I've encountered racism many times, though it was usually in the form of "ching-chang-chong", a fairly mild comment. Though a bunch of kids across the road who thought my little brother was alone (he was walking behind me a few feet away) did say that comment, and of course, I flipped. I yelled, "What did you say?! You wanna come here and say it again?!" They, being kids, were frightened shitless, though I was a little disappointed being in a multi-cultural society that this "imitation" of Chinese people still exists, given that they were Black and their parents probably encountered tons of racism before that. Of course their parents are likely to be racist too, and I've encountered many Black adults who are racist - it's almost as if they were dishing all the racism they suffered from before onto Chinese people.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
