Your Experiences With Racism

[Obvious Li]

In my time living in Korea and traveling all over Asia (and wearing a suit) i have been refused entry, service or thrown out of the following establishments (because i was a "white devil")(their words not mine):on many many occasions..



Hotels

Restaurants

Bars

Nightclubs

Swimming Pools

Saunas

Casino

Health Clubs

Hooker Joints

Hookers (mostly japan)

Taxis to numerous to mention



i was refused being allowed to give blood to help an employee who was dying of cancer....i pushed the hospital "forcefully" as to why not...when they ran our of silly reasons (residency,passport,visa etc.) the head nurse finally admitted it was because "i would taint the pure blood of the Korean race"...what a crock of bullshit....from a trained professional.......and this was in 2005



 i'm sure i missed some......the thing is, i knew it was because they mostly thought i was an "american" ...doesn't excuse it but i understood why and shrugged it off...after all almost everyone, including me, hates what the Americans do around the world.........the only thing that bothers me is that in all that time and dozens of instances on only one occasion did one of my traveling companions raise objections and try and change their minds...and he was a Korean from Edmonton who had lived in Canada for 30 years.....that was puzzling, it seemed like it is just taken for granted that it was ok.....and truthfully, being a libertarian i firmly believe a  business owner has the right to serve (or not) who they want and for whatever reason....case closed.



i am not bitter in the least and hold no animosity to anyone over there...i merely write this as a kind of shot at the people who think white Canadians are racist monsters......i lol at that....there are certainly a few ignorant rednecks but overt racism is extremely rare here. In fact Canada, in general, bends over backwards to protect and promote minorities and newcomers....thus endeth the lesson.

Amen brothers and sisters.

You are the Gweilo, so did you think you would be welcomed with open arms?

[Gary Oak]

Should we allow people to enter Canada who refer to us as GWAILO ?

What a tasteless and tacky thing to do..



I remember as a child some nasty kids pulling their eyes back like that.



That always bothered me.

Not all white people do that Time Flies and not all Asians would assume such a silly thing.

Sorry for what you went through Fashionista, or anyone else, people can be so cruel, and ignorant.

I had a year of racial slurs, and threats in school toward me, and other kids that was bussed to an all black school.

First day I got there not even off the buss we was getting rocks thrown at the buses, and threats.

One kid on another buss was hurt, and took to a hospital.

I got in a few fights there, but learned to be tough showing I wasn't a pushover.

I hold no hate towards black people, but do feel sorry for many that couldn't get over someones color, pretty sad person.

[Frost]

I have seen it from both sides, in my high school you had racial fights on occasion between blacks, and whites.

Most the students would go to class while the rest got into it.

We had one person stabbed, and two tossed out windows that I remember. The tension was made worse with KKK organizers out on the street corner.

I'm sure glad that don't happen much anymore here, I hated seeing stuff like that happening.

I got caught up in one of the fights, and ended up just hitting anyone that came close to me just to get to class. Useless stupid violence.

[Frost]

I had a Korean American friend, and Philippine American friend growing up, really good guys, but they got teased a lot. :(

Not much with me around, but they did, and I saw it a few times from a distance, and told about it.

The Korean one didn't take it well, it bothered me a lot knowing it. The Philippine one took it made fun back, and usually laugher it off.

I did get in a few fights over it, hate that stuff, and still do.



Yeah sounds like a movie, but normal stuff here years ago, and my school was a more peaceful one.

I think it was one a few kids got stabbed now, and then on a regular bases.

I am speechlees Blue..where did you go to high school?

[Frost]

I went to school here in Louisville Kentucky, it's a bit better now since my school years.

Still there, but more in hiding is my guess.

I was friends with a purple dragons son till I found out who they was, and how he was growing up, that's a high up Klan member.



Hey something funny, one of the black students my Junior year, a big guy, and a cut up he went out grabbed some of the Klan literature off their table.

Well he walked out in the intersection, and started passing it out with them    they looked so scared him being out there, and everyone in the school was laughing.

He was big as a small car so they couldn't say anything.

That is different from anything I ever experienced Blue.



We had gangs and drugs of course, but thankfully no KKK types.

[Frost]

We had a few gang members, and plenty of drugs going around, but mostly just the few that made things rough.

I tried my best to keep nice, and quiet, but got in a lot of fights taking up for others that was picked on.

Just a slap on the back of a bullies head was usually enough to get them to stop.
