Racism, Has it affected you? Options

Has racism ever had an effect on you?
Not just being called racist slurs, but actually being limited in some way because of race.

Something like this happend to my parents a few years ago.

I know my parents went to some foriegn store our of the U.S. (Rome I think it was) and stood in line to buy some things. When it was my parent's turn, the cashier ignored then but, continued serving people that were even behind my parents. My parents didn't get helped until my father complained. It was supposedly because my parents are Filipino.

I've been called plenty of racist slurs when I was in elementary school and middle school. I think I may have experienced something like that. I was at a store where there's one line. I was standing closely behind customer the cashier was helping because no one else was in line and she was the only cashier. Then, when it was my turn the cashier tells me that I wasn't in line and the woman who appeared behind me agreed.
I don't know if that was a race thing but it was ridiculous. I was definitely there first!
