RE: How I Saved a Man’s Life (A Personal Story Involving Racial Acceptance)
I have found that racism/classism lives more often in imagination than in practice. People tend to see actions, just like you saw their actions in dressing differently and flashing guns to make your judgement, they saw your actions to make their judgement. That doesn't mean they didn't judge you differently before you took those heroic actions as you perhaps judged them differently before they showed friendliness towards you.
I have never met anyone who dislikes another race just for the gigs. They always dislike another based on what the other person/group does or what they think the other person does.
Thats a good take on it. Thank you for input. I have witnessed all sorts of racism because i tend to associate with a diverse set of groups. And it typically is from assumptions rather than personal actions.
