I've been to Poland quite a few times (love it!) and, as a mixed race (western european + west african heritage), the worst racist comments and treatment I received was, ironically, from a jewish person in Krakow's jewish quarters - (if he was actually jewish is anyone's guess). I'd agree that it's a generally racist society but I wouldn't go as far as saying super-racist, but then again, I was never spat at. Of course I could come up with dozens of anecdotes, like a woman refusing to shake my hand saying "I don't touch black people" after shaking everyone else's hand in my group, but I'm not comfortable generalising since almost everyone I met was super welcoming and friendly, without a hint of hatred or disgust. Let's not judge a country by a few rotten apples!
