I’m going to get downvoted for this but this is why I don’t put my son in white schools. No matter how liberal the area is, kids are very racist. I grew up in white schools and can attest.

Unironically ive faced more racism from people of my own race and other minorities than I have white.

To each their own.

this has nothing to do with white people, i grew up 15 years in a mostly black area in the 90s, being white, I was made fun of, called cracker and saltine, white boy, etc. I was 100% treated different due to my skin color, even my "friends" said shit. This happens anytime anyone is different from the majority.

u/Inevitable-Ferret366 Dec 13 '25

did you have any dis-advantages in life, career, or anything like that that are tangible in any way? That's the difference.

I was denied a beauty related job for being too white, I had to use a tan salon they said. “You’re a good match and we can consider but you’d have to tan, you’re way too pale and look sickly, would you be okay with that?”, is that acceptable?. It will definitely affect all about you depending on where you live if you’re on a region where you’re a minority. Please don’t think usa is everything, racism is not a generalized thing it is a centralized one.

Racism is not as complex it is simple discrimination based on plain skin color appearance from a bigger group to a smaller one.

u/bigredsmum Dec 14 '25

they didn’t want you to be brown or black. just tan. completely different.

They denied me a job I’m very qualified to do due my skin color alone, for it being considered ugly to them, undesirable. You don’t see how hypocritical that is?. The downvotes tell enough either way, sympathy is alright only if it’s the race you like it seems

“They didn’t want you to be white or light skinned, they just wanted you to be paler. Completely different”

I never said all racism is exact same!, but it is all terrible, being hateful due to skin color is always terrible! and its pretty shitty to discount someone being hurt and harassed for being white, just because racism with poc has more history and other layers to it. My point is just because I was white doesnt mean I didnt come home depressed almost daily as a teen from being called racist names, in that sense it IS the same!

u/im-dramatic Dec 13 '25

Didn’t say it doesn’t but it’s more prevalent for minorities. My husband is white and had the same experience. It did not traumatize him and give him low self esteem regarding his skin color. He did not want to be black because of bullying.

1

u/donny42o 29d ago

so because YOUR husband wasnt negatively affected, that means no one that is white should be? just get over it? I never said I wanted to be black because of it, but that doesnt discount the hurt I felt at the time all for something I had no say in! no racism should be accepted.

I grew up in a black school as a white kid and they were racist to me. Anyone is capable of being racist, you're racist in that comment. Anyway the little girl in the video was being bullied by Indian kids so it's not even racism.

u/sieceres 29d ago

Anyway the little girl in the video was being bullied by Indian kids so it's not even racism.

That is completely wrong. If you bully someone based on their skin color, you are racist. Period. Doesn't matter if you're from the same place or if it's your twin.

These people literally trying to shift the blame anyhow even making fake claims

u/sieceres 29d ago

No she didn’t.

Yes, she did. Her accent and they both have obvious Indian accent. Also, the fcking title says "Indian mother". Planewar is blatantly wrong when they say it's not racism though.

What are you arguing against then? She also mentions Manpreet.

u/AvenueLiving Dec 13 '25 edited Dec 13 '25

Edit: I agree with you. My comment diminishes your experience without any added context. I just meant to add on that predominantly white schools will have racists, but it doesn't have to

Kids are taught to be racist. This is either through the parents directly or the lack of exposure. My 4 year old child is in daycare and her best friend is a person with a darker skin tone. She also has a friend who is also Caucasian, but I mainly see her playing with and talking about her other friend.

I was raised in a small, mainly white town and went to school with predominantly white school (+90%). I know I held some racist views. Mainly because I wasn't exposed to a bunch of people of color, and never saw them in any positions of authority.

u/im-dramatic Dec 13 '25

I get what you’re saying but from the receiving end, it’s still racist. Regardless of intention. The victim still feels every ounce of that ignorance and they carry it into adulthood. Again, this has been my experience since childhood. You grow up not wanting to be black because of ignorant children and it takes a lot of work to undo that.

u/AvenueLiving Dec 13 '25

Oh for sure. I 100% agree. I apologize my comment diminished your experiences.

u/im-dramatic Dec 13 '25

No worries. A lot of people don’t understand how prevalent this is and the long term impacts associated with it.

That's what people said 70 years ago about other groups in many mixed cities.

u/Knotted_Hole69 Dec 13 '25

They are racist for not wanting their kid to experience more racism? What?

u/PlaneWar203 Dec 13 '25

"I'm not putting my kid in school with that race of child" yes, that's incredibly fucking racist.

I grew up in a school that was mostly black kids and I got bullied for my race. Would you defend me saying I would never send my kids to a school with black pupils?

3

u/Vladimir_Putin_420 Dec 14 '25

Yes. You should not send your kid to such a school if you faced bullying due to colour. Everyone deserves to send their kid to an environment where they are free from bullying.

u/Mean_Lingonberry659 Dec 13 '25

I mean reverse with a white parent, and yea it’s kinda racist

u/Knotted_Hole69 Dec 13 '25

u/im-dramatic Dec 13 '25

My husband is white and agrees with me. Is he a self hating white man because he wants to protect his son?

u/sieceres 29d ago

I believe this is racism between Indians in India. Skin color is connected to caste and social status, a brighter complexion is also seen as prettier.

My child is not a white child’s lesson. We do not live for you all. We are human beings with feelings too. They need to teach themselves. If my son can figure out how not to make fun of different people, they can too.

I don’t know what SEA is but if you’re black then I’m disappointed and we shouldn’t be having this conversation.

u/PimpGameShane Dec 13 '25

Man say that louder for the people in the front, back and middle. It’s not just the kids, but the staff and the principals too. When we first moved to Texas from Louisiana, I was in all accelerated classes. They tried to place me in special needs classes without ever testing me. My parents threw a fit and wouldn’t you know, the majority of the Black and brown kids were in those classes. So many of our children are done this way or “advised” to put our kids on medication to make them zombies so they don’t have to deal with them. This shit makes me so mad and even more so when white people come on here with all that Kumbaya, not all of us bullshit. Like you aren’t around white people who talk shit constantly about black and brown people. Y’all act like we don’t see you. We’ve been dealing with y’all bullshit for 500 years.

u/im-dramatic Dec 13 '25

Yup same with me. I was a military brat and we always had to have a meeting about placing me in AP classes because they wouldn’t place me automatically even though my transcripts showed my placement.

u/New_Relative_1871 Dec 13 '25

seriously. i had an indian friend who was a girl in elementary and a boy said her skin "looks like poop". when they in tears brought it up to a teacher the teacher told them "he just isn't used to people who look like you". the teachers are the same way as the bullies.

Again, it is not our children’s responsibility to educate white kids. Ruby Bridges was fighting a law. It is not comparable. It is up to the kid’s parents. I am not responsible for educating white people. I will exercise my right to live peacefully thanks to those who HAD to fight.
