Prejudice
"Are you prejudiced?" asks StapMyVitals. Have you been a victim of prejudice? Are you a columnist for a popular daily newspaper? Don't bang on about how you never judge people on first impressions - no-one will believe you.

My nan
grew up on a farm in the Highlands of Scotland where the darkest shade you were likely to see was a black sheep or The Night. She's a lovely lovely lady, one of the nicest you're likely to meet - so I feel I should justify the next remarks with a little bit of her history.
For years, if I got a blood blister it was a "black man's pinch".
I had better not be a bad boy, because if I was, the black men would get me.
She had several black neighbours when she moved to Gloucester, and if one of them asked for cigarette money or a cup of sugar, she would give it to them, no questions asked.
How does this work?

Black man's pinch...
...still alive and well in suburban Essex. I didn't realise the correct term was "blood blister" until I was in my mid 'teens. There were two black kids at my school: cousins. One of them went down for assault some years after we left. The other ended up on Big Brother. I think lack of black people - or any other minorities - to observe racism towards in 97 per cent white British Essex possibly made me a late developer in the racial-awareness area.
