I witnessed my first r acism the other day.
Of course I knew it was a real thing.
Because I know people who mock other races behind their back.
But I have never in my life seen it right towards their face.
I was at a restaurant (?) with my best friend, just wanting to eat our dinner.
A group of white pret-teens walked in minutes after us.
We ordered our food, and soon they did too.
Twenty of so minutes in, a group of pre-teen black kids walk in.
They go about their business, order their food, when all of a sudden, I hear:
"Hey, ni.ggas! We don't want you hear," and the white boy flipped him off.
They all continued this throughout the night.
The black kids, fought back, but we obviously a little hurt, they had done nothing wrong.
To be honest, in that moment, I swear I have never been so ashamed to be a white American.
And I am so, so f.cking sorry.
