Being racist to asians Options

[jennyjenny]

Alright, I seriously need to say something about this racism in my town. Tell me what you think:

Ok, my town is like, 90% white people. The town I used to live in like, 7 years ago was more white. It was more like 99.9% of whites. And they would always be like "ching chong chang" and me and my brother didn't exactly "fit in" cause we were chinese. So we moved to another town where probably 85% were asian. It was good but then we moved to this shit town. Ok, I hate the fact that they always ask me "can u speak chinese?". I mean, that's like asking if you can speak another language, i don't see what's so cool about it. If u wanna know how to speak it, get off your lazy ass and learn.

In 7th grade, there was this one kid, Devin. And he would be all "asians drive bad" and " asians are short ". Stereotypical stuff. And all this other shit. So one day I go online and see this girl (one of those people you would call popular and preppy and all they care about is there makeup, you know) and her profile would be all " omg im scared to go to the nail salons again cause the stupid chinks would probably break my nail or something". Ok, first of all, chinks, that word is like saying "nigga". I mean, you can say the word to other people of your own race but if you say that and you're not that, don't say it, it's offending. And second of all, it's more vietnamese people who own nail salons. So this girl, she goes and gets xanga. Xanga is probably like 95% asian. And that is stupid because first she's talking about chinks and then she joins something where the community is 95% asian. Okay?

So, 8th grade, Devin has gotten over the whole asian thing (kinda) and I have to sit with 5 other people in spanish and they act racist EVERY DAY. Asking questions like "are u part of the asian invasion?" or "i should use these eyes, they look like chinese eyes" and then does that fag thing where you make it look like an effing alien. And all these other shit.

I mean, you might think racism has stopped, but it seriously is going on everywhere. What are your opinions?

Racism has been around since.. well.. probably even before Christ..

I'm not sure when the Jewish were around, but I heard a long time ago they were always pushed away, and that's messe dup. Racism will never end. Personally, I think at one point, every has been a racist, whether they say they are or say they are not.

Racism will never end and there are countless times that people have made fun of others because of their races. Although, it seems like you think that racism mainly happens to Asians, or that is what I see from your point of view in what you typed. There's so many racists that don't like African-Americans, Mexicans, Jewish, Canadians, etc. Racism is initially bad, but there's racism everywhere, so there's no absolute escape from it. Even if you lived in America, and then came to Asia or something, there will probably be people who would still make fun of you, saying you're too Americanized and whatnot.

Of course this is based on what I see. So don't take any to offense.
