The professor, the first day of class, he said, 'how many WASPs are in the classroom?'
And so I was looking around, 'cause I was looking for this like wasp, that sting people.
So, as I was looking around, I saw people raising their hands. And so finally, I raised
my hand. And--but I was raising my hand to ask a question. And the professor knew I wasn't
a wasp. So he looked at me, he said, "how may I help you?" And then, he said, "you!"
And I said,"Yes, um, what is a wasp?" And so he looked at me with such disdain and such
venom and he said, "White Anglo-Saxon Protestant, of course." And then everybody in the class
laughed. And when they all laughed I was just like, you know, I felt horrible. I sank down
in my seat and that's when I realized, that to speak was not the right thing to do.
