Yea, Scotland is something like 98% white. I literally never met a black person until I was 17. We had lots of Asians and Indians but not black people.

I grew up around Bristol, but didn't meet a black person until 6th-form college.
She was a classmate and we hung out a bit. I bothered her with sooo many questions. I think today it would probably be unacceptable, but this was the 80's so a different age. And I was so curious about what being black was like (and no internet to satisfy that curiosity without asking an actual black person).
