I was talking to a bloke from El Salvador who just visited home. “If you’re black and you visit El Salvador,” he says, “you’ve got ten days [to visit] and you’re out. If you’re Muslim, you’ve got a ten days and you’re out.”
Blog: “The historical black presence has never been officially acknowledged in a society that does not recognize ethnic diversity. In 1930, General Maximiliano Hernandez Martinez instituted race laws prohibiting Blacks, Gypsies, Asians, and Arabs from entering the country. This law was removed during the 1980s.”
