Don't follow your initial emotional response
• If you're getting worked up you only suffer high blood pressure and stress.
• Remember that they might be less enlightened and tolerant than you are. They might not
even know that their comment or action is racist.
• Anger is a weapon only to one's opponent.
• People's ability to convince themselves they're not racist is astounding (“I'm not racist,
but…”).
•Be a role model to others .By showing others that you don't tolerate hatred, you encourage
others to do the same. Treating others with respect sends the message that no one should
be treated unfairly or differently because of who they are. Tell people that you won't let
your heritage determine who you are or how you live your life.
