Overview:

This article mentions examples of African nationals in Guangzhou during Covid, either forced into quarantine, i.e. into hiding, or being evicted and sleeping on the streets. Again, despite Chinese public claim of no racism, many reported that they have been singled out based on their race. “Quarantine hotels are like forced detentions for blacks.”
Note: This article is useful for the amount of direct quotes and examples of discrimination African nationals have reported.
