When I was young, every educator in my life told me to mingle with ppl, to make lots of friends, to learn of diff cultures and most importantly, to not be judgmental
Nevertheless, I was sent to an environment where it is unilateral
When I grew up, I then got my first chance to actually get an insight into the real multiracial society of our country.
I didn't do well at first, because I felt the barriers.........Cultural one and social one
But I managed to make friends though
With a few episodes of quarrel due to misunderstanding and inability to understand other languages.
Later, I got a chance to see the bigger picture of the world. I observed the acceptance and openness ppl hv on differences among individuals. And I saw how this group of ppl with no dominant grew and succeeded in things they were doing.
Then I grew old enough to get into the society. I did particularly well at my workplace.
If there is only one people of my race the other races can remember, I would say at least 70% of them would mention me.
Then I get weird stares, jealous looks from ppl of my race.
Just want to say,
1. I was brought up by great educators ! Thankful for that.
2. Just stop and think for a while. Why the discriminating look? Are you really superior? What makes u so?
3. This SENSITIVE issue will drown us and our future. I am educated in this way to be a person like me because I am extremely lucky. If you are not as lucky as me, why not stop ignoring it by saying it is SENSITIVE? learn abt it now because it will save yours and ur own kids' future.
*DO NOT SEE HOW IT IS SENSITIVE WHEN THE ISSUE IS PLAYED AGAIN AND AGAIN ON MEDIA.*
