CAn't say I ever wished I was born any other race, but I have thought about that, and do envy that you don't notice black people blushing. The other day at work, there's a raised section in the middle of the newsroom where I was standing trying to get the assignment editors attention, but he was ignoring me and I was talking quite loud (especially for me) and it caught everyone's attention, which was really embarrasing, and I started to really stress, then the entertainment reported walked by (who happens to be black) and said "you're looking really tanned" but I didn't understand what she meant cause I'm slow like that, so I said "Tanned?" and she said really loud "you're red. I was trying to be nice." And I thought the polite thing to do would be not to point it out. I left tat area in quite a hurry.
