    In Europe at least where I'm from you must get there first on your own merit and then if you are a person from poor family, disabled, etc. you can get some money from university.

    We have a loan system here for education, for everyone that wants/needs it.

    You can pay it back over the course of 15 years which is very doable.

    If you’re Black or Hispanic, you’re the classic boogie man. You go into a store, you’re getting harassed/followed around by security. You walk the streets, women clutch their purses tight or switch their bags from one hand to the other to keep it away from you. I personally haven’t had any real run-ins with cops, but I’ve known plenty of people who have been stopped by cops at gunpoint simply because they match some random description. I have yet to experience someone saying something overtly racist to me in the streets but some of the other things I have experienced.

    I’m white but I have a best friend who is black, and I’ve been out with him doing s--- just walking around town or whatever and cops have come up and started harassing him and giving him a hard time about s---, when i was doing the exact same thing and they never even would say a thing to me.
    And I’ve seen the looks people give and muttered remarks they make when they see him. The south is so f---ing racists man.

    I am white, and during Christmas time 2 years ago I went to Prague with my ex girlfriend (who is also white) and we visited a church and there was this priest that spoke spanish and showed everyone around while telling us about the history of that place. At one point my ex started to speak back in spanish and he said "ooo you speak spanish where you from?" and she said "Romania" and that mother f---er reacted so wild, he started yelling at us and telling us to leave cause we're thieves and s--- like that. I was feeling so angry that I tried to beat his a--- right there in the church but my ex stopped me and both of us got kicked out.

    The first solidly racist moment I remember was being harassed for my brown skin in third grade. This was around the time of 9/11 and my home state was particularly vengeful. Not being Arab or Muslim, I was genuinely confused and had a long talk with my parents about race relations in America. Times haven't changed much since then.
