Talking about necrothreading...
@Jariel: Agree with Going Strong. El Negro Falucho is, at best, a mention in the country´s history, if the legend is true (some historians challenge his existance)
As for racism against black guys, as most of them are from the USA or Brazil, and you dont see too much of them, thye remain a curiosity, and you will not get any bad wive against you. You can hear a "negro de mierda" (dammed nigger) from time to time, but it is against the abo-mixmed population, not against actual black people.
That said, this is sloooowly changing thanks to the african inmigration we are getting in the last years, as most of them resort to sell baubles and fake bijoutery in the street, and they can be quite rude. I am meeting more people that curse those africans more and more.
