Anti-African Sentiment in China

Asia Dialogue posted on 30 August 2019 a commentary titled "As the Sino-African Relationship Flourishes, Increasing Anti-African Sentiment in China is Alarming" by Kwizela Aristide Basebya, Communication University of China in Beijing.

The author argues that as more Africans migrate to China, there is rising social and economic tension with Chinese. Among the problems is a sharp increase in racist and hate comments against Africans by Chinese internet users.
