Some people are just racial sensitive; they just thought that every talking topic might related to their color skins, or their racial status. Sometimes, people don't really mean that. For instance, in an interview, a interviewer ask a black person if he has any criminal background, he might jump up and said "Am I criminal? because I am black?" He just misinterpreted the meaning of the question. Don't you ever encountered such person in life?

I haven't encountered these kinds of people but I guess it's ingrained into the black person to assume he was being discriminated against given the history of his race. Even now, black discrimination isn't completely gone though it is largely not tolerated. In cases like you mentioned, the interviewer could have just rephrased the question in a better manner.

No, I never encouuntered such person. At the same time, I don't think the colour of the skin is really a question. We have no right to choose our colour. Everyone is equal in this question. Also, as a black, you have not to be so much sensitive. You and me, from one world, we are family. ~~hehe~
