I dont’ know if you’re interested, but here’s some links to what I think is the new face of Racism in Seattle: http://www.king5.com/video/business-index.html?nvid=348309 . Check out the guy at 0:50 who “would be into shipping people back to India for free”, and note how the group thinks it’s so funny. I tried to express my concern, and the group’s organizer just said “he’s just frustrated”. These people just don’t get it. I guess it’s OK if we are merely driving them to and from SeaTac in STITA taxis, and cooking their Tikka Marsala, but if we’re aceing them out for the cubicle jobs they consider their birthright, then it’s “ship the bastards home!”. Look, I got recruited because there arent enough Americans who want to take math and science beyond high school level. We don’t deserve this, and these West Seattle yuppies need to realize that not all racists are driving around in pickup trucks with Confederate flags in the rear window. These are complacent white people who don’t realize they’re racist. http://westseattleblog.com/blog/?p=15410 . Please keep up the good work.
