And racism isn't all that bad down here at all.

Pretty bad. Especially now what with Obama and everything. Can't stand it.

edit: WHOA
MISREAD

Ugh, it's bad here.
Especially against Mexicans and Indians.
I live in New Jersey.

Eh, it's iffy. If a white chick dates a black dude, everyone starts to think she's a slut. None of the racism is open, though.

Oh, there's plenty of racism.  But it's that suburbian kind of racism that's really subtle and hard to pick up on unless you know what to look for...


-- Posted by ElizabethCox at 8:06 pm on Jan. 10, 2009

It's not bad here, but then again there's only like 3 black people in my school.

How is it possible to be a lesbian male?

Not bad at all.

Tbh if anyone was SERIOUSLY racist, they'd probably get beaten or shunned? :x

LOL so i might be seeing you soon.

Not bad at all.  There are like NO black people here.  I only know one; I think I may have seen like three others at one time or another.  There's not enough of them to be oppressed.

Not bad at all, and St. Louis, Mo.

It really depends where you live.

When I lived in western PA it was all "Fuck niggers!"

But now I live in uber liberal maryland where noone is racist at all

Most ppl are cool and nonracist. Some are bad and racist.


-- Posted by Expando1 at 9:26 pm on Jan. 10, 2009

it exists in different regions with varying prevalences
often those who practice it the most have no insight that they are racist.
they just accept their views and behaviors and a norm because that's what their parents did or what everyone in the community like them does.
