[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah I don't think this is about first gen vs not. It's about racism and whether there are assumptions made based on your appearance, etc.[/quote] My kids who appear white have faced as many direct racist comments here in the DC metro area, as I did growing up one of less than 10 minorities and one of 2 immigrant families in my 1980s high-school in a redneck type community in a middle of flyover country, and many times more than the minority kids of my background who are their friends and peers here in the DC area. People are as rude and as racist as their community allows, and the DC community in general is very accepting and even encouraging of openly racist comments to and around young white people, especially young white males.[/quote]
