How real is the rascism ?

[Lupie]

I think it has a lot to do with fitting in. If you are going to come in and act like your poo doesn't stink... Then you aren't going to fit in. If you come in and want to change the way things are/how they work then you won't fit in.
I've never had a problem. I'm not saying racism doesn't exist... I think it exists everywhere. There are always going to be people that are just ignorant.
Though I also think part of the problem is (like Bananahead was saying) if someone is going to act like they are afraid that every Hawaiian/local is going to treat them badly, so they won't even give that person a chance... Good luck, but you would get that from any person or group if you treated them that way.
Treat others as you wish to be treated and you won't have a problem.
