Sure, fair point. In certain places, it might actually be harder to be white, even.

That’s just a general statement on my side, a kind of example.

Oh, me, me! I’m based in the US, but here are a few 🤗

• It’s harder for us to get loans for businesses. Most financial services are either harder or more expensive (Ex: You live in the hood and want to start a business, the area you’re in is “coded” a certain way, and you get higher loan rates because they assume you to be more risky by default)
• A lot of POC are behind in generational wealth/security because they were barred from communities and businesses that could have been passed down
• We are paid less
• Neighborhoods with high POC population usually get less funding
• Less political power because of how the counties were purposely broken up, so our voices aren’t heard as loudly
• Racial profiling
• We are more likely to get arrested, and serve harsher sentences
• Until recently (and still in some places), natural kinky hair had to be “fixed.”
• Colorism
• People with heavy accents (not limited to Hispanics of course) can have a harder time at jobs, especially if they’re phone base as people can be mad disrespectful
• In our current political environment, Latin Americans are the target of a lot of vitriol, illegal or not
• I can’t speak for Latin Americans, but when traveling, Black people have to worry about different things like: Are they racist? If so, how much? Will they let me in businesses? If I’m going for work, will they let me? If I’m not rich, will I still be treated well? We can’t just go back packing, because many countries will not be hospitable, either due to race, skin color, or both
• Being spoken too in slang because they assume that’s how you talk
• For hobbies, cosplay. POC are routinely dragged for not being the right color or what have you
• For kids, they are seen as older and more dangerous than other non-POC their age and therefore are treated harsher
• “Don’t send no Mexicans to my house” - Actual customer
• Even if you get a job, you may be taken off a job because of your skin (there are plenty of stories of people who refuse POC doctors, nurses, etc. I personally was not able to teach a child when abroad because of my skin color, even though I was the only one with a degree).
• Having your name, apperence, hair style mocked, until it’s been absorbed by white culture and becomes “cool.”
• Having your accolades covered up or ignored (A modern example would be that Renegade dance. The creator was a black girl, but a white girl took off with it. They even had her teaching a dance she didn’t create)
• If a show or movie has a POC in it, you have to brace yourself for cries of “wokeness,” even before the movie is out
• Being assumed as a diversity hire, regardless of your cardentials
• Something a bit more basic, but make up, hair products, etc. A lot of viral trends are shown on pale skin only, and some popular products don’t make darker colors at all, or very few shades. It wasn’t until I was in high school that I could find my regular hair products outside of a beauty supply shop.
• POC women and girls are hyper sexualized and are often see as the cause for physical and sexual abuse instead of the victim
• “You speak so well.”
• “Are you the first person in your family to finish highschool/college?”
• Being the only black kid on the class when they start the slavery lessons.
• “Don’t you speak English!?”
• For black women, we are routinely mocked not just outside our race, but inside. Many black men don’t fuck with black women because they drank the kool-aid
• Having to regulate your feelings because you don’t want to be the “angry” black person
• “Oh, I didn’t meant you. You’re one of the good ones.”

Of course, these have different levels of severity, some of these are not just applicable to POC, but this was a sampler of you will. Hope that helps!
