I am part First Nation, but I look white. I have cousins who do not look white, and I can see how my path has been easier than theirs. I do not get stopped by cops for no good reason, they do. I do not get followed around in stores, they do. Nobody questions my getting into university was due to some quota, they do not get that same courtesy. I have never been made to feel unwelcome in my neighbourhood, they have. I am not held responsible for the actions of other white people, nor am I asked to defend the actions of other white people, they are. I can complain about the government without people assuming I am after a handout, they cannot. When I point out that something is racist, I am taken more seriously than they are. If I need a shower and stink, people will assume I need a shower, and not attribute it to my race, they do not get extended that same courtesy. If I have a few drinks and am tipsy people will assume I am out having a little harmless fun, they are seen as alcoholics. In short, I am seen and accepted as "normal", they are not.
