Videos About Africans

There is an entire Chinese industry profiting off of racist videos about Africans. Yes, you read that correctly. Sadly, in the year that is 2022, racism is still a global epidemic and a recent report from Rest of World is proof of it.

For example, the Chinese video app, Kuaishou, drew in tens of thousands of viewers, who watched as a young Chinese man hosted a beauty pageant where he scrutinized Zambian women. And ladies and gentlemen, this is one of the main sources of primetime entertainment in China.

In this specific video, viewers watch the young man dish out lines to the women to repeat back to him, and comments like “All good – except too Black,” flood the video via the app. One contestant also begins to sing after being instructed to do so. Another person commented, “Number five has straight legs,” about another woman participating in the pageant.

The host of the show is 28-year-old Cheng Wei, who has roughly 10 million followers across various Chinese social media platforms under the handle “African Mr. Hello.” Throughout the contest he makes strange remarks about the women and even goes as far to say the following: “Africans are inherently savage, barbaric, you know? They only have profits in their eyes” (An ironic thing to say for a person drawing in a profit from mocking African people).

2. So then, get your asses out of Africa and stop buying up the country's resources.

I can't for the life of me understand why so many in Africa are willing to do business with the Chinese who are among the most racist ethnic groups in the world.

Africa Eye: Racism for sale

In February 2020 a shocking video began to circulate on Chinese social media. A group of African children are being instructed, by a voice off-camera, to chant phrases in Chinese. The kids repeat the words with smiles and enthusiasm — but they don't understand that what they're being told to say is " I am a black monster and my IQ is low."

The clip ignited outrage in China and beyond. But no-one ever answered some crucial questions: why was this filmed? Where was it shot? Who made it?

These questions send BBC Africa Eye reporters Runako Celina and Henry Mhango on a journey into a Chinese video-making industry that exploits vulnerable children across the continent.
