This sounds very much like "sleep paralysis," which is a mild malfunction of the normal paralysis that occurs during sleep. The sensation of being held down is very common in sleep paralysis; it has no particular symbolic meaning and is not cause for concern. Identifying your oppressor as a black man may simply reflect your conscious or subconscious perception of evil by taking the form of the stereotypical "Other."

Why will the Olympics be held in London?

why not they have been held in many other cities and capitals so why not have them in London? the Olympics will be held in London because it is a well known area but also because they will be held in East London which is quite run down so they hope to make it more modern, cleaner and more accessible.
