Anti-Colombian sentiment (Spanish: anticolombianismo)[1][2] is a xenophobic, discriminatory and/or prejudicial view of Colombia, Colombians and/or Colombian culture. Due to the diversity of ethnic backgrounds of Colombians, Anti-Colombian sentiment is usually based on nationality. However, ethnic groups such as Black and Indigenous Colombians may face additional issues abroad that White or Mestizo Colombians may not, and vice versa.[3]
Anti-Colombian sentiment most often stems from negative stereotypes of Colombians originating in popular culture, generally related to illegal drug trade,[1] prostitution and crime. High levels of emigration from the country, mainly because of economic and safety reasons,[3] mostly relating to the Colombian armed conflict (especially since the early 2000s), have worsened the situation by allowing stereotypes to turn into xenophobic acts against Colombian migrants.
