Sadly enough thrers nothing you can do at this point except be proud of who you are. If someone has to make fun of sombodys race, then they probably arn't happy with theirs. Just be confident with yourself, and try to make it look like you dont care what ppl say, and maybe itll make it stop a little bit at least. good luck ;)

I totally agree with you. In fact, I'm finding that some of the most racist people I meet are not white! Shows how much the times have changed.
My grandmother was telling me a story recently, of an African-American friend she had when my stepmom was about 2 years old. My stepmom took to this woman right away, and without even knowing her, climbed up into her lap when she was visiting, one day. This woman was taken aback, and asked my grandma why my stepmom wasn't reacting to her skin color--I absolutely LOVE my grandmother's answer to her friend. She said:
"Racism is not in my daughter's heart--it's in yours".
I love all people, and I, too, agree that Jesus desires for every single one of us to be treated equally in one another's eyes. I wish that racism would just "go away" once and for all!

You are so right, Jesus did teach us the right thing to do, so don't give in. I suggest you pray, prayer is very powerful and don't expect an answer right away, remember God answers prayers 3 ways, YES, NO & WAIT. This might very well be a test of faith.
Hang in there.

Try not to let it get you down! Kids are so mean and hateful these days! You know that no one is any better because of their race, I know its hard but try and ignore it and hang out with your friends. If someone threatens or trys to hurt you tell someone! Good Luck!

OMG - this makes me so sad - when I was growing up it everything was divided into groups, ie: stoners, jocks, brains, and richies.....the problem was I was in every group, and confronted in the bathroom as to which I was to conform to. I chose to be friends with whomever I preferred - it was terrible! Honey, hang in there and don't compromise your beliefs - I don't know your heritage, but believe it or not I was one tall pretty, brainy white girl, I got beat up, ostracized, etc....
Please don't compromise.........within 5 years these people won't mean squat to you.
Stay with your religious beliefs.....don't succumb to the hateful .
It will pay off in the end.
My prayers go out to you.

Ok why don't you go to an adult and tell them these kids are passing racial comments to you or about you or if it's in a school go to the principle.

just ignore then usually people are racist because they are truly ignorant so I would just thing of them as special needs people or mentally ill..what ever you want to call it, just don;t let them get to you if you do them they are wining and they are getting what they want, don;t sink down to their level by letting it get to you, clearly you are a much better person than that so just blow it off.
GOOD LUCK !

you need to say something! Do not stand for that! Racism is one of the most disgusting things ever! If you cannot go up to them, then you need to try and ignore them and be yourself and have friends with whomever you wish!

i know right? i hate racism...i get it all the time. i try not to let it get to me. racists have no significance to how i run my life. what they need to do is stop worrying about colors of skin and worry about thier own pathetic sad lives.
