我就讀于西伊利諾伊大學(Western Illinois University),我的Gmail經常收到該校校長關于校園內或校園周圍發生的種族主義事件的電子郵件,從學校財產上涂鴉的攻擊性符號,到種族主義者在社交媒體上的帖子,再到餐館里對學生發表的種族主義言論
I attended Western Illinois University and my Gmail was constantly bombarded with emails from the University's president about racist incidents that occur at or around campus. From offensive symbols being painted on school property, to racists social media posts, to racists comments being made to students at restaurants.

我在芝加哥生活了一輩子。那里有很多種族主義者。可悲的是在我的鎮上父母訓練他們的孩子去憎恨其他種族。當我在第四名的時候,我爸爸告訴我多和白人孩子玩,而不是和穆斯林和黑人孩子玩。如果人們看到一個黑人擁有一輛漂亮的汽車,他們就會產生懷疑。不是的提到警察有多腐敗,還有那么多貧困社區
I lived in Chicago all my life. And there is a lot of racist people out there. And whats sad is that in my town parents train their kids to hate other races. When I was in fourth and my dad told me play more with white kids and not with muslim and black kids. And people often get suspicious if they see a black person own a nice car. Not to mention how corrupt the police are. And how there are so many poor neighborhoods

我在芝加哥出生和長大。芝加哥是美國種族歧視最嚴重的城市之一。這些社區都是種族隔離的,甚至連戴利市長也住在芝加哥種族主義最嚴重的街區布里奇波特。年輕人不得不擔心自己是不是在一個不合適的社區穿錯了顏色,但芝加哥警察局是芝加哥最大、最致命的幫派。芝加哥警察使用有色人種無家可歸者,小孩子,甚至老人都被當作打孔機,用槍打靶。芝加哥和庫克郡的司法系統是極端種族主義和腐敗的。每年都有許多黑人因為種族主義警察而被謀殺。如果你有孩子,不要在芝加哥養他們
I was born and raised in Chicago. Chicago is one of the most racist cities in America. The neighborhoods are racially segregated, and even Mayor Daley lives in the most racist neighborhood in Chicago, Bridgeport. Young people have to worry about being in the wrong neighborhood wearing the wrong colors, but the Chicago Police Department is the biggest and most deadly gang in Chicago. The Chicago Police use people of color, the homeless, small children and even the elderly as punching bags and for target practice with their guns. The judicial system of Chicago and Cook County is terribly racist and corrupt. Many blacks are murdered every year, due to racist cops. If you have children, don't raise them in Chicago.

芝加哥是一個偉大的城市,有許多優良的品質。然而,有時芝加哥人對有色人種,特別是印第安人,極端的種族歧視。他們是驕傲的美國人,不能通過看不起其他種族的人來抑制他們的驕傲。暴力犯罪困擾著這個城市,在此期間,人們有時會通過對印第安人種族的人發表尖酸刻薄的評論來獲得替代性的快樂。只有男人不能被責怪,女人同樣是種族主義者,他們千方百計地虐待棕色人種的人。這些人忘記了他們自己缺少許多文明人口所必需的東西唯一的目的是把他們的優勢強加于其他種族的人。他們往往忘記了,他們的土地上的兒女們大多只做案頭工作,或是花寶貴的時間試驗毒品等有害物質,而不是實際做一些建設性的事,而他們的國家則嚴重依賴外界…更多
Chicago IL is a great city with many fine qualities. However, some times people in Chicago are extremely racist towards people of color especially Indians. They are proud Americans and cannot contain their pride by looking down upon people from other race. Violent crime plagues the city and amidst that, people sometimes derive vicarious pleasure by passing snide remarks towards people of Indian ethnicity. Only men can't be blamed, women are equally racists and they leave no stone unturned in abusing people of brown color. These people forget that they themselves lack many things which are necessary attributes of a civilized population, their only objective is to impose their superiority over people of other race. They tend to forget that sons and daughters of their soil mostly confine themselves to desk jobs or spend precious time in experimenting with vicious substances like drugs, instead of actually doing something constructive. Whereas their country heavily depends on outside ... more

我來自佛羅里達州的杰克遜維爾,那里絕對是種族主義者,但和芝加哥的人相比什么也沒有。我記得就像昨天一樣。我當時穿著美國鷹襯衫和合身牛仔褲坐在車里,我碰巧注意到一個警察繼續從我的車旁經過。所以,我只是覺得他只是在做他的工作。后來我注意到其他三個警察也做同樣的事情。不一會兒,他們來到我的車上,大約有7個,讓我出去。然后他們說我符合殺人犯的描述。我想“你一定是在開玩笑吧。西班牙裔警察開始罵我,告訴我他什么都不用告訴我,我應該感激。當這一切發生的時候,我聽到后面的其他警察說我開的車和嫌疑犯不符。我開的車是灰色的,他們在找一輛黑色的車。他們不是色盲,他們很清楚自己在干什么。我大喊“我是無辜的”。白人和西班牙裔警察……更多
I am from Jacksonville Florida, which is definitely racist, but nothing compared to that of Chicago. I remember it like yesterday. I was sitting in my car in my American Eagle shirt and fitted jeans, and I happen to notice a cop continue to pass by my car. So, I just brushed it off thinking that he is only doing his job. I later noticed about 3 other cops do the same thing. Moments later, they came to my car, about 7 of them, and told me to step out. They then say that I fit the description of a murderer. I was like "You have to be kidding me. The hispanic cop then starts cursing me out and telling me that he didn't have to tell me anything and that I should be grateful. While this was happening, I heard the other cops in the background say that the car I was driving doesn't match the suspects. The car I was driving was grey, and they were looking for a black car. They weren't color blind; they knew exactly what they were doing. I yelled out "I'm innocent." The white and hispanic cops ... more

我住在芝加哥。我還需要說更多嗎?我想我應該。他們給芝加哥的天才起了個名字。超級種族隔離。我來自弗吉尼亞,你知道,前聯盟的首都!我對芝加哥的整個制度是多么種族主義感到震驚。這個城市的每一個方面都喊著“留在你的社區”,那里的一切都是系統的種族主義。出生和成長于紀念紀念碑大道上的內戰英雄的地方……看到更嚴重的種族主義是相當令人震驚的。不用說我兩個都不住在這兩個地方現在..我很高興現在住在西海岸。這是美國種族主義最少的地方
I lived in Chicago. Need I say more? I guess I should. They have a name for the phenom in Chicago. Hyper-segregation. I am from Virginia, ya know, capital of the former Confederacy! And I was shocked at how racist the entire system in Chicago is. Every facet of this city screams "stay in your neighborhood" and everything is systematically racist there. Being born and bred from a place that honors Civil War heroes on Monument avenue...it is quite shocking to see worse racism. Needless to say I live in neither place now...I am happy living on the west coast now. It is the least racist place in the United States..

如果你是伊利諾伊州皮奧里亞的黑人,準備好享受你的第八部分和福利。如果你受過教育,并且你想找一份體面的工作來過體面的生活,那你的日子就不好過了。這些白人把舒適的工作留給他們自己,而他們看著黑人為最低工資做苦工。我被召去了通過電話采訪了我的簡歷,然后當我到了那里,故事就隨著我的態度而改變了。皮奧里亞永遠不會是一個適合上流社會的人的地方。這是為貧民區的非思考者們準備的,他們一無所有,一無所有,令人厭惡的沒有受過教育的白人,他們甚至沒有資格勝任自己的工作
If you are black in Peoria, Illinois, be ready to get your section eight and welfare. If you are educated, and you're looking to get a DECENT job to live a decent life, you will have a hard time. These white folks keep the comfortable jobs to themselves while they watch the blacks do the hard labor for minimum wages. I've been called in for interviews with all the excitement over the phone about my resume, then when I get there, the story changed-along with the attitude. Peoria will never be a place for classy people period. It's for the ghetto non-thinkers who are okay with having nothing, and disgusting uneducated whites who don't even qualify for their own jobs.

我在芝加哥出生和長大,現在仍然住在這里。我和我的城市建立了一種愛/恨的關系。讓我說…在芝加哥當黑人本身就是一種犯罪!CPD完全不公平,充滿敵意和種族主義!然而,種族歧視是非常矛盾的。例如,我在79街開車,一個黑人和暴力地區占主導地位,我開車3分鐘就被人攔下。當我被攔下時,一個黑人和一個拉丁美洲警察拿出手電筒,讓我下車,給我戴上手銬!為什么?!?!因為“闖停車標志”。我以前走了很多次這條路。我沒有停下來的標志。時間很晚了,我正要去拜訪一個朋友。這些人繼續問我,好像我是罪犯一樣。他們說“你是個可疑的人。你為什么發抖?”……你們把我銬在手銬上,溫度是30度!我的外套在副駕駛座上,你要我做什么?!?西班牙裔警察…更多
I was born and raised here in Chicago and I still live here today. I have developed a love/hate relationship with my city. Let me say this... Being black in Chicago is a crime in itself! CPD is completely unfair, hostile, and racist! Yet the racism is very contradicting. For instance, I was driving down 79th, a predominantly black and violent area, and I immediately got pulled over 3 minutes into driving. As I got pulled over, a black and a Latino cop took out their flashlights, told me to step out of the car, and put me in handcuffs! For what reason?!?! For "running a stop sign". I took this route many times before. There were no stop signs that I ran. It was late, and I was on my way to visit a friend. These guys continued to question me like I was some type of criminal. They stated "You're suspicious man. Why are you shaking? "... You guys have me in handcuffs and its 30 degrees! My coat is in the passenger seat, what do you expect me to do?!? The Hispanic cop ... more

我不會認為伊利諾伊州是種族主義者。我不想再搬到那里去了。這是全州的問題嗎?或者只是芝加哥?-查肯尼
I wouldn't have thought about Illinois as racist. I don't think I want to move there anymore. Is this a statewide problem? Or just Chicago? - Chkenned

不能代表伊利諾伊州的其他地區,但芝加哥地區由于種族隔離的氛圍被大大低估了。芝加哥市區經常被列為全國種族隔離最嚴重的三大城市之一。郊區只有一點好。很多白人、西班牙裔人,黑人是排外主義者,他們都是自己人。要做好準備,讓人們根據你的膚色/外表,對你至少做出15件事的假設,如果你違反規定,就會表現出震驚的樣子。如果你冒險進入鎮上大多數居民看起來與你不一樣的地方,你會被盯上、評論,可能是騷擾,在某些情況下更糟。在黑頭鼠、低騎的西班牙人、勢利的白人雅皮士和其他香草味的中西部人之間,如果你是個古怪的人,其實沒有多少圈子可以融入其中,有創造力的人,不屬于這些整齊劃一的集團。960萬人,但仍然是平淡的標準例子,……更多
Can't speak for the rest of Illinois, but the Chicago area is vastly underrated for it's racist/segregated atmosphere. Chicago proper is frequently ranked amongst the top 3 most segregated cities in the country. The suburbs are only a shade better. Lots of the whites, hispanics, and blacks are xenophobic and keep to their own kind. Be prepared to have people automatically assume at least 15 things about you based on your skin color/appearance, and then act shocked if you violate protocol. Be careful if you venture into a part of town where most of the residents look different from you. You'll get stares, comments, possibly harassment, and on some occasions worse. Between the black hood rats, low-rider Hispanics, snobby white yuppies, and other vanilla Midwest people, there's not really many circles to fit into if you're a quirky, creative individual who doesn't fall into one of these neatly partitioned off cliques. 9.6 million people and yet still a standard example of bland, ... more
