it's getting really out of hand, if I say the word "tribal" and there's a black person there she will pull me aside and give me a talk. I'm really tired of it. She's being tribal actually, she thinks the word "tribal" only applies to black people and that they'll beat me up if I say the word. What the hell
she = mom

I hate it when people think the only kind of racism is white people towards black. I sometimes find that black people are more tribal to white people. Racism can be from any race towards any race.

In class, I hear black people spewing it out loudly all the time, and they don't get in trouble.

it's tribal if you're a white person saying it to a black person

that wound is still apparently present and open enough for people to still raise a stink about it, and beyond that it's not actually a debilitating enough issue for you to need to actively put time and effort into making it so it isn't

pick your battles dude

Tell her it means someone is hating some for their skin colour/home country/religion.
