everywhere is racist, sometimes it's best just to laugh at the idiots and hang out with non-racists.
but when i talk to (older, non white) members of my own family i just have to smile and change the subject if they start coming out with racist stuff cos i can't bear it and you can't change their mind with reasoning so there's no point getting into an argument.
but if a friend of a friend tells a racist joke at the pub i'm not afraid to be the killjoy who says "i don't find racist jokes funny." these people have to be told publically that it's not socially acceptable. they might just think again before telling the joke next time.
- So true about older members of the fam. My family does the same, and there's no winning.Jaline
