If you think you're suffering prejudice in America, and you want to move abroad to get away from that, and you want an Anglophone country, unless you goto West Africa or the Carribean, you're in for a disappointment. The problem with Africa or the Carribean is, how you gonna make a living? The only choice out of those places where that is possible really is South Africa. Where you’re going to run into race issues as well, more than likely. Unless subsistence farming or nomadic herding is your thing, there isn't any other options. If you have enough money to live on for the rest of your life, then go for it, I guess.
You're going to find racism in UK, New Zealand, Australia, Ireland, Canada, and in non Anglophone countries its often worse.
Frankly, if that's your only reason to emigrate, I’d think about just moving to another area in the US. As much as the media leads you to think otherwise, it's not as bad in the US as it is in a lot of places. The only caveat is the cops. Cops in other countries are much less inclined to go straight to violence. Now if that's your reason, it's a valid one. Just don't expect to magically no longer encounter racism, because inevitably you will. It just might not be as heavy handed.
如果你认为你在美国遭受了偏见，想要移居国外以摆脱这种偏见，还想要一个英语国家，除非你搬到西非或加勒比国家，但你会失望的。非洲和加勒比国家的问题是：你要如何谋生？你唯一可能的选择是就是南非，不过在南非你也会遇到种族问题，除非你喜欢自给自足的农业或游牧生活方式，否则你别无选择。如果你有足够的钱渡过你的余生，那就去吧。
在英国、新西兰、澳大利亚、爱尔兰、加拿大，你确实会发现种族主义，而在非英语国家、情况往往更糟。
坦白说，如果这是你移民的唯一理由，我会建议你考虑移居到美国的另一个地区。尽管媒体让你感到不舒服，但美国的情况并不像很多地方那样糟糕，唯一要考虑的就是警察，其他国家的警察不太倾向于直接诉诸暴力。如果这（警察）是你移民的理由，那么这确实是一个合理的理由。不过你别指望奇迹般地不再遭遇种族歧视，因为这是不避免的，只是可能没有美国那么严重。
In many Third World countries you often can extend your visa indefinitely, but again, that does give you a pass on racism. Even at one of those borders, don't be surprised if the customs officers thinks your US passport is a fake. I've seen it happen. Find a skill that is in demand in the country you wanto go to that locals cannot do. In all Anglophone countries, that is well sewn up in common fields. Just like in the US, they don't like the idea of you going there taking jobs the locals can do. You might consider a non English speaking country and teaching it. But in Europe that can be difficult for non EU citizens, which now means Irish are the predominant people teaching English in Europe, as unlike you they don’t require a visa. Schools are going to hire one of them over you any day to avoid that headache. If you're set on an Anglophone country, consider a student visa and figuring it out from there. This can be an expensive way to go, however. But it is likely your only option in some countries like Australia.
但如果这就是你移民的原因，你大概很穷吧？在美国，任何肤色的穷人都会被警察找茬。为了在发达英语国家获得长期签证，你需要一系列他们所需要的的技能。西方国家统治得比较现实，如果你没有他们需要的技能、一大笔钱、或者不是叙利亚难民，你就无法合法居留。非法居留会让你的处境比在非洲更糟，因为在一个物价高昂的国家、为了糊口你会十分艰难，如果你是一个明显的目标、你的证件会被抽查，所以你还需要随时保持警惕。
在许多第三世界国家，你经常可以无限期延长你的签证。但同样，你也会遭受种族主义。在那些国家的边境，如果海关官员认为你的美国护照是假的、也不要感到惊讶，我亲眼目睹过。你需要找到一项你想去的国家需要的、本地人不具备的技能，在所有英语国家、都有这种共同点。就像在美国一样，他们不喜欢你去争夺本地人能做的工作。你可以考虑去一个非英语国家教英语。但在欧洲，这对非欧盟公民来说非常困难，这意味着爱尔兰人是在欧洲教英语的主要人群，因为他们不需要签证，学校通常会雇佣他们、而不是你，以避免签证这个头痛的问题。如果你要去一个英语国家，可以考虑学生签证，然而这可能是一个昂贵的办法，但在澳大利亚等一些国家，这可能是你唯一的选择。

Good luck. A good read is the August 2020 issue of Fortune Magazine - America’s Black Brain Drain: “Why Black American professionals are moving abroad- and staying there”. The article seems to focus on Black expats in Europe. From the article it is quite evident that Blacks find rampant racism in Europe (see excerpts below). Yet some still find it more refreshing - that being Black in America is exhausting - it is the burden of race always being present. I am including two excerpts from the article below
祝你好运吧。以下是《财富》杂志2020年8月1日的一篇好文 -- 《为何美国黑人专业人士正移居海外并留在国外？》。这篇文章关注的似乎是欧洲的黑人侨民，从这篇文章中可以很明显的看出：黑人在欧洲发现了猖獗的种族主义（见以下节选）。然而，让人更耳目一新的是：在美国、作为黑人已经让人精疲力竭，种族负担一直是存在的，我摘选了此文的两个段落：
00002. Over a decade, Léger says he tried repeatedly to secure a full-time role with the UN, or as a corporate communications executive with a multinational company. Léger, who is Haitian-American and speaks both English and French, says at the UN he was repeatedly passed over; the jobs ended up going to Brits who were not perfectly bilingual—a supposed prerequisite for those roles. In the corporate world, interviews abounded, but he says the leads would turn cold once he showed up in person. One would-be employer went as far as explicitly citing his race as an issue, he says, telling him, “Our investors will have a problem with a Black spokesperson.” Eventually Léger started following the European practice of putting his photo on his résumé to spare himself the grief. Once he did, even the interviews dried up.
00003. Léger attributes part of his struggle to a lack of formal or informal support structures. The number of top Black executives in the U.S. is woeful, but in Europe Léger found the situation to be far worse. “
在国外工作的这些黑人高管们说：他们摆脱了许多人形容的“美国企业黑人日常生活的例行公事”
·被要求解决公司“多元化”问题带来的疲惫感
·需按照不成文的规则生活，这些规则支配着你在工作中如何表现自己
·每天都要证明你配得上自己扮演的角色
许多黑人侨民说：一旦到了国外，背负着企业的重担，他们立刻赶到自己受到了重视、受到了同事的尊重，这在美国是闻所未闻的。
Léger 说，在过去十年里，他反复努力争取在联合国担任全职职务，或者在一家跨国公司担任企业公关主管。Léger 是海地裔美国人，他会说英语和法语。Léger 说道，在联合国、他屡次被忽视，这些工作最终都被完全不懂双语的盎撒人接手，这被当成了担任这些职务的先决条件。在企业界、他也进行了大量面试，但他表示，一旦他亲自出现、潜在的雇主就会变得冷淡。他说，一个潜在的雇主甚至明确将他的种族看作一个问题，并告诉他：“我们的投资者会对一位黑人发言人有意见的！”最终，Léger 开始效仿欧洲的做法，将自己的照片放在简历上，以免使自己难过。但他这样做了之后，就连面试机会也没有了。
Léger 将自己的苦难部分归因于缺乏正式或非正式的援助体系。美国黑人高管的数量令人遗憾，但在欧洲，Léger 发现情况还要糟糕得多。
所以，考虑一下你移居国外能得到什么？文章中的其他评论是：当受访者移居海外时，他们首先会被视为美国人，其次才被视为黑人。如果你认为人们不再会看你的肤色、我怀疑这是一个移居国外的错误理由。如果你厌倦了一切关于种族的事情、觉得有很多人认为你是在为美国所有黑人或你的社区发声、厌倦了无尽的期盼，你在国外可能会过得很好。我也希望能为你推荐一个完美的地方，但我做不到。我只希望你能权衡利弊，祝你好运。

British colonial Africa - Kenya,for example. They are black and speak English, plus some tribal languages. But I warn you - black Africans (as opposed to African-Americans) will place no premium on your black skin. I worked for many years with an African woman from Cameroon and NONE of the African-American women in my 15 years experience extended any “kumbaya” good will toward her. Don’t be lookin’ for a “safe place” for your dark skin to call home. Don’t take this personally, but I think you have been poorly schooled in your race-relations education. The USA has spent years trying to atone for the harm done by black African captors, selling their captives to white European traders to work the fields owned by mostly, but not all, white folks in both the US, the Caribbean, and South America. Oppression is equal opportunity - money was the motivator, not racial hatred or even prejudice. The traders were mostly north African, Moslem blacks, as a matter of historical fact. The captors were the stronger African tribesmen. You will find that most black Africans are poor, and work very, very, hard, so your “black Af- Am privilege” won’t get you very far with them, as you have been very well cushioned in this “racist USA” system. I wish you well, it ain’t your fault that you have been brain-washed that the USA is racist
到英国（前）殖民地非洲去吧，例如肯尼亚。他们是黑人、说英语，还说一些部落语言。不过我要警告你 -- 非洲黑人（相比于非裔美国人）可不会欣赏你的黑皮肤。我与一位来自喀麦隆的非洲女性共事多年，在我的15年工作经验中，没有任何一位非裔美国女性对她表示过善意。不要觉得为你的黑皮肤找到一个“安全的地方”、就能把这个地方当成家。
别当真，但我认为你在种族关系教育方面受的教育很差。多年以来，美国一直在努力弥补黑奴贩子带来的伤害，这些人贩子将俘虏送往美国、加勒比和南美洲大部分白人拥有的土地上工作。压迫是实现平等的机会 -- 金钱才是动力，而不是种族仇恨甚至偏见。据史料记载，这些人贩子大多是北非的穆斯林黑人，抓捕者则是强壮的非洲部落人。你会发现大多数非洲黑人都很穷，而且工作非常、非常的努力，所以你的“非裔美国人特权”也起不到什么作用，因为你在“种族主义的美国”已经被磨平了锋芒。我还是祝你好运，你被洗脑、认为美国是个种族主义国家，这也不是你的错。

I suggest Ghana or Southern Nigeria (Northern Nigeria if you are Muslim). Liberia also has a lot of potential - it was founded by former American slaves and has a special trade agreement with the USA. Egypt is facinating.
You could also choose Brazil, but will have to learn Portuguese - which is a beautiful and rich language. Here you could be an English teacher (get your BA in English and teaching credential for High School).
If you like animals perhaps being a tour guide for photography Safaris. Kenya, South Africa and Namibia have these. Many speak English there.
Most Important is WHAT can YOU offer the citizens of these countries? Make sure you are educated in something they need in those countries: nursing, doctor, engineering, business, teaching, etc. You of course will have to work. No welfare in these countries. Make sure you learn the history, arts, cinema and politics of the country you want to move to. Be respectful of their laws and customs.
Please understand that though many of the nations in Africa use English as their teaching and governmental language - most African people are bi-lingual with their Tribal-languages and English. If you get married there or hopefully get many friends - try to learn the local language as well. It will help you become closer to your new friends and family.
我建议你去加纳或尼日利亚南部（如果你是穆斯林，就去尼日利亚北部吧）。利比亚也有较好的潜力 -- 它是由前美国努力建立的，与美国有一项特殊贸易协定，埃及也很有吸引力。
你也可以选择巴西，但你必须学习葡萄牙语，这是一门美丽而丰富的语言，在这里你可以成为一名英语老师（获得英语学士学位和高中教学证书）
如果你喜欢动物，也许还可以当一名摄影旅行导游。在肯尼亚、南非和纳米比亚都有这种岗位，那里有很多人说英语。
最重要的是你能为这些国家的公民提供些什么？你要确保你受过的教育被这些国家所需要，比如：护理、医生、工程、商业、教育等等。
当然了你需要工作，这些国家可没有福利。一定要学习你想去的国家的历史、艺术、电影和政治，尊重他们的法律和习俗。
请你理解，尽管许多非洲国家使用英语作为他们的教学语言和官方语言，但大多数非洲人都说双语 -- 即说部落语言和英语。如果你在那边结婚或者有很多朋友的话，也需要努力学习当地的语言，这会帮助你与你的新朋友和家人更加亲近。

“I’m African American and trying to leave the USA. I’ m looking for a country that treats black people right and that speaks English. Where should I move?”
So a lot of answers are from the “America is the best” crowd.
Here's some things to consider; what languages do you speak?
Do you know anyone in a foreign country?
Are you prepared for culture shock? The first time I went to a bar in Germany I was shocked when the cashier put my change in a bowl instead of in my hand.
The trick to expatriating is not being “the Ugly American”, the stereotypical American that goes to other countries and complain that they aren't like us.
I personally recommend Ghana or Togo. Beautiful scenery, lovely people, decent cost of living, and Ghana is one of the African nations to institute the Right of Return, encouraging professionals in the diaspora to return.
A word of caution. The naysayers got one thing right. In a land where skin color is not an impediment, character is everything. Whether you go to Europe, Asia, Oceania, South America or Africa the trajectory of success relies on your adherence to local cultural norms and your ability to positively affect the economy.
所以，这里很多答案都是来自“美国是最棒的”人群？
我来说一些你要考虑的事，你说什么语言？
你在海外有认识的人吗？
你准备好迎接文化冲击了吗？我第一次去德国的一家酒吧时，当收银员把我的找零放在一个碗里而不是我手里时，我感到震惊了。
移居国外的诀窍是：不要成为一个“丑陋的美国人”，不要成为一个到其他国家抱怨“他们不喜欢我们”的刻板美国人。
我个人推荐加纳或多哥，美丽的风景、可爱的人们、体面的生活成本。加纳是非洲制定了“侨民权利”政策的国家之一，鼓励海外专业人士返回加纳。
提醒一句，反对者有一点是对的，在一个肤色不是障碍的地方，性格决定一切。无论你去欧洲、亚洲、大洋洲、南美洲还是非洲，成功的轨迹都取决于你对当地文化规则的坚持、以及你对当地经济产生积极影响的能力。

Originally Answered: I’m African American and trying to leave the USA. I’ m looking for a country that treats black people right and that speaks English. Where should I move?
This may not help but here goes..first of all English isnt common everywhere, also regardless were you go you'll always be American unfortunately. Look past a place that has English, if your willing to accept learning another language it definitely helps
Next lots of places will still treat you as a foreigner however even then you could still have good relationships.
Next and this isn't something majority of Americans will understand but I did time in Asia, asians overseas have a different take on black people that's very different from USA. Black people aren't seen as a bad thing but sometimes more of a curiosity ordeal.
Seeing a black person isn't very common in alot of places, next dark skin means something different in Asia being white or light skin is considered not being a rural farmer or poor. There's tons of advertisement for white skin. Being black to them would more or less have them wondering if you worked outside alot that your skin got dark.
Also understand there are different cultural norms, values overseas to that you have to adapt, you'd need to unlearn american system.
So where ever you move overseas have a child like curiosity. Best of luck
我说的可能没啥帮助，但我还是说说吧。首先，英语并不是到处都通用的，而且不管你去那里，不幸的是、你永远都是一个美国人。看看说英语的地方吧，如果你愿意接受学习另一门语言，那肯定会有帮助。
另外，很多地方仍然会将你看作外国人，但即使这样，你仍然可以拥有良好的人际关系。
还有一点，并不是大多数美国人能够理解的，但我在亚洲体验过。与 美国非常不同，在亚洲、黑人并不被视为坏人，但有时候你会被人们的好奇心折磨。
在很多地方，看到一个黑人并不常见。其次，黑皮肤在亚洲有着不同的意味，（在亚洲）白皮肤或浅色皮肤被认为不是农村人或穷人，到处都充斥着美白的广告。对他们来说，黑皮肤或多或少会让他们怀疑你是否经常在户外工作，以至于你的皮肤变黑了。
还需要明白的是，在海外、有不同的文化规范、价值观，你必须要去适应，你需要抛弃美国的那套体系。
所以无论你搬到哪里，都要有孩子般的好奇心，祝你好运。

If those are your only criteria then somewhere in Africa is an obvious choice. You have a lot of choice: South Africa, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Nigeria, Cameroon, Botswana, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Kenya and Uganda are all countries where you can move without speaking any languages other than English. You would have to do a lot of research to find out what kind of work you would find there.
Or of course consider the English-speaking countries of the Caribbean: Bahamas, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Jamaica… various options.
If you want a wealthier country then New Zealand and Ireland seem to have low levels of racism, but you would need to have a job fixed up in advance to meet the criteria for a visa,
如果这些是你唯一的标准，那么非洲的某个地方显然会是你的选择。你有很多选择：南非、利比里亚、塞拉利昂、加纳、尼日利亚、喀麦隆、博茨瓦纳、坦桑尼亚、赞比亚、津巴布韦、肯尼亚和乌干达，这些都是你不需要说英语以外的任何语言就可以移民的国家，不过你需要做大量的研究、才能在那里找到你想要做的工作。
当然你也可以考虑加勒比的英语国家：如巴拿马、特立尼达和多巴哥、圭亚那、牙买加...各式各样的选择。
如果你想去一个更富裕些的国家，那么新西兰和爱尔兰的种族歧视程度似乎比较低，但你需要提前安排一份工作，以符合签证的标准。

Originally Answered: I’m African American and trying to leave the USA. I’ m looking for a country that treats black people right and that speaks English. Where should I move?
Where in the USA are you living in? Come to Los Angeles County, somewhere that has a large black majority. Most people treat black people pretty well here. And Los Angeles has a lot of areas with a black majority. I have many black friends who are doing well here, one is even a supervisor at Water Department, and he's only 42 and he gets paid very well.
Also, how are you not being treated well?
Are you really not being treated well, or you think your not because of what you see on the News?
I feel like you shouldn't be leaving everything behind just because of some hate full minority. There will be assholes wherever you go.
Also, I feel like the media is putting this narrative out there, that if you're a minority and doing bad, it's because others are racist. But is that really the case, what skills do you have? Have you ever started any business? I feel like if you don’t have any skill, and never attempted to start a business, you can’t blame society and say you fail because others are racist. Just look how many whites are homeless compare to Asians, Latinos. If the majority of people were racist, you would have more Latinos and Asians homeless than Whites.
Also, everyone is behind the computer, and don’t know what race you are, when I or other order stuff from the internet, we don’t know what race is behind the website, we just order it accept to receive it in a timely manner. Or any other service that I call. People just want the work done, and don’t care who does it.
你住在美国哪里？来洛杉矶县吧，这里黑人占多数。这里大多数人对黑人都很友好。洛杉矶有很多黑人占多数的地区，我有很多黑人朋友在这里过得很好，其中一个甚至是水务部门的主管，他只有42岁，薪资也很高呢。
还有，你是怎样受到不好的对待的？
你是真的没有受到很好的对待，还是因为你看了新闻、才认为你受到了不好的对待？
我认为，你不应该因为一小撮人仇恨少数民族、而把一切都抛弃掉，不管你去什么地方、都会有混蛋。
而且，我觉得媒体正抛出这种叙述：即如果你是少数民族、做了坏事，那么一定是因为其他人是种族主义者。但真的是这样吗？你有什么技能呢？你做过生意吗？我觉得，如果你没有任何技能、从来没有尝试过创业，你就不能抱怨社会、声称你的失败是因为别人是种族主义者。请你自己看看，相比于亚洲人、拉美人，无家可归的白人何其多！如果大多数人都是种族主义者，就会更多的拉美人、亚洲人成为无家可归者，而不是白人。
另外，人人都坐在电脑后面，谁都不知道你是什么种族。当我或其他人从网上订购商品时，我们不知道网站后面的人是什么种族，我们还是下单、及时接受货物。或者我呼叫的其他服务，人们只是想把工作做完，并不在乎由谁来做。

If you have money to kick start, I believe you can get well in South Africa and have a lot of advantages. The advantage of the strenght of your US dollar can enable you to buy a nice house in a nice neighborhood and also enable you to invest in any business, prefarably property. Culture shock won’t be an issue since American culture and its people are also admired in South Africa. Language is not an issue either so you may not notice that you have left US. Basic infrastructure like good roads, schools, universities, good hospitals, good shopping malls, communication, national parks, beaches etc are there. The scenary is good as well. Crime is there but manageable like maybe in the US. It’s not as bad as media potrays it. You won’t get frustrated. This is just my personal advice not intended to promote South Africa over other African countries or any other country. You can do your own research.
如果你有启动资金的话，我相信你能在南非过得很好，并且拥有许多优势。美元的优势可以让你在一个好的社区买一套好房子，也可以让你投资任何商业，尤其是房地产。文化冲击不会成为一个问题，因为美国文化和美国人在南非也备受赞赏。语言也不成问题，因此你可能不会注意到你离开了美国。基本的基础设施，如良好的公路、学校、大学、良好的医院、良好的购物中心、通讯、国家公园、海滩等等，那边都有。南非的风景也不错，犯罪是存在的，但可控，就像在美国一样。南非并不像媒体所说的那么糟糕，你不会感到沮丧的。这只是我个人的建议，我并没有试图将南非排在其他非洲国家或其他任何国家之上的意思，你可以自己研究一下。
