You turn to him and ask him what he means by "people like me".
He says, "you know what I mean. People who look like you. People whose parents don't speak english. People who aren't white".
You reply with, "what does that have to do with anything? Why should that matter at all? And why does that even concern you? Because it shouldn't, it shouldn't matter to you at all. And I hope one day you can realize that. There is a lot more to a person than the color of their skin. At the end of the day when we all die we all look the same so my skin color shouldn't make a difference. I pray that one day you can realize that".
You said all you needed and felt very proud of yourself. He never bothered you again.
