How Old Were You The First Time You Experienced Actual Racism?

[WYRM]

I was six and my grandmother told me "not to play with colored children" and I said "isn't white a color so aren't we all colored?" I got the switch'n of the century for that. It was a rural area in Tennessee and I was from Miami so most the white/rednecks aren't down with the urban white boy action. So most all my friends in high school were black, not trying to say that makes me cool and shit but the fact is I was accepted and friends with mostly black folk.

For some reason the words coloreds and colors just pisses me right off and I let it be known.

Now racism towards me, yeah when I went to Jr High in Liberty City and Carroll City in Miami.

You took the whipping for all of us. Like that nigga Kunta Kinte.

Take your negro card, you've earned it.

Didn't take a whoopin for no one and didn't say I got beat in Jr. High but you called it, atleast once a week along with getting the shit knocked outta me in the hallways and the after lunch crowd. Nothing can ever earn a white man the "negro card" but thanks for the nomination I guess.

That was a funny ass response Batman, much appreciated, sarcasm and all.

Aren't you Canadian? Maybe you need that negro card more than me, hope it serves you well.
