I'm a biracial child of immigrants, one of them being a person of color, neither of them being native speakers of English. My racial identity is complex, and I go to a PWI (Primarily White Institution). One thing anybody who isn't fully White and lives in the USA knows is that it can be hard to be yourself; people just don't get your culture and how big a part of your identity it is.

What makes the whole thing easier for me is watching TV shows starring protagonists of color and witnessing how they create humor from their everyday struggles. One of my favorite shows, the one that I am currently binge watching, is Black-Ish. Here are 10 times the Johnson family spoke to every racial minority in the USA.

DISCLAIMER: A lot of these gifs will say "Black," but I am talking about all racial minorities. This show is specifically about a Black family, but it does an awesome job at discussing minority issues for all people of color as a whole.

1. When people ask if you know a person they know from your race.

No, not all Indians are cousins, Becky.

2. When old white men try to convince you that immigrants are ruining the United States.

"Those damn Mexicans are taking our jobs."

3. When you tell your grandma the super American thing you did with your white friends.

She'll then proceed to feed you every dish your culture has in order to 'cleanse your soul'.

4. When people ask you if you love being American.

Despite this administration not always loving us, we are here and we give our thanks every day. We are real Americans too.

5. When you meet a friend's family and dinner turns into 'ask the kid with the foreign name to teach you history' time.

As your kid's 6-year-old friend from school, I should not have to explain that all of my uncles were in the army during the fascist dictatorship over your pot roast.

6. When you tell your family you're dating a white guy.

"No you are not," is the most common response.

7. When people try to imitate your culture's dancing after watching "Dancing With The Stars" once.

No, the Macarena is not even close to Bachata or Sevillanas.

8. When people make a racist joke and expect you to laugh.

Just don't. Not that hard to not be racist, y'all.

9. When people say, "you're pretty for a (insert race)," and mean it as a compliment.

Those women you just degraded are my sisters, and nobody belittles my sisters.

10. When you voice your fear of Trump and people tell you to stop overreacting.

America is great because of minorities and immigrants, and united we stand.
