[quote=Anonymous]To the AAs here: How do you know that all of these micro-aggressions are due to your race? There have been many times when people have treated me poorly, for no apparent reason. If I was AA, I feel that I would be tempted to constantly assume that they were doing it because of my race. In my personal life, I almost never hear white people saying racist things in private, but AAs seem to be under the impression that white people are constantly saying racist things when they are not around. I grew up in the South and very rarely heard anything blatantly racist -- again, even when no minorities were around. I don't dispute that some cops are being abusive towards AAs, and that AAs occasionally face discrimination. And I sympathize with the BlackLivesMatter movement. But I also feel that many AAs *vastly* overestimate the amount of racism directed toward them, in modern times, and constantly project racist intentions onto people. [/quote]
