Who do I, a person of color, get "dirty looks" of disdain and annoyance, in public all the time from African-Americans--perfect strangers--who will be glaring at me for no reason just as I walk down a street or am on a public bus?
Rarely do white people treat me this way.
Many African-Americans express their feelings quite openly, without constraint, as if to say "You illegal immigrant who is stealing our jobs" or "You coolie."
Yet no one catches them on it.
Isn't it racism not only to judge someone simply on the basis of their physical (racial) identifying features but also to then act out on the basis of prejudice?
