Black in Different Cultures

In Africa, black represents masculinity and maturity. In the Middle East, the color represents mourning as well as rebirth. It also symbolizes mystery and evil. In Asian countries like China, black is seen as more positive, representing prosperity and good health as well as being the color associated with boys. Feminine energy is symbolized by black in Japan while India looks on it as representing death and rebellion. In South America, it symbolizes masculinity on the positive side, and mourning on the negative side. In Western cultures, it’s also associated with mourning and death, but is also considered a formal and sophisticated color.
Seems in the UK..the word Black and pubs means racism, how ridiculous
