What its like having a racist friend

In truth I dont think shes really that racist she is a great person and 90% of the time shes great but their is a issue of her constantly making childish racist jokes. She has a Mexican boyfriend she keeps making fun of Mexicans and their life style. I am black and I was drying my clothes and she touchedd them and then after touching them said she felt the need to break dance even though they were just regular clothes.

Shes great but its always constant childish remarks in relation to gender and race. She told me that I have to like spicey food cause I'm black. If I wear a white t shirt I look like a rapper she calls even though I don't like rap. She is good but she makes little comments like this daily. The reason I am not so hard on her about it is because shes a drug addict and I see that as a handicap but these kinds of daily comments are so annoying.

I hope I don't sound sensitive or like a cry baby but its daily. Like I said I feel strange about it because she is a amazing person.

@MasterLee I don't understand your meaning what does woke or liberals have to do with anything? Like I said she is a good person and at heart shes not a racist at all its just her little race jokes are so annoying everyday. I have a sense of humor I can take a joke but when your jokes are so childish and you do it everyday its just strange.

@bushi2020 then why call her a little racist?
bushi2020 · 36-40, M
@MasterLee Its complicated because when you think of racism you think of hate and shes not a hateful person shes actually very caring but she has this childish aspect of her that is annoying. Its to the point that I could never introduce her to friends of mine she doesnt all ready know.

@bushi2020 the term is way overused

@MasterLee It is and its not as bad as the media says it is. America has come a long way in equality for all people still has a ways to go but every generation is better I think.
