I was dating a Philippine woman and went to church with her. I really liked her and we were at her Filipino church. An older woman came up and asked her in front of me if she was going to marry a white guy. The women laughed it off as a joke but I was really ticked. If someone at my church had acted like that I would have told him or her off.
I have hung around a lot of different ethic groups. I most hate that due to me, someone trusted another white guy thinking all white people are nice and ended up screwed over.
You may not want to believe it but you are always an ambassador. I hired a Gay guy once, I am so naive I didn't know, and I don't care if you work you work, any way because he was such a great employee, other managers were hiring gay guys because they were gay.
You are always being looked at. You may be the kind Black man at the grocery store that makes the manager hire a young black man, or be the jerk Christian that makes a manager never want another of those. Life is not fair. We learn from our experiences.

One incident stands out in my mind. When I was 23 years old I applied for a job as a Sales Administrator. Over the phone, the interviewer told me that I had all the qualifications he was looking for, education and experience. He wanted me to come in the next day for the interview. When I got there the next day, as soon as he saw me his face fell. You could almost literally hear his face hit the ground. He raced through the interview with a "don't call us, we'll call you" attitude. I knew it was because I am black. My name does not scream my ethnicity, nor does my voice. I came to the interview impeccably dressed and presented myself professionally. It really hurt me because it was the perfect job and I know it's because the guy was racist. Now since I am a lot older (30's) I would have handled it differently. At the time I did nothing.

People are every day as I am an Englishman living in Japan. It really doesn't bother me though as it's just because I am different and people aren't really mean about it...although I have been stopped from entering bars and nightclubs before.
