This is an honest interview. He said what he felt. But as an Indian let me clarify that there is no concept of 'evil white man' in India. We hate Western media who are always hurtful and insulting towards us, despite that there are no specific emotions. I also sense some kind of frustration, disappointment in his voice. Hope he will find more friends.

Bro you are talking about western media but have no idea what goes on on Indonesian social media towards India and Indians we literally have a Whatsapp group to counter Indonesian propaganda India aaur Indians ke khilaf join karna chauge? We have 7 members all Indians. There are more than 500 million views worth of videos on Indonesian social media channels (mostly youtube alone) targeting India and Indians specifically on a wide range of topics like street food (using clips actually from Bangladesh and sometimes even other places like African countries , China, Malaysia) while claiming they are from India. On open d f c t n issue using old stats and outdated video clips from 2010 when they uploaded their video in 2020. On caste system they will make videos purposely leaving out important facts to present an unbalanced biased view of the issue that makes us Hindus look cruel and like shavages etc

As a black westerner when I traveled there I found India to be the most filthiest and most racist country on earth. They are desperate to be white and desperate to have validation from a white person, if they get even a whiff that they are not getting validated of their fake glories, they get extremely mad/upset under the garb of 'colonial history '. The black nations in India from Calcata to Madras are particularly racist. The 'maid' system is the biggest modern day from of slavery. Lastly, India is a multinational, multiracial, multiethnic, multicultural subcontinent turned into a country by the Brits but never give this credit to the Brits.

Just wanna add, most of the street markets are not black markets, they are what we call part of informal economy, they are connected to the formal economy through levels of distributors and sellers which makes things more accessible but slightly costlier, or in some cases directly to the producers in case of vegetables and meats/fish, which is great, we get fresh veggies or meats/fish at cheaper price. This is why in India, it's better to get wet food from local market and everything else from retail, if you wanna get more value for money. On the other hand, black markets are those, whose products have illicit or unknown sources, such as thieves market etc...and yes, they too have presence in India, although those are declining over the years.

It is not uncommon for a non-Indian to feel like an "outsider" in India, but as anyone with some understanding of the world will tell you, it is an universal feeling, not specific to India. You DO feel like an outsider in a place very alien to you. Has happened to me when I lived in countries other than mine. Besides, how locals perceive and react to a foreigner also depends on how the foreigner in question reacts to the locals. My personal experience is that these things are highly reciprocal in nature. Positive people often find positive people. Negative people mostly run into negative people. A white skinned single gay man in his late 40s/50s in India, he is likely very very different from average Indian perception of a man. And so he experienced. I found his experience pretty obvious.

My experience is a little different. If you learn the language of the region, learn to appreciate the food or at least certain dishes and learn at least a little bit about Indian culture, people in India will consider you Indian. This is a big, diverse country, with hundreds of different religions and thousands of ethnicities and people everywhere look different. My uncle was married to a white Canadian woman and people in our community went out of there way to make her feel at home till the time my uncle and aunt both moved back to Canada after four years of living in India. We used to celebrate Thanksgiving day despite hardly anyone here knowing what it was and we used to decorate with French and Canadian national symbols(she had French ancestry). We loved our aunt, so we cared enough to find out what it was and how to celebrate it. My aunt in turn was a great inspiration for me. She was not just respectful of our culture, she actively participated and asked questions about our religious gatherings. You could not but like the woman, and after a week of living with her, we didn't even think of her as someone from a different country, she was one of our own. My mom cried when my aunt had to leave with my uncle and my grandma gave her her most prized posession, her ancestral jewelery which she wore with much pride. My mom has a picture of my aunt in a saree from one of my cousin's weddings in her drawing room, alongside her daughters. That's what she is to her, apparently. She continues to visit us twice each year, despite our Uncle having passed away 5 years ago. She maintains that we are her true family and we concur. Today, she has a successful legal practice in Canada and her and my eldest sister who graduated Harvard Med last year are an inspiration to my female cousins.

I actually agree with the Australian chap to an extant. I would say the people living in the urban areas of India are more exposed to Western or international films where song and dance isnt as prevalent, so sometimes we bring that expectation back with us into any Indian wood film and then get disappointed if they suddenly break into a dance. But for the vast majority for everyday Indians living in rural areas, song and dance in a movies is a critical ingredient int he experience of film watching, ( just visit any theatre with low cost tickets and see how excited the crowd gets when a song track plays, regardless of how dull the story is).

Sir, I am an Indian, living in Norway for 47 years. This concption of being one of them..is..illusion. I know..my heritage..and it reflects upon me every morning i see myself in the mirror. I am very well integrated into Norwegian society, and have been very well placed in working environment...yet I am different..I look different..I think differently too. I do not think I can ever be Norwegian..nor I want to be a Norwegian. I will alwayds be a foreigner. One example..when ever I meet some one new person..he starts talking to me in English..assuming..I am unable to speak Norwegian. Some times some young person ask me how long I have been here...hehe ! My answer to the young man have been "longer than you have been on this earth".. My advise to you sie..yes..yopu will always be foreigner. Lucky you..that you are white. You get more respect than any other ethnic Indian..on two grounds..1) They assume you are rich and intellegent..and advanced. 2) As a gesture of respect..as a guest in their country..and to behave with utmost respect. But..some..will try to cheat you..when it comes to services to get more money out of you. Yes..India has 15 different languages. HIndi being the national language..but English is the most spoken common language. Hindi is different to learn. I learned Norwegian in 3 months..simply because the alphabets are identical to English and many words are quite similar to english..just twisted around to form Norwegian language. So please Sir, enjoy your stay. Indians are lovely peaceful people. It is my view..as I see India now being in Europe..and USA for last 47 years.

Easy of living depending on the standards one maintain. iv. Self sufficient driving economy with growing middle class population. v. Allow Family values, religious values, respect for elders, honesty, hard work, education, both formal and informal, entrepreneurial spirit. vi. India is coming out of it's colonial past and trying to forge a new India with it's ambitions so it's has youth, ambitions, dreams, goals and stride to make it big. vii. India is blessed with all different heritage, seasons, foods, history etc. viii. Tolerant/Patience level of the people is to admire. ix. Unexpected growth in technology sector as people are fast catching up with digital economy. x. Transparency in India is very much visible. xi. Flexible inclusivity for all is present. Worst: i. When it come's to politics what can i say. People should talk about implemented policies for the betterment of it's citizens rather than talking shit. ii. Personal hygiene's, cleanness, pollution, traffic jam, noise can be controlled and it is also the duty of people to follow rather than depending on governments. iii. People needs to understand that religion and faith should be followed freely in their homes and should not be used as tool for vote bank politics etc. Once you are out of your home you are an Indian. iv. Reservation quota should be removed and replace it with free quota depending on once competency, hard work, far sited etc. v. There are people who are negative in each and every religion on earth who wants that nations should not be progress so because of such few people entire community should not be judge. vi.

It was really enlightening listening to Glen talk about his life in Mumbai. It is a view of many Westerners (read: white) that it is very difficult for them to blend in Indian society. And there is some merit in this view, which can be perhaps attributed to the two hundred years of British colonial rule in India so much so that a subconscious mistrust of anyone white is deeply ingrained still in the Indian psyche. It does not manifest openly in harmful ways but there is still a distance that people keep, and our own stereotypes of Western culture aren't helpful either. Lastly, one would really like to meet Glen and make his acquaintance.

As long as you are ready to accept Indian and Indianness you will be accepted. However if you have ur privileged condensing prejudice attitude you will remain Foreigner for whole life . Calling street market as black market after living for 9 yrs in india shows ur elitist approach , no wonder his experience is different

As a black westerner when I traveled there I found India to be the most filthiest and most racist country on earth. They are desperate to be white and desperate to have validation from a white person, if they get even a whiff that they are not getting validated of their fake glories, they get extremely mad/upset under the garb of 'colonial history '. The black nations in India from Calcata to Madras are particularly racist. The 'maid' system is the biggest modern day from of slavery. Lastly, India is a multinational, multiracial, multiethnic, multicultural subcontinent turned into a country by the Brits but never give this credit to the Brits. .....

As a Keralite, I can assure that, nothing of that Australian guy said applies in my area. For example: (1) Here most houses are big and only 2 or 3 people live in those spacious dwellings. (2) Also in every house, all its residents have a room of their own. (3) Here usually people don't appoint servants at home, no matter whether we are wealthy or not. (However, we appoint home-nurses for taking care of the elderly.) (4) Here nobody says, "No wife, no life". Instead people say, "No wife, happy life". (5) Well, for one thing I can agree with that Australian guy. It is, he said, boys even in their 20s don't know how to fry an egg. Yes, that's true. But that section should also include girls. Because here in our area, both girls and boys don't know how to cook even in their late 20s. (6) Moreover, when we come to his comment of wiping the floor everyday, I can tell you that, we don't even dust the floors more than twice a week, let alone wiping. Usually we take the mop only when some guests are expected to come. Or else, no need. Because, the atmosphere is always fresh and the possibility of accumulating dust on our granite floors is very low. (7) Finally, the matter of black market. It is something very alien to us. Because here people visit only the well organized legally accepted malls and shops. Also, we don't have bargaining system here. We just give the full MRP. *Conclusion:* India is a different vibe.

Homosexuality (and the LGBT spectrum) was criminalized in India under British rule because Christianity says so. Hinduism accepts gays, lesbians and especially transgenders and intersex people. Decriminalization of that should've happened a long time ago but we were under a very much Hinduphobic government for 60+ years 🙄😾

Nine years in India and you still not able to figure out Indians!? But I respect your perspective and would like to share something as an Indian. The fact that you are still secure with your religious thoughts is because we Hindus don’t bother to covert anyone’s religion. Whereas for Hindus some representatives of other religions constantly tries to change our religious beliefs into theirs. Men in India do cook and also help their wives with household chores. To know the true India you need to read about it’s history before British colonisation and Islamic invasions. The third gender was always respected in India. The British are the ones who criminalised third gender. It is today’s hindu government who actually changed that law.

I really feel sad watching this. We Indians should move on and change our attitude & old belief about white people. Economically India is growing but our mentality is same. We must overcome all the prejudices. As an Indian many times I feel we are lagging behind other nations in decency and mannerisms. Government must play a big role in it, to educate people about this: being polite, decent, not to discriminate anyone and to treat everyone with decency. And that will be true development.

@@smritijai5065 what are u saying? I lived in many cities in India and never saw a mistreated white. They can be conned but not mistreadted instead Indians mostly mistreat our own dark skinned people because of old colonial mindset. A white person always get appreciated. If anyone knows history Australia actually helped India in its struggle to independence. People have pain in their heart of being treated like animals. If we will snatch their right to speak, will make us uncivilized. I feel the person was talking about the people in history not on individual level. And you can always see exceptions in society. if two Indians face racism in Australia, will we start saying Australians hate Indians, no. Yes, he is a foreigner in India, so a guest is guest. Once he himself would accept India as his nation, Indians love that too. Adnan Sami, a person with Pakistan origin is proof of that.

Bollywood is not all Indian films. There are various film industries in India, these are the best film industries in India 1) Malayalam from Kerala 2) Tamil 3) Kannada 4) Telugu 5) Gujarati 6) Marathi 7) Bengali 8) Assamese You should see an Assamese film called Aamis that was one of the best movies I have seen. These 8 film industries have churned out 600 films with ratings above 7 out of 10. Then there is a Malayalam film called Great Indian Kitchen which is better than most of the recent Oscar films. I was seeing the list of greatest Indian directors and this is what I found 1) Satyajit Ray who made Bengali films he won lifetime Oscar in 1992. He is to India what Andrei Tarkovsky is to Russia. 2) Mrinal Sen Bengali 3) Adoor Gopalakrishnan Malayalam 4) SS Rajamouli Telugu 5) Guru Dutt Bollywood he was also a niche director in Bollywood.

Great video. My feedback I often feel about your videos though: You have people like him who most people could listen to for 45 minutes happily. Over far too fast! Other times the people are quite drab. I’m not sure if you publish 100% of interviews you do, but there’s some I think might’ve been better left unpublished. Either way take that as constructive criticism. You’re doing a great job with this channel.
