week 3 assignment

the authors purpose for writing the article was to show how some are treated differently because of their skin color.

One time when I was in a diner a white person asked me for a glass of water. I was confused and then he said "Are'nt you one of the bus boys?". I was offended and walked away. I get that reaction a lot from white people a lot. I am white but most think i am from spanish decent. Another time in a diner one of the workers asked me "Hey, you one of da new guys?". I laughed and walked away. I find it funny but also scary at the same time that people can be so ignorant sometimes
