If your too sensitive to racial remarks then it makes people want to make them in your presence to get a reaction out of you IMO. |
It works well in theory but in real life it is not easy for a decent self respecting person to pretend as if they didn't hear it. The end result would be nothing but some bruised egos. IMO, speaking out is very important as silence may be taken as sign of weakness and the victim may get abused even more.
