So my question or more accurately my questions are.... What's it like there in rural areas, suburbs, and cities? What's it like there for African Americans to be blunt or your observation on conditions for people like me? Is it English friendly.... (I'm an American at heart after all  ) TD:LR yeah I know it's most likely not the right place to ask such a thing but with the dwindling of active forum lurkers I want this to be seen and answered.
I'm Italian, but have been in France four times, two for work and two on holiday.
Altough I've just been between Bordeaux and St. Emilion, it was beautiful, for sure. But from my personal experience, they're not so foreigner-friendly.
Don't think it's english-friendly too. They'll understand you for sure, but many will answer you in French instead of english, basically telling you to "adapt or die" ;p
As I already told you, I'm from Italy. Right now, there's no reason to move from the United States to EU, except for Germany and UK, it would really be a pain if you're used to the American lifestyle. The cost of living is way too high in EU compared to the United States.
Therefor, there are other beautiful places to live in Europe, where the cost of life is much lower than many EU countries, and even lower than US. Romania, for example, is a wonderful place, where life is so "easy", if you know what I mean... Germany would always be the best place to go if you want to stay in Europe and work: the salaries are the highest in the whole EU, people are pretty nice, and almost any German speak english.

They have pastaaaaaaaa screw pasta Bouillabaisse... but seriously, the only reason id go to italy again is pompei and then i would promptly GTFO.
Don't get me wrong, Italy is the best place in the world to visit.
Extremely artistic cities such as Rome, Florence, Venice, Padua, Pisa, Bologna, Siracusa, Palermo, Taranto; a breathtaking seaside in southern Italy, Sicily and Sardinia, many of the most wonderful monuments in the world, footsteps of a glorious history every corner. Oh, Italy is so wonderful!
Italy has been literally ruined by italians, or, well, by its politicians. You should not come here to live and work, it's a suicide right now.

Not trying to rag on your country but my first impression was the docks of Naples then i took a train to Pompeii(which was great btw)
Well, yeah, the docks of Naples are not the best first impression :D but I can guarantee that Naples is a wonderful place too!. And, yes, Pompei is really a special place... you can actually touch 2000 years old structures, lifestyle etc...

well, not really racist in my opinion and experience...let's just say they care about their national identity, which is okay imo.
