[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a thread about racism. Not on white-on-white hate.[/quote]

This PP is right. And I'm saddened that some of your kids are experiencing this. As a white parent, I am just reading for my own education. I would like to be more aware of what Asian kids are experiencing so that I can help education my white child be more aware so that he can be an ally.[/quote]

NP. I appreciate this. 
There is a lot of curiosity that hurts feelings like “why are your eyes shaped like that” or “your skin is weird”. There are a lot of kids who don’t know the different Asian countries and call people “Chinesey”. There are kids that think my kids eat dogs and cats. There are kids that think Asians aren’t real Americans. [/quote]

I agree that this is still a huge issue, but honestly is that happening much in Fairfax? I can't picture how someone could live and work in this community and not know that not all Asian people are Chinese. I mean how dense would these people have to be to be literally surrounded by the food and people in our community and not just absorb that knowledge. SMH at how dumb some people must be[/quote]
