My mom and I got asked an interesting question yesterday GAF and it was from my little sister who's in sixth grade.
Apparently while she was in school yesterday a classmate went up to her asked if she was an immigrant?" My sister asked us "is it racist?" for her to have been asked that question. My mom answered no and I thought about it and said the same thing for some strange reason. I feel like I might have given her the wrong answer though and it's kind of been looming in my head ever since.
What would you have done/said GAF had your child/brother/sister asked you that question???
I'd like to note that my siblings and I are Salvadoran-American while my parents are Salvadoran. The kid who asked her that question is White.
