Yes, I have experienced racism. One incident that stands out occurred when I was in high school. I was with a group of friends at a local store, and the security guard followed us around, assuming we were planning to steal something simply because of our appearance. It was uncomfortable and frustrating to feel like I was being judged based on stereotypes rather than on my character. My friends and I ended up leaving the store, and it sparked a conversation about the biases people face every day. It’s an experience that reinforced the importance of understanding and addressing racism in all its forms.
