Racial slur still pains me
It has been a while since the racial slur occurred. Yet the incident still continues to torment my days. There are times that I find myself staring blankly at the PC monitor and thinking about the racial discrimination I got because I ordered coffee mocha.
Forgetting is not easy since the incident happened in a place that I am starting to call home.

But this one in Brookings may take months to heal.
