She was in tears, and I almost cried too.

I had thought that predjudices were a thing of the past. But my sweet filipino tablemate came to me today at lunch in tears.Seems her roommate doesn't want her to even be in the room with her, and calls her really awful names. Perla is the sweetest person I have met and I cannot fathom why her roommate is so awful to her, but then something Perla said rang a bell. Her roommate is against other races, all other races I guess. Perla did go to Kristine our nurse here and Kristen is going to see about getting Perla into a different room. the person she is with seems to be mentally off as well but is highly predjuiced against anyone but a white person. this just made me so angry.What are your feelings on this? shouldnt we all by now be accepting of each other no matter what our races?
