Actually no they pretty much haven't been ''invented'', in the sense that Northern Europeans would freak out if they saw an African man/women in basically any timeperiod before about 1850. The same with Africans, they too would and have probably been freaked out by the sudden appearance of Europeans during the Colonial age.If for example a white person were to appear in an African movie that played in 1600 I would be angry same with an African in Northern Europe in 1600. It's inaccurate.

Why do white people want to act like there was some kind of magical barrier separating Europe from the rest of the world that just disintegrated when they felt like it was time for slavery? Have you ever looked at a map? Portugal (which , for the obviously geography impaired anon, is in Europe) is practically touching north Africa. And what is your excuse for films set in old Europe not depicting Asians? Are we supposed to pretend that Europe didn’t trade with India? Are we supposed to pretend that Europe and Asia are not touching? 

White people are either the most delusional people on the planet, or they are just desperate to white wash everything. Good thing you hit the anon button otherwise all of tumblr would know you are an idiot.

Never Enough: Growing Up Mixed-Race with a Mix of Friends

“I identify as mixed-race. My father is white, and my mother was black and Native American. I have medium-light-toned skin, I have curly hair when it’s not buzzed, and I do not really look like either of my parents. When I was growing up, it was always hard to explain my background to people. Plenty of people, kids and adults alike, would ask me, “What are you?” as though I were some sort of unidentifiable artifact found in the caves of racial mélange.

When I would explain my parents’ racial identities (which usually had me saying my mother was black, as she typically identified as such), I would be met with a variety of reactions. Some folks would reply with, “Wow! That’s so interesting! Where did they meet?” I always took that as the inquirer being surprised that a white man and a woman of color could meet and start a family together. Of course, there was always the “Oh, so your mom is into white guys?” response or, even more like clockwork, “Is your dad into black women?” Also common was “You are a symbol of the melting pot of America,” a burden I never want nor have ever asked for. It seems to be given simply because I am mixed-race.

I honestly never knew and still do not know how to respond to these kind of remarks — other than to become generally annoyed.”

How is she so sure he doesn’t wear suits all time? see how she had to keep reinforcing her scary black man stereotype onto him to justify her (realistically unjustified) fear
