June talks about racism in India:
Linked by kuffir. Join Blogbharti facebook group.In Bombay, racism manifested itself in ‘CHINA’ carved on my door- this in the posh Pali Hill neighbourhood, home to the rich and famous. At business meetings, people would ignore me and talk to my assistants, on realisation that I was the boss, their faces would first drop with surprise and then turn red with embarrassment. ( This part I enjoyed – a lot!)
Hi Kuffir, thank you for the link.This was a cery personal post and I hope it is not mistaken as a representation most people from the northeast. Here is another post I had written that you might like. http://shetalkslikejune.com/?p=689

it was a great post:) yes i understand it’s a personal post and i’m sure most of our readers would do too. but it raised some issues that need to be discussed more, in my view.
