A new acquaintance of mine thinks it's funny to call me racial slurs and constantly bring up my race, and I'm supposed to just keep my mouth shut about it. It doesn't offend me as much as it's just annoying and cringeworthy.

im not sure if this was racially motivated or not, but i kinda feel it was. it was the day after George Floyd was murdered in Minneapolis, and riots were going strong and i hadnt heard about it yet.
long story short, i got stranded somewhere unfamiliar and i found a bus station and asked a black guy (im a white guy) if i was going the right way and he just spit on the ground directly in-between my feet, looked hard at me, then looked away and didnt say a word.

maybe he was just having a bad day, maybe he was going thru some darkness idk...but it didnt feel good and i left immediately

The closest thing I've ever experienced is other Puerto Ricans being disappointed that I don't speak Spanish.

My father is from Puerto Rico. But since we're both white, no one can even tell from just a glance. And contrary to what some seem to believe, there is NOT any widespread discrimination against the white straight male.

Why do people always say "white straight male"? Gay white men have some ridiculous issues with racism.

Racism no. But homophobia runs rampant at my job.
