I told her you are blind and don't see it because it never happens to you. Well one day when we went to eat together a Caucasian couple was mad that I was able to eat in the place and wanted to move seats to get away from the spot I was in. My friend turned around and went off on them. She felt so bad for what I had just had to hear. She said I thought racism was over. I never knew it was still going on and I did ever notice it. An like I told her the color of your skin can change you entire life and the way people treat you.
Now I honor and look up to my black brothers and sisters that have made it to the top because its not easy but every does not have that opportunity no matter how hard they try. Some will never even get one chance because of the color of their skin and where they came from.
So no im not downing the blacks that have made it to the top they got the opprtunity but go outsude your community and talk to the ones who have tried day in and day out, who went to schhol and came out with a 4.0 GPA and still have nothing. Its easy for everyone to make their story sound good when they have finally made it.
n the person who said something about the famous people has already commented and i thank her for not being rude or think i was being racists. |
This happens when your white to. Ever see Save the Last Dance and how the white girl was made fun of for being white in mostly all black town/school? It happens to EVERY race.
