I don't think its racist but I do find it a bit offensive.
As an asian american myself I too find that quite offensive. IMO its not racist in that she didn't intend on offending anyone, but that type of humor should still be avoided.
what kind of humor? Making fun of someone's accent? get real.
From your perspective, you don't find that offensive because you don't speak the language and the racial aspect isn't directed at you.
From my perspective, I do find it offensive because I do speak the language and the racial aspect is directed at me.
Its all about perspective.
It's just revealing your inferiority complex, that's all. When I see non-white people make fun of whites, if the joke is funny, I'll laugh. I'm not constantly living in a state of hypersensitivy about my identity. I don't have an inferiority complex.
You need to get over it, as you just sound like a wuss.
White people know nothing of racism because they've never experienced it. Thus, they should STFU when it comes to such issues that they know nothing of. Its like trying to analyse football when you've never played or watched the game.
Nice response. Can't really debate this can you?
If i have to get into to appease YOU i will say I have lived in areas that were predominantly black and i have felt the scorn of racism from those around me.
You want more details? PM me. I don't wish to get into it on this board.
If you honestly believe that you've experienced societal racism from living in a predominantly black neighborhood you're deluding yourself.
Actually I would have to disagree with you on this point. I believe that a white person growing up in a black neighborhood would have experienced societal racism. For me it's about being accepted within your peers and a white person in this situation would have been in a similar position as I was when I was growing up.
