And if you can I'm sure they have it at your local public library, give them call and ask if they have the film "the color of fear" by Lee Mun Wah. Here are some excerpts from the film:
"What is presented to me as an American does not look like me, does not think like me, does not smell like me, does not cry like me, does not play like me. To name ‘American’ as my primary identity would be to deny most of who I am."
--Roberto, Chicano
"You’re not allowed to be a black man in corporate America. If you walk through halls with some pride, you’re going to scare some people. You’ve got to shuffle. It’s a 1990’s shuffle, but it’s still a shuffle."
--Loren, African American
"White people don’t talk about themselves as white people. They talk about themselves as human beings, as if it means the same thing. What I want to know is, what does it mean to be a white person? Doesn’t it seem kind of deep to you that you don’t have an answer to that question?"
--Victor, African American
"I’m so tired of hearing about how bad people of color have it."
