No way to decide this personally. Tough call.

Yes, quite a few times. Growing up I dated guys who were of another ( afro-american) race. I saw total blatant racism time & time again. The father of my kids who is also afro-american used to get harrassed quite often. Once while driving home we were pulled over and he was questioned about a burglary where he "fit the description". Never mind that he was with his fiance and 2 kids.....they still pulled him out of the car, handcuffed him, and called for back-up. He has no record what so ever. He actually is an engineer with 2 degrees, but he always gets these jerks who stereo-type him.

Yes, many times. From being pulled over by the cops for no reason, to being followed around the mall by security, to white guys driving by yelling out the N-word, and countless others.

Yes, I lost a job years ago because my friend, who was black, asked her aunt to hire me and she did so sight unseen and when she saw I was white she was not very pleased at all. Of course the reason she gave me for firing me was that she did not think I was learning the job as fast as I should have. My friend admitted it was because her aunt told her she did not want any white people working for her!! Ah well! Was cool, did not want that job anyway! Went on to much bigger and better things!!

Yes, my friend (and co-worker) from a previous job were told we were not allowed to enter the house and do our job as long as "he was with me". So Shaun and I walked away and said nothing. I actually hurt for my friend that day and have never felt that type of hatred before and hope I never encounter it again

No, as a white person, I have never felt the sting of racism

Nope, people where I live are very friendly. Although the losers across the road has the '4 Ls' Hitler sign on his garage. It's disgusting.

Yes, I'm in a neighborhood where there are only few whites. One of the teachers were white and send almost all of the black kids out of the classroom. I couldn't even get my education.

I am about 20 lbs overweight and lots of people have called me fat. I really dont think of myself as fat, and I know that I need to lose the weight and I am working on it. People should not say things like this they dont know how bad it huts the other person.
