That's awful if they make you feel unwelcome. Are the comments bare faced "we hate you get out" racism or clumsy insensitive statements?
I think a lot of white Scots think of themselves as "not a racist" but conveniently forget that we have a long tradition of bigotry in our culture which is right next to racism on the being-a-dick-in-the-world Venn diagram. Those individuals might not be "racist" themselves but our culture is a soup with bits of jobby floating in it. |
