The country does not have much cultural diversity like South Africa. In Mzansi, we have Asian, Chinese, Indian and white people coexisting with black people from different tribal groups.

Most Chinese people only see black people in the media, and they are completely shocked when they meet one in person, especially in their country, because spotting the odd one out is not much of a challenge.

A Mzansi lady who visited China received much attention because of her appearance. Chantel attracted a group of women who were astonished by her African features and hairstyle.

The ladies kept touching her as if they were checking if she was real or not. Chantel took it all in and posted the experience on her TikTok with the caption:

"POV: Perks of being black in China."
