My racist mom
I was shocked to discover that my mom is more racist then i previously thought. You know, being the anti-racism activist that i am, i have friends of all skin colours/tones. And my mom bloody well knows that since i was born. Somehow she likes to rub it into our conversation whenever she thinks im being led astray ( eg. coming home before dawn).
Recently shes just been pissing me off a lot. She would just say that im getting from bad to worst, and add something like ive been hanging out too much with my ethnically-diverse friends.
No, if only she uses those terms. She uses terms like "indian friend" and "malay girl" which i find offensive and condescending. I feel like im still stuck living in the Stone Age when i talk to her. She is that narrow-minded.
Ive been ignoring her for a 1-2 days already. Friends over family haha.

I got a sick feeling when this entry gets published i will lose all of my coloured-people friends. :(
