ok so I did some looking and came up with this.
“when their pilot, from the East African country of Eritrea, canceled the flight based on their "Arabic, Mediterranean" ethnicity, and told security personnel she refused to fly the plane "with a brother named Issam on it."
so an African American woman racially stereotyped 2 guys?

Dealt personally with it in my family (German/Latvian mom, Native American/Scandinavian dad) where the German and Latvian sides basically did the "This girl you are dating is nice... but she is RUSSIAN. and a Jew"
Egyptian friend was derided by his Arab neighbors growing up.
Different tribes in southern Africa. Same "they are Xhosa, we are Zulu, they suck"
Racism isnt just white European descent vs not that.

Quite often, yes. People in the USA often think of racism as a White, Non Hispanic vs anyone else.

Thank you guys for picking up on the irony. I think most of you got it. I’m surprised some are hurt or indignant that non white Americans can be racist. I’m also not surprised I had to do as much digging as I did before I found that fact about where she was from. That’s probably why the lawsuit took so long. Anyway for those that can’t use google maps she’s from the top right side of Africa. It’s a large continent with many countries that don’t like each other based on little more than race or religion. Please google hotel Rwanda.
