Sorry to hear how this affects you. I hope you can heal and know that you are much better and more blessed than the haters! Racial abuse especially as a child and teenager is very traumatic, so I understand exactly what you're saying, I'm a beautiful blessed African female went to all white school growing up.
Racism everywhere, so bloody cruel. I knew a guy from Uganda who said he saw first hand how a bunch of African kids almost killed 2 albino kids in his town. He sad the saddest part was that the kids who attacked the albino boys were encouraged by the elders. Racial sickness in all humans.
Thank you so much for sharing your story that many of us can relate to. It's so important to bring awareness to all aspects of the impact that this ongoing issue has had in the lives of many immigrant families (mine included).
As a person of Asian descent and as a parent I agree with the speaker that open conversations are needed. Thank you for this talk. However, to be honest I still struggle on what specifically you can say to prepare your children for racism. Ignore those people? Run fomthe bullies? Stand up for yourself and perhaps prepare to get bullied again or silenced by your teachers? Leave school/work/the city? Create support groups at your school? Volunteer? Pray/meditate for those feeling fear-induced hatred or perhaps being lead from too much ignorance, peer pressure and even suffering in their hearts? I don’t really know what the answer is but figuring this out every day is very hard, exhausting and at times even terrifying. ~~Honestly, even for me at this age, and with my kids already grown up, I struggle with my own internal dialogue on how to prepare myself and figure out how to deal with discrimination and micro aggressions everyday. I sometimes wonder if I should say something and stand up to racism at the risk of being judged (which includes self-judgement) as being “too sensitive”. I agree that staying silent is not the answer at all, but unfortunately, the prevalence of racism is such in our society, that the fear to break that silence is at times too big. ~~ A couple of years ago, I started to see a lot of inclusive messages that talk about love and tolerance start to proliferate on people’s front yards or bumper stickers, and even though I appreciate them, I don’t know if that is enough. I agree with the speaker that we should have conversations about this and I guess that’s exactly what we’re doing here. But I also think it should not be only the work of parents of children of color or people of color to prepare them (or themselves as adults) on how to deal with racism. I think there is a lot of work that everyone needs to do, so that society as a whole heals. We’re all in this together and even if someone has been fortunate enough to not have been or continue to be a direct victim of racism, all of us end being affected by it by living in a society that continues to perpetuate it. I don’t have answers obviously, just a lot of questions, and the certainty that I’m sure most of those here share that something needs to change. And again, perhaps it can start with honest conversations where we all participate and listen, no matter how uncomfortable this may be.
I think its helpful to have a community. My school was about half white and half asian back in the late 80's. The asian kids had their own community to feel part of so I don't think it was a big issue. I have some cousins who went to an almost all Hispanic kids and the kids all harassed them for being white. Kids will pick on anyone who is different. Now a burning cross on the front lawn is not normal bullying or cultural insensitivity, I'm not equating the two.
If you haven't experience racial trauma THEN THIS ISN'T FOR YOU! YOUR OPINION DOESN'T NEED TO BE HEARD! There are people seeking to heal from their own pains and are finding ways to better themselves and these videos help those people, not for you to invalidate their experiences!!
I've lived in a white neighborhood my whole life, and this neighborhood is not friendly to me. I just turned 18 recently.... I've asked my dad to take me away from here, and I'm waiting to hear back from him😭
Honestly I believe because I have seen people around my neighborhood that actually gets 70k per month trading with a broker, thanks for the info dude am happy that I came across this information. You are best keep the good work going, I will get in touch with Mrs Charlotte ASAP and begin my investment and trading journey with her platform…
Upon my viewing, there are 221 people that have likes. If those 221 will teach/speak to their own children and those in their families, churches, and communities about this problem otherwise, we invite curses upon our own. According to the scriptures, what is being done to others will be done to those who are participants, in thought, words, or deeds. Matt.7:12 Gal 6:7 Esther 9:12-14 many other places...
Are you sure there is no trauma, when you mix people and nationalities ? Are you mixing wars and soccer ? Damn, and I was the one who was accused of being schizo.
Bahahaha. China only exists because the blanket of naval security the US provides to the world order. China only exist because wall street and the White House sold out America. They are learning really quick. The US should cut off their oil and grain imports and starve them out.
Agreed. All of our ancestors had it WAY worse, and we're crying and complaining with the best living standards in all of history. People need to get it TOGETHER.

Avoiding racial trauma isn’t easy at all. Even when i walked to the gas station not provoking anyone, me and my friends still get told to “go back to Africa” for no reason.
Very succinct and vulnerable talk. In the end everyone is only trying to heal.

Thank you so much for talking about that topic! I can relate so much. This is still not being taken seriously enough.
The teachers in my primary school in England would make the ethnic minority children play rats in the Nativity play. Some adults are terrible.
Thank you for sharing your story, Rich, and for the lifetime of powerful work that has followed.

I love this topic thank you. We need this awareness. I send this lecture to my son.
I so appreciate you!
We need more of this!!!

Parents hope the majority of racism will be gone when they grow up, but it'll take more generations than anyone thought
Thank you!

Words alone don't heal, actions and restitutions do.
Crypto is a scam that the government can shutdown anytime they feel like it.

Multiculturalism is Cultural genocide
Stop running

this is so true, because there's absolutely no racism in asia :(
Never forget China is a first world country with modern cities 3x the size of NYC. Trust and believe they don't have to be here.

“Alexa, Google hate crimes against Asians by ethnicity of the perpetrator”
Asian hate crimes are a hoax, fake hate crimes. More Asians are attacked by Asians than non Asians.
U talking about the 13 percent
The world today is the most pathetic ever. Everyone is just crying and crumbling into a ball and pointing fingers.

Get woke go broke. This is a masterclass in how to be a victim. SMH.
Diversity= cultural genocide
Avoiding racial trauma is easy. Don't be obsessed with your race.
Sometimes other people are obsessed with your race though, and show it.
I got a better solution, a different race for every place stop pushing diversity

1979?!?How many time did he tell this story in his life after 1979. It defines his life. It’s time to “Barack”.
Victim mentality.
