View submission: Following my ‘Eastern European discrimination awareness month’ post, more people shared their experience with discrimination and xenophobia/racism. Here are some stories I have selected:

It's the first time I read about this... I'm Polish but I've lived in Italy since I was 7. Luckily, I never faced any discrimination for this.

Anyway, I can't really believe that there are people who think someone is communist or a spy just because s/he's Polish... That's too stupid to be true. Right?

I am glad you haven’t experienced this! It definitely depends on the country. I would say that on average Southern Europe is more welcoming and accepting to Polish people. I think the situation is particularly bad in Germany.
