You acknowledge that this gesture would be less offensive in China, but then project your childhood experiences in the Bronx onto the Spanish basketball team. Spain is also a different country with different racial and cultural complexities.

I'm glad that the U.S. media made such an outcry- and even more glad that the Spanish team made a fool of themselves trying to defend their actions. The sad thing is, nearly every ethnic group discriminates. In Peru, they trash-talked on the Bolivians and, yes, even the Chinese.

He's only two, and he sees mommy happy, and I think he just copies what I'm doing. I believe it starts like that. The kids see the difference and acknowledge it.
