Video: Racist Questions: Racial Microaggressions? - Wilkine Brutus



Wilkine Brutus, a Haitian poet and writer, ask the question 'Racist Questions: Racial Microaggressions?'.

Writer, Kat Chow, recently wrote an article for NPR.

"What's one question you've been dying to ask another race but never do because of the impending 'THAT'S RACIST' aftermath?"

The Code Switch team at NPR was intrigued by this question posted on "AskReddit."

And, so was I. Because little racial micro-aggressions, although subtle most of the times, does eventually cause anger to build up. But when put into context and circumstances, you soon realize how little the human race know about each other. And that's fine, so long as we don't one-up our struggles. I've certainly gotten use to the micro-aggressions in South Korea. What about you? Can you think of any instances? And how did you respond?
