First you should ask if that occurs in the first place before you ask why. Most racists I encountered wouldn't accept Dravidians anymore thna they would accept a mixed Afro-European.

Many places will accept Caribbeans and Africans a lot quicker than they will accept African Americans.

I found that people generally accepted me as they found me. There were some folks who questioned my ethnic background but for the most part, I got along with just about everyone. I was a varsity athlete and graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in science. I encounted all sorts of individuals from many backgrounds who were always more interested in what I had to say rather than what I looked like. I have to also say that I am pretty immune to "put downs" by other folks and always resisted using terms like "high yellow" to describe other people.
