Why do Koreans and Blacks in America not get along? I know it had something to do with the race riots but I really don't understand. I live on the east coast and where i live there is a high korean population and the blacks and koreans have very good relations so I was suprised to find out blacks and koreans didn't have good relations.

In NYC I always heard one reason was because the Koreans came in and bought the businesses in black neighborhoods ("dangerous" ones) because it was cheaper. Black people didn't like seeing their businesses become Korean owned. The Koreans know it's a bad neighborhood so they don't trust the people there (blacks). The blacks in the neighborhood find that insulting and end up disliking the Koreans.

Who says Koreans and Blacks don't get along? I have never witness ill feelings between the two groups... And according to you, there seems to be a healthy relationship between the two groups.
And what race riots do you speak of? I do not believe any Koreans participated in the Tulsa Race Riot of 1921...

Never heard of that at all. My aunt and even mom has worked with koreans in a store on the corner for a few years. And they definitely got along fine. There was no problems that I was aware of.

Because white people like to perpetrate division amongst people of color

Because Koreans bring fake products from China and Korea to U.S. market and sells it cheaper and make liquir stores run out of business because of their FAKE SHOES, AND ALCOHOL from China.
