It's just so pathetic that we are living in the 2020's and the color of a person's skin is still such a issue for so many people.

Change is so painfully slow. I really feel that it will take the boomer generation dying out before any meaningful progress is made.

A lot of it is cultural and does/will get better in time. But there's always going to be pockets of these people unfortunately. My wife is from Asia and sadly the verbal racism is mostly from young people. I guess they just find it funny amongst their friends.
