I'd like to start an honest discussion on the use of "Negrophobia" in politics on White Americans to influence their vote. I'd like to keep the discussion respectful, insightful and informative. Please view the link below and provide feedback.

This page is slated for deletion due too only 1 reference.. I would like to add a chain from the last dicussion regarding deletion of Negrophobia from Wikipedia.. Liasted below is a a comment left by badlydrawnjeff during the last attempt to remove Negrophobia from wikipedia. Please see the references below.

Strong keep. The word has a place in an older book by the same name, published by St. Martin's Press and written by noted author and journalist Darius James, who writes books and articles about Blaxploitation. A more academic book is Negrophobia and Reasonable Racism: The Hidden Costs of Being Black in America, a more academic title through the New York University press, and Negrophobia: A Race Riot in 1906, by Mark Bauerlein with Encounter Press. The word is recognized by the American Heritage Dictionary as well. Combine these with the sources already listed in the article, and it becomes evidence that this is absolutely a necessary article. --badlydrawnjeff talk 11:05, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Do not delete this page from Wikipedia this is very educational, it provides knowledge and insight to the issues facing America and race. A fear of black people is a phobia that exists, for history on this issue please see the link I've pasted below.

The problem is that "Negrophobia" is not specific to the US and is prevalent among many nations. It is even rampant on Wikipedia in such sites as the "Moors", where no black people of so called "Negroid" characteristics are displayed or mentioned in the article supposedly about a term that has been documented as having been used specifically for black and near black peoples of all religions for over 1400 years in Europe. "Negrophobia" is equally prevalent among Middle Easterns and North Africans perhaps even to a great extent then in America.

Why start just a discussion - why not start your page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.0.120.70 (talk) 20:07, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

this word is not the same thing as anti-blackness, why was i redirected to here from there? please keep those pages separate: the article for anti-blackness it's own thing. thank you!

As to earlier, I checked the Moors page and it now does have images of "negroid" Moors. I think this page needs a history section to describe its impact on society. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mangokeylime (talk • contribs) 00:38, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review This article is organized quite well and touches on different aspects which is great. It includes the origins of the term, common associations and false interpretations as well. It seems that all the necessary ground has been covered here. The majority, if not all, of the sources are books which seem to be legitimately published. This shows the proper research was conducted and it definitely reflects in the content and quality of the page. One more thing, the overview was great because it acknowledged the different contexts the term may be used in, so this is great as well.Dcauley5 (talk) 02:38, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Removing redirect from anti-black and anti-blackness

These terms ("negrophobia," "anti-black" and "anti-blackness") are not the same. Generally this article would benefit from more context for its historical emergence and/or current use (the Rachel Maddow clip for instance appears to use the term sarcastically). The redirect from "anti-black" and "anti-blackness" will likely confuse and offend contemporary users looking for information on the topic of "anti-blackness." Until an article is drafted for "anti-blackness," a redirect to this Category:Anti-black racism would be more appropriate. Regardless, I am removing the current re-direct to this article. --Vaparedes (talk) 08:41, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Pathological

Apparently negrophobia is a mental disorder, not a political attitude. http://empirenews.net/american-medical-association-to-recognize-negrophobia-as-legitimate-mental-illness/ --105.4.6.142 (talk) 20:56, 26 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
