Racism exists!
Having a black president has changed nothing!
Telling a minority "Obama did it, why can't you?" is the most ignorant thing one can say.
Hmm...I don't know...where to begin?
Maybe because employers see me and already have no on the tip of their toungues.
Store owners follow me from rack to rack and shelf to shelf while white customers roam freely.
White women lock their cars when I walk past and clutch their purses in elevators.
Maybe because I will forever be a "boy" to cops to matter my age.
Because my English is always be "surprisingly good."
Being "color-blind" is bullshit!
I'm brown and proud of it.
For you to ignore that is just as racist as belittling it.
On the opposite end:
If i tell you I'm Filipino, don't tell me about your love affair with Asia groomed over many a pan-regional tour/vacation,
How much you "LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Thai curries."
Or how the Pho is just not the same here.
Don't ask me to "Say something in your language!"
I was born here, so how about this:
FUCK YOU!
