India indian. I would never refer to a native american as an indian. Too confusing.
We were staying in a hotel room, and our key became inactive. Next door the couple that were staying there were outside of their room, smoking. The guy left. My mom was at disneyland with my little sister and me and my dad were getting something. So my dad went over to the lady on our left who was smoking and asked if he could use her phone for a second. She gave him this patronizing, condescending look and said, "i wouldn't feel safe having you in this room when my husband isn't here." and my dad, who's usually used to the racism thing and doens't let it bother him, was really frusterated because he had no way of contacting my mom and telling her that we wouldn't be back for a while and he said, "i udnerstand that you don't know me, but would you feel more comfortable if my daughter was here?" and he motioned to me and I came closer, and she gave me this look, and she she kind of smirked and said, "well, isn't that nice. Like father like daughter." and my dad kind of said, "please? This is really important, our door is locked," and she glared at him and said, "don't raise your voice to me. Who do you think you are?" and so my dad just gave up and went to the elevator to get the front desk people, and I waited by our door (fuming, nevertheless), and the lady's husband came back and he was like, "what happened?" and she said something obviously derogatory and her husband looked over and glared at me.
I think that being racist is ridiculous. I saw this thing on jerry springer...There was this woman who had a baby who desperately needed an organ transplant, and the baby had a chance to get one, but the mother wouldn't let the doctor's operate because the organ had come from a black person. And the baby died!!!! I was so horrified, I was in a trance for the rest of the day. Can you imagine that??
