Welcome to the board and I really appreciate your honesty may Allah Reward you much.
However, not only in Saudi Arabia or Kuwait that Muslims are not fully applying Islam which is actually a major problem. But what we should do is tell others not to judge Islam by Muslims. I mean those who are racist are not applying Islam so why blame Islam. Plus sorry to tell you, this brother is not the first African American who faces racism from Muslims. Others did to, but they were able to differentiate between Islam and Muslims. Sisters, there are Muslims who kill, steel, commit zina..etc. Muslims are not angles, or else why Allah Commanded Hudud (punishments).
Insh aAllah each one of us will try to improve.
