Yes , in many ways it is . There are many stereotypes I have to deal with in my daily life .

Well , like since I'm black , I must like rap music , come from the inner city , or play basketball well .

I do know you like rap music , but the other two are definitely false . I ’ Ve seen you play basketball .

Hey ! But that's not the only problem . There's also the affirmative action stigma .

You mean that people look down upon you because they think you're in school because of a quota ? That's not true at all , you're really a smart guy .

I know that , but some people don't think like that . And I get problems from teachers as well .

Teachers ? I didn't think that they would be racist at all .

Racist ? Not exactly . It's how they look at me and ask for my opinion on a topic , as if I can speak for all black people and give them the black opinion on a subject . Suddenly I become the representative of the black race , as if we all had the same opinion .
