Share some real life racism stories.
I heard a story from a co - worker. She is African - American. When she was looking for an apartment, she had a really difficult time. Some landlords would not even show her the apartment once they saw her face. They made up excuses like it was already rented, but then she found out later that they were still showing it to white people. This is a clear case of housing discrimination which is a form of racism.
A Latino family in my neighborhood once had their car vandalized with racist graffiti. They had just moved in and were trying to be friendly with the neighbors. But some ignorant people in the area didn't like the idea of having a Latino family around. It was a very sad situation. The family was so scared and felt unwelcome. They had to go through the hassle of getting their car repainted and also dealing with the emotional trauma of such a blatant act of racism.
One real - life racism story is about a friend of mine who is Asian. He was waiting in line at a store when an old man behind him muttered some racist slurs about Asians being the cause of all the problems in the country. It was completely unprovoked and just based on his appearance. My friend was shocked and felt very hurt. He tried to confront the man but the man just walked away.

One racism story is about a black student in a predominantly white school. He was constantly singled out by teachers, always being the first to be suspected when something went wrong in the classroom. For example, when a book went missing, the teacher immediately accused him without any evidence, just because of his skin color.
Share some black racism stories.
One story is about a black student in a predominantly white school. He was constantly singled out by teachers for minor infractions that white students often got away with. For example, if he was a few minutes late to class, he'd be sent to detention immediately, while white students would just get a warning. This shows the unfair bias based on race.

What are the most common real life racism stories you've heard?
One common story is about racial profiling in stores. I've heard that black and brown people are often followed around by store security for no reason other than their skin color. It's like they are automatically assumed to be thieves just because of how they look. It's not fair at all.

Share some experiences from BuzzFeed Racism Horror Stories.
There are stories of racial profiling in public places. For example, a person of color was wrongly suspected of stealing in a store just because they fit the 'profile' the store employees had in their minds. They were followed around the store, made to feel uncomfortable and humiliated, all because of racism.
Can you share some examples of racism in school stories?
Well, there are stories where school events show signs of racism. Take prom for example. In a story set in a small - town school, the prom king and queen are always white students, even when students of other races are equally or more popular. This could be because of the underlying racism in the school community. Also, in school sports, there might be discrimination. In a fictional football team story, black players might be given more dangerous or less visible positions compared to white players, based on the coach's racist views. And sometimes, in the school cafeteria, students of different races are made to sit separately, creating a form of segregation.

But through joining a local club that focused on public speaking practice, they gradually got better. They practiced every week, received feedback, and slowly built up their confidence. Eventually, they were able to give a great presentation at work.
