not all but most of the africans r involved in scams, drugs, fights, murders, prostitution,  gang wars etc, repeating again not all africans but most of them do, so it gives bad name to whole

I'm not sure what you mean by most. That's an exaggeration. I'm African and I don't personally know anyone who engages in such crimes. I read about it or see it in social media. Pretty much as I see other nationalities from other continents too. What I don't see though is lumpsum discrimination against a continent just because a few countries from that continent have criminal elements. I haven't seen ads saying no Asians allowed just because India or Pakistan or Phillipines has criminals too. I do see Kabayans only, or mixed nationality but when you get in touch with them, it does not mean Africans.  It just outright racism, not shocked by it. It happens everywhere but to be so prevalent and accepted like it's the norm shamelessly should be troubling for a multicultural, indiscriminate nation.

It's not even most Africans that are criminals it maybe 1 or 2 countries from Africa. It's just pure racism. I am a south African currently trying to rent and everywhere I went literally everywhere in Sharjah it's either they tell you the building is full and you saw a post or they give you very high price for instance one agent posted a place for 36000 3 BHK but when I contact him he told me he has a 2 BHK for 42k when I informed him I will get back to him he said in a proud voice hurry cz it's almost full and only place that takes Africans. It's so outrageous how we being treated. These Asians they are so proud of are the biggest criminals that run away with loans , leave the rental houses a mess like an animal was staying there and they have the guts to say most Africans when will this ever end is there a place where an African is regarded as humans who have feelings.

Is there no way the apartment problem should get to the UAE government because is driving me crazy, how can someone go to work and come back that the refused to renew apartment then u decided to look for apartment when they ask which nationality u said african next u hear is sorry no allowed Africans. What's going on... the punishment is too much unbearable 💔

Discrimination of any kind is not only unfair but also goes against the principles many places claim to uphold. It's definitely a complex issue, and unfortunately, not uncommon in some places despite laws against it.

Where we Africans going to stay!

This is soo depressive...

@shikusantana6

It iss depressive

Am looking for a house and each time you get obe it is soo high or tgey ask you 1 cheque...why is that on 1 community only...i think in each humain and communities we have the good and bad peoples...they refuse to give us contracts and they refuse us even sharing appartments

feel you — it’s beyond frustrating to face this kind of discrimination when you’re just trying to find a place to live. It’s unfair and honestly shocking in a place like Dubai that prides itself on being global. I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this.

One thing that might help is checking out NestFinder. It’s a site I’ve used to search for housing in the UAE, and it lets you filter by location, price, and type (like villas or apartments). It’s not a fix for the discrimination, but sometimes it shows listings from private owners who might be more open-minded than some agents or buildings with strict rules. You could try reaching out directly to landlords there and see if it opens up more options.

Has anyone had luck finding welcoming areas or platforms that don’t pull this nonsense? This really needs to be raised higher up — it’s unacceptable.

How to develop an awareness to avoid such situation for Affricans in UAE. There can be a discussion

Right, the more people are globalized, the more they are segregated. If they will not provide home to the Africans, where will they stay? First of all they should change the way of thinking.
