    I always think it would be cool to visit some historical moment. Then I remember I’m not white and that I would not be having a very good time.

      You’ve just got to pick carefully. Race (as in skin colour as the determining factor for group identity) was invented in the 17th century, so before that you’re just a foreigner like the rest of us would be. After that, yes, avoiding Europe and European-inspired places is recommended.
