The facts derived from one trip you took down I-75. LOL at you calling me a kid, I'm 40 years old, a grown ass man, while you are a snot nosed 22 year old who took a road trip. I have been in Boston area many times. I have also known and worked with many people there. I also have a sister who has lived there for 10 years. Her fiancé is multi-generational Portuguese-American. You should have seen his face when I drove him through poor black parts of town when they visited, LOL. He's a typical young white lefty who talks about poverty but hasn't seen much of it. One of my best friends is Gujarati and earned his Masters in Computer Science from UMass 10 years ago. Another woman I worked with and had many candid discussions on local race relations is also Portuguese, married to a French-Canadian, and a self-described Masshole who moved to New Hampshire. You're here generalizing your parents' homeland based on some flimsy experiences or something you read on the Internet. I'm more inclined to believe what Malcolm Z says about how Japanese Brazilians are treated, since he is one, and he lives there. I hope he posts on this thread. You're a young opinionated Yankee American tourist. Since I can see how weak your southern US stereotypes are, I expect the same is true of your Brazilian ones.
