Another Stereotype of the Month entry:
Adding to your list of little things...being ignored in line for pizza, being followed in stores when you have $100.00 at least in your purse/wallet to spend. Asking what does your name mean? Do you have a casino? Do you live in a teepee? Are these all your kids (when hanging out with family)? Why is your kids' skin lighter/darker than yours? Where did you get green eyes? Where did you get freckles? And of course did you see "Dances with Wolves" and didn't you love it that the white people got together?
