    I’m living in France now, though not in Paris. In my experience, racism in France is more subtle than in the U.S. but quite real. Some people go as far as believing that those who complain, are making it up because it is an American phenomenon. About the North Africans, I think that their religion also works against them. Unlike other groups who try to fit into French society in every way, they live somewhat apart. They tend to stick to themselves, observe their religious rules fiercely, etc. In some ways, their presence is seen as a threat to what is considered to be traditionally French. (Look into the headscarf debate). About the anti-semitism, I’m not sure.
