandable the thought of others questioning or attempting to alter the Polish way of life may be met by resistance.

In every multi-cultural society there is always going to be cross cultural miscommunication,but I don't feel that they are any more prevalent in Poland then here in Canada or in the U.S
