Joseph John says Indian and Sri Lankan players indulge in ‘covert racism’:

Indians across the world would be happy to be associated with whites, but when it comes to blacks it’s suspicion and disdain. Ranging from South Africa to Uganda, Black Africans have been wary of Indian-origin people, who from the colonial days considered themselves higher in the social scale. Some day I would like to see a film on an African-American in love with an Indian and how the parents react. The one such film I had seen, Mira Nair’s Mississippi Masala had given the ‘Indians driven out of Idi Amin’s Uganda’ context to explain the dislike.
