Even when you think you know somebody as being someone who strives to end discrimination, you don't. Someone I know the other day said something about the Chinese that I thought he would never say. One of my other friends was talking in an Asian accent and my friend said "(Insert name here) you're not talking right because I can understand you too well." It leads to the question, is everyone a little bit racist? My belief is that this is true. I don't think that there is anyone on the Earth that could say (without lying) that they have never had a racist thought, even a tiny one. It is ingrained in our heads, whether through parents or pop culture. And no matter who tries to stop it, no one can stop every racist thought that passes though the human mind.
