Black American Expatriates Report Higher Levels of Contentment Living Abroad
============================================================================
In a recent article published by Kamaron McNair and Zachary Green on CNBC, some Black Americans share their experiences of finding a happier life abroad, citing reduced racial stress and discrimination as key factors.
The article, which can also be found on The Cancun Post, highlights the improved quality of life abroad for Black Americans, who often experience significantly less racial stress and discrimination compared to life in the United States. This is particularly true in host countries such as Mexico, where many American expats have found a more peaceful existence.
According to the article, a greater sense of personal freedom and acceptance in host countries is another reason why Black Americans report a happier life abroad. This increased acceptance is a stark contrast to the ongoing racial tensions and pessimism about race relations in the U.S., with 59% of Black Americans believing racial tensions will always be a problem domestically.
However, it is important to note that expat life is not without its challenges. Black American expats face immigration hurdles, financial and language barriers, and feelings of social outsider status. Despite these challenges, the escape from systemic racial issues is a major factor in the perceived improved well-being.
Adalia Aborisade, who moved to Mexico City in 2017, is one example of this improved well-being. In 2023, she stated that she has achieved the American dream outside the U.S. Darcel Duncan, senior brand manager at Travel Noire, a website dedicated to Black travel experiences, also agrees that moving abroad offers a more inclusive life for Black Americans.
While racism still exists in other countries, many Black expats report fewer experiences with discrimination while living abroad. However, it is important to approach any move abroad with a realistic understanding of the challenges that may arise.
The article provides links for sharing on various social media platforms and bookmarking services, making it easy to spread the word about the benefits of expat life for Black Americans. It is also worth noting that the Baja 500 pole position winner faced early disaster, demonstrating that even in paradise, challenges can still arise.
In the face of ongoing racial tensions in the U.S., some Black Americans are finding a happier life abroad. By reducing daily racial stress and discrimination, offering a greater sense of personal freedom and acceptance, and escaping systemic racial issues, the expat life is proving to be a viable option for many.
